Marked Up
Marked Up is a web-based quality check assistant for construction drawing sets that applies a vision-language model to highlight plan issues such as callouts, door tags, and sheet indexes before peer review.
Marked Up targets teams that still review large PDF drawing packages by hand. You upload plan sheets and the service returns machine-generated flags where something may be inconsistent or worth a closer look. The public homepage positions the product around tedious checks like callouts, door tag counts, and sheet index review.
The legal terms describe a closed-loop deployment where customer uploads stay on the vendor-controlled servers, with uploads deleted after about seven days unless you grant longer retention. The same document states that accuracy is not guaranteed and that output is informational, so licensed professionals remain responsible for code compliance and construction decisions.
Because the stack is browser-based, reviewers can use it without installing a desktop CAD title, which suits remote QC and short-turn submittal reviews. Early-access features mentioned on the marketing site may change, so confirm which checks are generally available before you standardize a QC checklist on top of the tool.
Pair Marked Up with your normal QA process: treat suggestions as triage signals, not as stamped approvals, especially on life-safety and structural sheets.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Fits teams that live in PDF workflows rather than a single native model file.
- No CAD install requirement lowers friction for consultants and owners.
- Written terms spell out retention and training policies in plain language.
Cons
- Vendor disclaims completeness; you still need human sign-off on code-critical items.
- Not a replacement for BIM clash detection inside federated models.
- Feature list on the public site is short; confirm scope with the vendor before rollout.

Frequently asked questions
Is Marked Up the same as Bluebeam or a PDF markup tool?
It is closer to automated QC suggestions on uploaded plans than to general PDF markup. Compare your markup stack separately; Marked Up focuses on AI-assisted checks described on markedup.ai.
Does Marked Up work with Revit or AutoCAD files directly?
The marketing flow talks about uploading plan documents through the web app. Use exports or published PDFs from Revit, AutoCAD, or other authoring tools unless the vendor documents a native link.
How long does Marked Up keep my drawings?
The terms say uploads are stored for about seven days and then deleted unless you give permission to keep them longer. Read the current terms on markedup.ai before uploading confidential projects.
Can Marked Up replace my architect stamp or engineer seal?
No. The terms state that suggestions are informational and that you should consult qualified professionals. The tool helps triage review; it does not certify compliance.
Will my data train the vendor model?
The terms say your data will not be used for model training without express permission. Capture that in writing if your contract requires zero secondary use.
Marked Up vs manual QC: when is it worth it?
It can cut repetitive visual sweeps on large sets, but you should still spot-check critical sheets and maintain your office QC checklist. Use it where repetitive pattern checks eat the most hours.
