8-Sheet Permit Plan Set in Four Days, Drawn by an AI Pipeline
The brief. An 8-sheet plan set: cover, site plan, architectural plans/elevations/sections, structural, plumbing and electrical sheets. Delivered as DXF + PDF.
How I built it. Instead of drafting each sheet by hand, I built a scripted drafting pipeline with Claude Code and Python (ezdxf). It generates the DXF sheets, renders them for self-QA and compiles the PDF set. Revisions became code changes: the set went through Rev A → D, and the full set rebuilds in about 50 seconds.
The result.
Paid in full, four days after award
Client: "Everything looks good"
Rehired the same day on an hourly contract for modifications
Why it matters for your business: the same approach (AI plus code plus a human check) turns any repetitive, rules-based production work into a pipeline.
