For architects working in Northern Ireland
The planning and building-control legwork, done before you start.
ArchAI pulls the guidance you must comply with and the live applications happening around your site into one place — so you spend less time hunting documents and portals, and more time designing.
Planning & Building-Reg Guidance
Search Northern Ireland planning policy and building regulations, ask a question in plain English, or generate a project compliance checklist — every answer cited to the source clause and scoped to your council.
- Plain-English answers with a link to the exact source clause
- Scope results to a council's local development plan + NI-wide rules
- Generate a project compliance checklist grouped by work area
Planning Register — Search & Tracker
Search the live NI Planning Register with every official filter, open the full application on one screen, and track the ones that matter — with key-date alerts, a map, and AI summaries of application documents.
- Full advanced search of the live register — grid, filters, CSV
- Track applications: status changes, decisions and new documents
- Key-date alerts, map, and AI document summaries
Why ArchAI
Two jobs every NI project starts with — in one workspace.
Signpost the rules early
Surface the policies and building-reg requirements that apply to a specific project before design decisions are locked in — not after.
See what's happening nearby
Search and monitor live planning applications on the official register — decisions, documents and key dates — without living in the portal.
One council context
Pick a council once and both products focus on it: its development plan, its guidance, and its live applications.
