Now onboarding early design partners

Upgrade your design process.
Catch issues before they cost you.

Aplomb brings automated quality control to building design. We help architecture and engineering teams keep quality visible throughout the design process - so errors are caught in minutes, not discovered on site months later.

The problem

Design review is still manual, slow, and error-prone

Modern buildings are designed by many disciplines working in parallel. Keeping every model consistent, compliant, and coordinated is critical — yet most teams still rely on spot checks, spreadsheets, and marathon review meetings.

Errors surface too late

Issues that take minutes to fix in a model become change orders and rework once they reach site — at 10–100× the cost.

Coordination is fragmented

Architects, engineers, and consultants exchange models over email and ad-hoc calls. Versions drift and accountability blurs.

Senior time is wasted

Experienced professionals spend hours on repetitive checking that software should handle — instead of designing.

The platform

Continuous verification for the built environment

Aplomb plugs into the design tools your team already uses and works quietly in the background — turning quality control from a milestone event into a continuous process.

01

Intelligent quality assurance

Your project standards and industry best practices, monitored continuously — so quality stays visible from concept to delivery.

02

Cross-discipline coordination

Surface issues between disciplines early, with the context everyone needs to resolve them quickly.

03

Actionable reporting

Live dashboards show model health at a glance. Export audit-ready reports for clients, reviewers, and project stakeholders.

04

Your standards, encoded

Capture your firm's quality standards once and apply them consistently across every project and every team member.

How it works

From model to verified — in three steps

  1. 1

    Connect

    Aplomb integrates directly with industry-standard BIM authoring tools. Setup takes minutes, and your team keeps working exactly as before.

  2. 2

    Verify

    Aplomb keeps a continuous eye on your project, flagging quality issues, inconsistencies, and coordination risks as they emerge.

  3. 3

    Resolve

    Issues arrive with context, location, and suggested ownership. Track resolution across the whole project team from one place.

Who it's for

Built for the whole project team

Architecture firms

Deliver cleaner models, protect your fee from rework, and give project architects confidence that nothing slips through.

Engineering consultants

Verify deliverables before they leave the office and coordinate with other disciplines without endless back-and-forth.

Developers & owners

Get independent, data-backed visibility into design quality before construction locks the cost in.

Security & trust

Your models are your IP. We treat them that way.

Building data is commercially sensitive. Aplomb is built cloud-native on AWS with security as a first-class requirement, not an afterthought.

  • Encryption in transit and at rest
  • Cloud infrastructure hosted on AWS
  • Role-based access control per project
  • Your data is never used to train models for other customers

Company

Built by people who've lived the problem

Aplomb was founded by AEC professionals and software engineers who spent years watching avoidable design errors turn into expensive construction problems. We're building the contech the industry has been missing — a quality layer for the tools design teams use every day.

Practitioners first

We build for the people doing the work. If it doesn't save a project team real time in week one, it doesn't ship.

Trust through transparency

Every automated finding is explainable and traceable. Professionals stay in control of professional judgment.

Quietly ambitious

The built environment is the world's largest industry — and one of its least digitized. We're patient, focused, and here for the long run.

Become an early design partner

We're working closely with a small group of forward-thinking firms to shape the product. If you'd like early access — or just want to talk about design quality — we'd love to hear from you.
