Free plan reviewThe Problem
Volume is up. Headcount isn't. You get paid the same regardless of how long the review takes.
Right as codes gain complexity, the industry is losing its most knowledgeable professionals.
With fewer students studying civil engineering, ICC certifications are down.
AI tools excel in environments that are data rich and require repetitive tasks. With Mason, plan reviewers can wrap up their tedious work early.

Sixteen AI-drafted comments per letter, on average — before your reviewer reads the cover sheet.
Senior reviewers get back to judgment work — gray-area violations, local preferences, edge cases.
Mason updates with every new CRC, CPC, CEC, CWUIC, and Energy Code cycle. Your team never reviews against a stale mental model of the 2022 codes.
Junior staff backed by Mason catch more, miss less, and get a second pair of eyes on fire and life safety.
Ensure response letters are consistent in style, tone, and code citations, and cover all code sections thoroughly.

Free plan reviewHow It Works
Three steps. No new software stack. No rip-and-replace. Mason fits into your existing review workflow as an AI-powered first pass.
01 · Upload the Plan Set
Drop in the applicant's permit set. Mason's computer-vision model reads the floorplans — walls, doors, windows, fixtures — at 97% accuracy before a human reviewer touches the file.
02 · AI Drafts the First-Pass Comments
Mason checks the full plan against CRC, CPC, CEC, CWUIC, and Energy Code and pre-populates a draft comment letter — every flagged item linked to a clickable code citation.
03 · Your Reviewer Refines and Signs Off
The reviewer reads the draft, applies professional judgment, edits language, adds anything missing, exports a word doc, and sends it to the jurisdiction.

When fire and life safety are on the line, you can't rely on AI that's right 80% of the time. We built Mason knowing that reviewers' reputations depend on what they sign off on — so we invest half of our engineering time in evaluation.
Practicing plan check professionals agree with Mason's code checks 96% of the time.
Half our engineering time goes to tests and synthetic edge cases. We track even a one-inch drift in segmenting a fixture. Accuracy is our core product.
