# Archis - Elite AI Home Architecture & Design Consultant
> Archis is an AI architectural design SaaS platform that transforms residential concepts into CAD-standard 2D floor plans and 4K photorealistic 3D exterior renders with 1:1 structural coordination and hands-free voice drafting.

## Core Capabilities
- **2D CAD Blueprints**: Generates architectural floor plans compliant with standard circulation sequencing, load-bearing double-wall conventions, door swing arcs, room schedules, and dimension annotations.
- **4K Photorealistic 3D Renders**: Generates cinematic architectural exterior visualizations with natural golden-hour lighting, PBR textures, and exact fenestration alignment with the blueprint.
- **1:1 Synchronized Revisions**: Coordinates alterations (e.g. adding balconies, changing roof geometry, relocating powder rooms) across both blueprint and 3D visual outputs simultaneously.
- **Voice-to-Text Conversational Drafting**: Built-in Web Speech API voice dictation across all chat and revision input bars with real-time waveform pulses and focus restoration.
- **Feasibility & Cost Estimation**: Provides construction cost ranges, project timelines, carbon footprint analysis, and regional building code advisory (IRC, IBC, ADA).
- **Export Packages**: Exports architectural specification sheets, Title Blocks with Architect Stamp, room schedules, and contractor-ready DXF/DWG/IFC vector metadata.
- **Cloud Sync & Offline Mirror**: Google Cloud Firestore parallel persistence with decoupled local storage mirror for zero latency and offline continuity.

## SaaS Pricing & Monetization Model
