AI for Architecture

Can AI Answer Questions About Architecture Services?

AI can answer common questions about architecture services: what the design process involves, how fees are typically structured, how long a project takes, what the firm's project types are, and how to get started. Questions requiring design expertise or project-specific judgment go to the architect.

Prospective architecture clients research before they call. They want to know: How do you charge? What's the process? How long does it take? What types of projects do you work on? Can I see examples of similar work? These are answerable questions with clear, informative responses — and they're the questions that often go to voicemail or get answered inconsistently because no one is available.

AI trained on your firm's FAQ content answers these questions accurately and immediately. A prospective client calling at 7pm about your residential renovation process gets a complete, accurate answer — not voicemail. The AI can describe the design phases, give a typical timeline range, explain the fee structure without quoting specific numbers (those come from the architect after understanding the project), and send a link to relevant portfolio work.

Questions the AI doesn't answer and routes to the architect: project-specific feasibility questions ('Can I add a third storey to my house?'), specific fee quotes before a project is defined, questions about building code or permit requirements for specific projects, and any question where the prospective client is looking for professional advice. These require the architect's expertise and judgment.

Common questions

Yes. Polemica supports bilingual operation. For architecture firms in bilingual markets (parts of Montreal, Ottawa, New Brunswick), configuring both English and French response capability ensures no prospective client is lost due to language.
