Built for architects

Better project delivery, from the first detail to the final review.

  • Start every project further ahead

    Find proven details, families, and past project work faster, so teams spend less time searching and recreating what has already been solved.

  • Catch issues before construction

    Review projects against firm standards, project requirements, and code requirements earlier, reducing the risk of RFIs, rework, and costly downstream fixes.

  • Turn firm knowledge into everyday practice

    Keep standards, proven solutions, and lessons learned accessible across projects and offices, helping teams collaborate better and deliver more consistently.

One platform, connected across every stage of the project.

Detail Management

Find, reuse, and reference every detail your firm has drawn.

  • Describe the condition and how it is built. AI search reads the drawing itself and returns what your firm already solved, whether that is a vetted typical or a detail from a project four years ago.
  • Live section details come in as references you can reuse.
  • Analytics show which details your teams keep reaching for, so you know which ones deserve to become firm standards.

Family Management

Find any family. Trust what you place.

  • Describe what you need the way you would say it out loud.
  • Our own proprietary AI model reads the family itself, so it finds the right one across loadable and system families, model groups, categories and your own standards, with no tags to keep up.
  • A health score shows what is worth trusting, and flags the families dragging model performance down. Pirros automates the upkeep.

Quality Management System

Cross-check the set against your standards, your specs, and the code.

  • The Quality Management System runs on Mira, so it reads a project the way a reviewer would, against the standards your firm keeps in Pirros.
  • Every finding names the sheet, the location and the standard behind it, so issues get resolved before they become RFIs.
  • Pirros surfaces what to check. Your team makes the call, and a licensed professional still signs the drawings.

Illustration: the Quality Management System checks a floor plan against the firm’s standards and raises two issues on it — a door approach that may not hold the required clearance, assigned to a teammate, and a beam whose fireproofing label may not match its assembly, offered to Mira to resolve. The drawing, the issues and the names are made up for this page.

Review & Collaboration

The whole project team, collaborating in real time.

  • Group the details and families a project needs into a stash as you find them.
  • Send it to a colleague to mark up, then stage the whole thing for Revit in one go.
  • Leadership, production staff and BIM teams work on it together, and nobody has to open Revit to take part.

Pirros is the AI project hub for architects and engineers, built for Revit. It makes every detail and Revit family your firm has drawn searchable by what is actually drawn, marks the firm-approved version, and places it straight into the active Revit view. Its Quality Management System reviews a set against your standards, specs and code. More than 400 firms worldwide build on Pirros.

Revit is where the drawings get made. Keeping track of what the firm has already drawn takes a second tool. Architecture firms use Pirros for that: upload past projects and every detail and family becomes searchable without tagging, firm standards are kept apart from one-off project work, and anyone can place a vetted detail into Revit from a sidebar.

Search for the condition, not the file name. Pirros reads the geometry and notes inside every detail your firm has drawn, so a search for a 1-hour rated metal stud partition finds it across projects, firm abbreviations and typos included. Compare options side by side, see which are firm-approved and which are reference only, then place one into the active view. Lake Flato Architects now spends 50% less time opening old models.

No. Pirros reads the drawing, not the file name, so it works on projects as they were saved, inconsistent names and all. Upload past projects and they are searchable right away. Details arrive linked to the sheets they sit on, duplicates are grouped, and your firm's vetted version is marked. There is no tagging scheme or folder structure to agree on first.

Make the approved version the easiest one to reach for. In Pirros, every detail carries a status (firm-approved or reference only) and vetted standards rank first in search. Details pulled from past projects can require a senior sign-off before they reach a set. Update a standard once and every project sees the current version. The Quality Management System also flags a detail in the set that has drifted from the approved one.

The Pirros Quality Management System reviews every sheet against your firm standards, your specs and the codes you build to, and checks the set against itself: callouts that point nowhere, keynotes missing from the legend. Each finding names the sheet, the location and the standard behind it. Pirros surfaces what to check. Your team makes the call, and a licensed professional still signs the drawings.

Pirros keeps every detail your firm has drawn searchable, linked to the project and sheets it came from, so the answer to a tricky condition outlasts the person who drew it. Redlines on a stash stay with the details they explain. And when a junior reaches for the approved detail by default, that is how firm standards get taught.

Firms save 30+ hours per project with Pirros. At Lake Flato Architects, teams spend 50% less time opening old models, and the firm saves more than $200,000 a year, counted as time saved at its billable rate. The savings come from reuse: less time hunting through old projects, fewer details redrawn from scratch, and every delivered project adding to what the next team starts from.

No. Pirros never trains on customer models or drawings. Each firm's data sits in its own private workspace, and no other firm can see, search or retrieve your details or families. Pirros is SOC 2 Type II certified, and our security page covers encryption, access and how your data is deleted when you leave.

Both, in different ways. Architects and production staff use it to find a trusted detail or family and place it into Revit. Project architects use the Quality Management System to check a set before it goes out. BIM managers promote what teams actually reuse into firm standards and watch family health across projects. Principals and reviewers can redline details without a Revit seat.
