mbue offers AI-powered overlays and submittals. SmartOverlays is a web-based tool that automatically compares two versions of architectural drawings or specifications. It identifies every change — additions, deletions, or edits. It also analyses spec documents using Smart Specs, flagging prioritised modifications across large documents.
Targeted at architects, project managers, BIM coordinators, and quality assurance teams, mbue is aimed firms handling frequent drawing revisions or managing complex documentation.
It’s especially useful for reducing review time and minimising human error before issuance.
mbue’s AI engine uses computer vision and natural language processing to recognise architectural elements, callouts, and annotations. It distinguishes between meaningful changes and moved content. It then generates detailed, risk-prioritised change reports.
