01 — AI-powered search

Natural language IS code search

Search Indian Standard codes using plain English instead of manually browsing scanned PDFs and fragmented documents. Ask exactly what you need — the way you'd ask a colleague.

Retrieves clauses, tables, and provisions automatically
No boolean queries or keyword guessing required
Works across multiple IS codes in one query
Returns grounded answers with references
Example queries
"Minimum cover for beams as per IS 456"
"Lap length for Fe500 steel"
"Seismic zone classification as per IS 1893"
"Development length formula in RCC"
02 — Grounded answers

Answers generated from code sections only

Unlike generic AI tools, responses are generated only from retrieved IS code content — not from training data alone. This directly reduces hallucinations and improves engineering reliability.

Reduced hallucinations
Answers are constrained to retrieved code sections, not general AI knowledge.
Engineering reliability
Technical accuracy is grounded in actual BIS document content.
Source traceability
Every claim traces back to a specific clause, table, or code provision.
Code-grounded explanations
Explanations reference the exact IS code text, not paraphrased summaries.
03 — Clause references

Inspect every source clause

Every answer includes the supporting references engineers need for verification. Clauses, tables, and code provisions are surfaced alongside responses — not buried in footnotes.

Clauses cited by number and section
Table references included where relevant
Source excerpts shown for quick verification
Designed for workflows where traceability matters
Sample reference card
IS 456 : 2000Clause 26.4.1 — Nominal cover
"Nominal cover is the design depth of concrete cover to all steel reinforcements, including links. It is the dimension used in design and indicated in the drawings."
Table 16Section 26RCC — Cover requirements
04 — PDF problem

Faster than manual PDF search

Indian Standard codes are notoriously hard to search — scanned formats, fragmented layouts, table-heavy sections. The platform removes that friction entirely.

Without IS Code.ai
Open multiple PDFs, search manually
Scanned pages with no text search
Fragmented formatting across editions
Cross-reference clauses manually
20–40 minutes per code lookup
With IS Code.ai
Ask in plain English, get the clause
Full text search across all standards
Unified interface, all editions
Cross-references surfaced automatically
Answer in under 3 seconds
05 — Engineering workflows

Built around how engineers actually work

Covers the full range of engineering lookups — from routine concrete cover checks to complex structural and MEP detailing.

01
RCC beam and column design — cover, spacing, reinforcement requirements
02
Structural load calculations — dead, live, wind, seismic as per IS 875 and IS 1893
03
Reinforcement detailing — lap length, development length, stirrup spacing
04
Seismic compliance — ductile detailing, zone classification, IS 13920 provisions
05
Construction quality — concrete mix, curing, formwork, IS 516 test provisions
06 — Standards coverage

Engineering standards supported

Search and understand provisions across key engineering standards including Civil IS Codes, and soon NBC, NFPA, and ISO.

07 — Source transparency

Inspect every reference behind each answer

Engineers, consultants, and QA teams can inspect the retrieved code sections behind every response — improving confidence and enabling independent verification.

Engineers — verify design decisions against actual IS clauses before signing off
Consultants — cite specific provisions confidently in reports and submissions
Students — understand the actual code text, not just paraphrased summaries
QA / QC teams — trace every requirement back to its source provision
Construction professionals — confirm site requirements from IS standards directly
08 — Time savings

Stop repeating the same manual searches

Routine code lookups consume hours across a project lifecycle. Every query answered in seconds is time redirected to actual engineering decisions.

No more PDF hunting
Instant search replaces manual PDF browsing across dozens of documents.
Auto cross-referencing
Related clauses are surfaced automatically — no manual clause hopping.
Faster cover checks
Nominal cover, clear cover, and exposure condition lookups in seconds.
Formula retrieval
Development length, lap length, and mix design formulas on demand.
09 — Secure Document Viewer

Safely view the original source clauses

We built a proprietary secure PDF viewer directly into the chat. View exact watermarked clauses, verify tables, and inspect provisions without ever downloading raw PDF files.

10 — Native Multi-Language AI

Ask and get answers in your language

Language shouldn't be a barrier to code compliance. Our AI natively supports multiple languages—allowing you to search engineering standards and receive highly technical, accurate answers in Hindi, English, and more without clunky translation widgets.

11 — Built for the Field (Mobile-First)

Take engineering standards on-site

Site engineers and auditors can now access thousands of IS codes seamlessly from their mobile devices. The fully responsive UI ensures that checking cover provisions or material standards on-site takes seconds, right from your phone.
