All questions
Yes. Share your templates, title blocks, sample sheets, layer conventions, Revit structure and naming standards. We confirm what applies before production begins.
Yes. A free start on one defined task is often the best way to test communication, standards and output quality before a larger engagement.
Architive's core role is architectural production support. We turn approved designs, project information and client direction into drawings, models and visuals. Any design responsibility is agreed explicitly in writing.
We prepare permit-support drawing packages using the information and local requirements provided. Where law requires a local license, signature or seal, the client appoints the appropriate professional.
Pricing depends on the source information, deliverables, level of detail, schedule and revision structure. You receive a written quotation before work begins. Hourly support is also available, with rates starting from $16 per hour.
The quotation states the included review stages and revision rounds. Corrections to missed agreed instructions are completed at no charge; new scope is quoted before proceeding.
Yes. We can review and sign an NDA before detailed project information is shared.
Typical formats include DWG and PDF for CAD, RVT and PDF for BIM, and JPG, PNG or video for visualization. The exact deliverables are listed in the quotation.
Yes, selectively and with human oversight. AI may support early exploration, research and repetitive tasks, but it does not replace accurate CAD drafting, Revit modelling or professional review. Final deliverables are checked against the source information and agreed project standards.
