Products

What we’re building.

Focused products, each built to do one job well. Today that’s field documentation and team knowledge — tomorrow, wherever good software is missing.

Field documentation

Live on iOS

Civil Field Photos

Where Denison Systems started: a photo app born from civil engineering field work, built for civil engineers, surveyors, and construction managers. Every shot is stamped with GPS, heading, address, and time — mark up issues on site, keep projects organized, and hand off branded photo reports.

  • Live GPS, heading, address & timestamp overlays
  • Arrows, dimension lines, and on-site markup
  • Projects, tags, search, and map view
  • Branded PDF reports and full-resolution ZIPs

Firm knowledge

In development

Engineering Knowledge Graph

A knowledge platform for engineering firms. EKG turns projects, design details, specs, standards, and lessons learned into one curated graph — with provenance on every fact, ready for AI assistants to query safely.

  • One graph for projects, specs, standards & lessons learned
  • Every answer cites its source
  • Superseded knowledge is flagged, not resurfaced
  • Connects to AI assistants via MCP

Research

Measuring AI on real software.

Alongside the products, we study how well AI agents operate the professional tools people already use — where they succeed, where they fail, and how to train them to do better. Every result is scored from the work an agent leaves behind.

AI agents · CAD

Research in progress

RoadDraft

Can AI agents actually operate professional drafting software? RoadDraft is a headless 2D CAD engine with every drafting tool exposed over MCP, paired with a benchmark of real roadway plan-sheet tasks — scored from the drawing an agent leaves behind, not from what it says it did.

  • CAD engine with model space, sheets, references & a design model
  • Every command available to agents as an MCP tool
  • Pass/fail probes, from finding entities to lettering curve data

Approach

Built the way good tools are built.

01

Domain first

Every product starts inside a real workflow — field inspection, document review, institutional knowledge — not as generic software in search of a use case.

02

AI that earns its place

AI handles the busywork and the retrieval, always with provenance. Answers cite their sources, and out-of-date knowledge stays flagged.

03

Small and direct

An independent studio means short feedback loops: you talk to the people who build the product, and requests turn into releases quickly.
