Depth over frequency
Depth over frequency. One genuinely technical article a month beats four generic ones, and there is no penalty for publishing nothing in a slow month.
Every article here is written from work already done. If it cannot be, it does not go on this blog.

- CAD/CAM
- AI in AEC
- QA & Releases

What the first articles cover
These are the subjects the first articles cover. If you need the answer to one of them before we publish it, ask — it is the kind of question a Feasibility Review exists for.
Revit 2027 and .NET 10 — what plugin owners need to decide now
One codebase with conditional compilation, or forks — and what each costs to maintain.
Revit & AutodeskWhy your Revit add-in breaks during a sync with central
Transactions, sub-transactions and failure handling in a worksharing environment.
Revit & AutodeskTesting a plugin across Revit 2022–2027 without testing everything
How to prioritise a version matrix that has stopped being testable by hand.
QA & ReleasesWhat an AI-generated Revit prototype actually costs to ship
The distance between a demo that runs and software a team opens every morning.
AI in AECDeploying add-ins to 300 locked-down workstations
Signing, antivirus, manifests, silent install, rollback.
QA & ReleasesDeterministic rules or an LLM? Choosing for code compliance
Why reproducibility decides the architecture.
AI in AECAPS translation costs at production volume
Caching and version-diffing, with the arithmetic.
Practice notes“LOD 350” means four different things
Writing LOD into a contract so handover does not become an argument.
Practice notes
From prototype to production
AI made prototypes cheap. We make them ship.
A Feasibility Review is a 30-minute technical session with the engineers who would build it, followed by a written verdict: what the API actually allows, where it will break at scale, and what production costs. No obligation to proceed.
- No charge, no obligation
- Straight answers
- Written verdict
- Senior engineers, not account managers
