How Lyne works
A careful first pass on every sheet.
Lyne reads your PDF drawing set, checks it against your company's rules and drawing standards, and hands back a marked-up set: every issue numbered on the drawing and listed with what to look at. Your reviewer still makes the calls. Lyne does the tedious first pass, so their time goes where it matters.
A review, start to finish
Four steps. A few minutes.
No setup per job, no extra photos, no tagging. One PDF in, one marked-up set out.
Export a PDF
Straight from your drawing software: Chief Architect, Cabinet Vision, 2020, Mozaik, AutoCAD or anything else that exports a PDF.
Drop it into Lyne
Pick the product line it was built to. Lyne shows how many sheets the review uses before anything runs.
Lyne reads every page
Two separate AI readers read the dimensions. Where they disagree, Lyne takes a closer look; if it still isn't sure, it asks instead of guessing. All math is done by plain code, never by AI.

What Lyne checks
The everyday things that cost you on the job.
Lyne focuses on what can be checked from the drawing itself, and checks it the same way every time.
Dimension math
Every dimension string is added up and compared to its overall.
30" + 24" + 33" + 24" = 111", but the overall says 115".
Missing dimensions
Cabinet widths, heights and depths, wall lengths, windows and openings, soffits, toe kicks, knee walls.
A soffit is drawn with no height dimensioned.
Specs and models
Appliance and insert model numbers, hardware for drawn features, who supplies what, lighting, countertop material.
Lift-up doors are drawn with no lift hardware noted.
Fits
Will it actually fit? Using your numbers: your stock panel length, your sink-base clearance, your filler sizes.
An 18" tilt-out is drawn in a 17" opening.
Views that disagree
The same thing sized one way on the plan and another way on the elevation.
The plan shows 36", the elevation shows 33".
Your drawing standards
Your shop's own rules: sheet numbering and order, scales on plans, stack dimensions on every elevation.
Floor plan has no scale printed.
Reading the marks
Every flag points to its spot on the drawing.
Each mark on the drawing matches a numbered item in the list.
A problem that needs fixing, like a missing dimension or numbers that don't add up.
Something Lyne can't confirm from the drawing alone. It may be fine. Ask.
The AI couldn't pinpoint the exact spot, so the mark shows the area.
Lyne's job
The routine first pass.
- Math and missing information, on every sheet, every time
- Fits and clearances, using your shop's numbers
- Specs and models anyone will need to order
- Your drawing standards, applied the same way on every job
- Questions when something can't be confirmed, instead of a guess
Your reviewer's job
The calls only a person can make.
- Design judgment: whether a choice is the right one
- Outside information: appliance spec sheets, earlier revisions, site conditions
- Shop decisions: scope, methods, who does what
- Custom one-off details that change on every job
Lyne is a co-pilot, not an autopilot. AI can make mistakes: always verify flagged items before fabrication.
How it behaves
Made to be checked, not taken on faith.
It asks instead of guessing
When a number can't be read clearly or a rule can't be confirmed, Lyne asks the designer a question rather than inventing an answer.
Your numbers, not ours
Stock lengths, filler sizes and clearances are your company's settings. Lyne never assumes a standard you didn't set.
Every flag shows its source
Each issue names where it is and quotes the numbers it used, so it can be checked in seconds.
Your drawings
Your drawings stay yours.
Lyne never sells or shares your drawings or your data. See the privacy policy for exactly what is kept and for how long.
What you need
A PDF and a computer.
- Mac or Windows
- A PDF exported from your drawing software (scans work, but with lower accuracy)
- Any size set: one sheet or a whole house
