I couldn’t agree more. The fact this data isn’t programmable is really holding the industry behind.
When building PlanGrid there were so many things we wished we could have done had this been unlocked.
I’m now working on doing just that.

I’m building a similar platform, with electrical being furthest ahead - SLD, panels, lights, power, comms.
Also do doors, windows, and mechanical equipment.

EE on HN and from construction!
I use to draft in AutoCad and Revit before switching to software.
Saw your comment around using Gemini. I’d love to chat with you. I started building something for the build side of the electrical world, but eventually want to make the jump to the design side of the house.
