Abandoned claude and moved to gpt 5.4 with codex. 10x better.

Glad abusing words in my list are not in that. but its surprising that they use regex for sentiments.

That is the catch, yes on premise air gapped will be provided, this is purely inbuilt parsers no cloud dependency. We will also have a managed dedicated environment, if you don't want to manage the complex infra yourself. Even in Hosted model, we have provision to use your own s3 storage (only used for async parsing pipeline and file will be wiped after 3 hours)so file never touches our disc. We had considered this from a customer point of view and while designing the system. In my early career i had worked in GIS industry and know the privacy and the data security that is required for CAD and GIS files.

We’re not just dumping primitives, we extract full CAD context including entities, layers, blocks, colors, and topology. That metadata allow reconstruct structure deterministically. IFC is great when available, but in most real-world pipelines DWG is still the source of truth, often degraded. Our focus is making that usable without relying on probabilistic vision layers. People depend on PDF for cad files due to its portability and to avoid software dependency/licensing, we aim solving that, any machine or pipeline that needs CAD or GIS data for analytics, search, or reasoning can operate on our structured output without requiring a native CAD or ESRI license.

As a part of our product development, we had fought with PDF so much, even we have a generic PDF parser with triple pipeline (One for single column, another for multi column and third for complex table based layouts) yet we are not getting 100% accuracy, I would say that it's bit risky to bet on PDF. PDF often is the most complex format ever made and it was never made for data extraction. And You are right that vision models are the only way but hallucination is real.

Happy to say that yes. We are in final round of polishing. mostly opening in couple of weeks. We are mainly targeting such uses cases where you can add CAD files into RAG or analytics or search pipeline without losing source of truth or geometry. I will definitely post here when we are ready, keep an eye and it will be free during beta, so you can play how much you want with it.

We’re taking a different path, building a parsing engine that converts CAD (DWG/DXF) into fully structured JSON with preserved semantics (no ML in the critical path).We also have a separate GIS parser that extracts vector data (features, layers, geometries) independently, Like to know how you handle consistency and reproducibility across runs using models and how you make it affordable, especially at scale. because as far as i know CAD and GIS need precision and accuracy.

True. Everytime when i ask something gpt, it use to spit out long stories. Claude ans gemini are always straight to point.

My experience is completely the opposite. For generic, low-complexity CRUD tasks, Codex works fine. But when it comes to complex bug fixing, it completely fails, especially with middleware pipelines and complex authentication issues. Gemini also shines, codex is absolutely terrible for complex coding.

Open AI seems to be jack of all trades.i randomly use chatgpt for random questions, never for a serious task. They should check how anthropic is laserfocussed on coding and b2b segment.

We use bunny.net dns for Geo DNS with their dns based load balancing for my websocket infra. They have awesome community and support is top-notch. Getting a response from Cloudflare community is like taking a lottery if you are free plan.
