My co-founder and I got pulled out of e-commerce into construction. What we found was a document format that breaks every tool you throw at it — OCR, Textract, Mistral, SVG conversion. Schedules with no consistent structure, elevations no CV model understood. Wrote about the two walls we hit and why we think construction needs infrastructure not another UI.

There is some video of the screen while using your product in https://www.getanchorgrid.com/developer Do you have a more detailed example?

What specifically would be most useful — a door detection example, spec parsing, or elevation detection?

You can use it like this --

Upload a pdf first: curl -X POST https://api.anchorgrid.ai/v1/documents \\ 90 + -H "X-API-Key: <your-api-key>" \\ 91 + -F "[email protected]"

then run the door detection for the pdf: curl -X POST https://api.anchorgrid.ai/v1/drawings/detection/doors \ -H "X-API-Key: <your-api-key>" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "document_id": "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000", "page_numbers": [1, 2, 3] }

I also added an example PDF (just so you can interact with the results live)
