The "After-Hours Lead Leak" Problem
Clients inquiring about LEED-certified sustainable design options, like low-VOC materials or passive solar integration, at midnight, but your team is offline, leading to lost bids on eco-friendly commercial projects
Prospective developers asking for preliminary geotechnical site assessments or soil stability reports after hours, only to turn to competitors who respond faster with BIM-compatible data
Weekend queries on CAD file compatibility with AutoCAD or Revit formats going unanswered, causing frustration and forcing clients to seek other architects for prefab component integrations
Urgent revision requests for building permit drawings or structural load calculations during evenings, missed entirely because support isn't available round-the-clock
International clients in different time zones emailing about AISC structural integrity specs for steel fabrication, with responses delayed by days, risking project timelines
Trade show follow-ups turning cold because booth staff can't handle inbound questions outside event hours on modular construction demos or CNC machining tolerances
Build Your Always-Available Support System
We've engineered chatbots for over 50 architecture firms, integrating them seamlessly with tools like Revit and Bluebeam to handle real project workflows.
Why Choose Us
Here's the thing: architects like you juggle deadlines, client meetings, and site visits, but client needs don't clock out. Our custom chatbot acts like a vigilant site foreman—always on duty, trained on your portfolio, standards, and processes. It fields questions on everything from LEED certifications to facade detailing, qualifies leads, and even pulls up past project examples. No more generic bots; we build this to fit your exact workflow, ensuring instant, accurate responses that keep your firm in the conversation 24/7.
What Makes Us Different:
Capture Every Architectural Opportunity
Never Miss a Midnight Muse
Never Miss a Midnight Muse: You're probably thinking about that big residential project lead that slipped away last weekend—maybe a query on optimizing MEP systems for energy efficiency. Our chatbot responds instantly to after-hours inquiries on space planning or material sourcing like recycled steel, capturing details and scheduling calls—resulting in 25% more qualified leads without extra staff, as seen in our beta with mid-sized firms during peak bidding seasons.
Boost Client Confidence Like a Solid Foundation
Boost Client Confidence Like a Solid Foundation: Let's be honest, delayed responses erode trust faster than a poorly poured slab. With round-the-clock availability, clients get immediate answers on IBC compliance codes or 3D rendering timelines for facade designs, leading to higher satisfaction scores (up 30% in user reports) and repeat business from engineering firms we've helped scale their portfolios.
Streamline Your Workflow, Not Add to It
Streamline Your Workflow, Not Add to It: Picture your inbox free from routine spec checks on ASTM material standards. The chatbot handles 70% of initial inquiries autonomously, like verifying bolt shear strengths, freeing your team for creative design work while ensuring no lead evaporates during crunch times like Q4 bid seasons for infrastructure projects.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's chatbot, we'd lose weekend inquiries on our urban infill projects—clients just moved on to competitors. Now, it answers questions on zoning variances and historic preservation guidelines right away, and we've closed three deals in the last quarter, including a $1.5M mixed-use development, that we wouldn't have otherwise. It's like having an extra junior architect on call 24/7."

"Our firm was buried in after-hours emails about sustainable materials for commercial builds, like FSC-certified timber sourcing. The custom bot from AIQ integrates with our Revit files and responds in seconds to queries on load-bearing capacities. Response times dropped from 48 hours to instant, and our client retention jumped 15% in six months, securing two repeat contracts for high-rise offices."
Mark Thompson
Project Director, Apex Structures Inc.
"Honestly, I was skeptical, but this chatbot handled a flurry of queries during our holiday shutdown about retrofit designs for seismic upgrades. It even pulled up relevant case studies from our portfolio on earthquake-resistant framing. Landed us a $2M hospital wing project we nearly missed, all while our team was off enjoying the break."

Simple 3-Step Process
Discovery and Blueprinting
We dive into your firm's unique challenges—like handling queries on BIM models or client RFIs—and map out how the chatbot fits your daily operations, from initial concept chats to detailed spec reviews.
Custom Build and Integration
Our engineers construct the AI from the ground up, training it on your project archives and linking it to tools like AutoCAD or your project management software for seamless, real-time responses.
Testing and Launch
We simulate real scenarios, like late-night questions on structural loads, refine for accuracy, then deploy it 24/7 on your site—ready to capture leads while you focus on designing.
Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the chatbot handle technical questions about building codes or software compatibility?
We train it specifically on your firm's knowledge base, including local codes, past projects, and tools like AutoCAD. For instance, if a client asks about IBC compliance for a high-rise, it pulls relevant details and examples. It's not guessing—it's like a digital reference library built for your workflow. We've seen it resolve 80% of such queries without human input, saving architects hours weekly. If it's too complex, it flags for your team with context.
Can it integrate with our existing project management tools?
Absolutely. We create deep, two-way API connections to systems like Asana, Procore, or your CRM. Say a client inquires about a project's status mid-design phase—the bot checks live data and responds accurately. This eliminates manual lookups and keeps everything synced. In one architecture firm we worked with, this cut response delays from days to minutes, helping them secure a multi-phase commercial contract.
What if the chatbot can't answer a question—does it just fail?
No way. It's designed with escalation protocols: if something's beyond its scope, like a custom structural analysis, it politely gathers details and notifies your team instantly via email or Slack, including the full chat log. This ensures nothing falls through, much like a safety net on a construction site. Our clients report seamless handoffs, maintaining client trust without awkward silences.
How long does it take to set up for our architecture firm?
Typically 4-6 weeks from discovery to launch, depending on complexity. We start with a deep dive into your processes—reviewing sample inquiries on things like facade systems or client briefs—then build and test iteratively. For a mid-sized firm, we had it live in five weeks, handling initial queries on renovation projects right away. It's field-tested to minimize disruption during your busy seasons.
Is this secure for sharing sensitive design information?
Security is non-negotiable, especially with proprietary blueprints or client data. We use enterprise-grade encryption, role-based access, and comply with standards like GDPR and SOC 2. The bot only accesses what you authorize, and all interactions are logged for audits. In construction, where IP protection matters, we've built it to anonymize sensitive details until verified users engage—giving firms peace of mind without exposing vulnerabilities.
Will it really work 24/7 without constant maintenance?
Yes, it's engineered for reliability, running on scalable cloud infrastructure that handles spikes, like during industry expos when queries flood in. We include monitoring and quarterly updates based on usage data, but no daily tweaks needed—it's self-optimizing. One client saw it manage 200+ interactions during a week-long conference without a hitch, capturing leads that boosted their quarterly pipeline by 20%.
