We Know What You're Dealing With.

You bought the metal building. Maybe it's already on the trailer. Now you need a PE-stamped foundation package for the permit — and every local engineer you call is quoting 2–4 weeks and won't give you a straight price.

Meanwhile, the building sits. The schedule slips. The client starts asking questions. And you're stuck in the middle of a process nobody designed to be fast.

It doesn't have to be this way.

At minimum: your building manufacturer's reaction tables and anchor bolt plans. DXF format is preferred for highest accuracy. We also accept PDF, DWG, JPG, and PNG. A soils report helps but isn't required.
Most projects are completed and delivered within days. Traditional engineering firms take 2–4 weeks. Our AI-accelerated process with PE review compresses this dramatically.
No. Our system was custom-built by a dedicated software engineer specifically for structural foundation engineering. It's a permanent, proprietary platform — not a wrapper around a public AI tool. Every output is reviewed by a licensed PE.
