A review & task portal for architecture & construction studios

The line your studio is measured from.

In every studio, the work waits on one person to look at it. Datum clears that first review in minutes instead of days, so the drawings keep moving whether you are at your desk, on site, or with a client.

Every drawing in the studio waits for the same desk.

A-01 / THE BOTTLENECK

The drawings your team produces each week arrive faster than one person can check them. They sit there while you are on site or with a client, and a mistake that could have been caught on Tuesday shows up a week later.

You are not slow. The queue has no order to it. Files arrive across chats and email, get buried, and there is nothing telling you what is waiting or how long it has waited. The review, the one part only you can do, depends entirely on you finding a free hour that rarely comes.

Datum gives that first read a place to live. The moment a drawing is uploaded, a first-pass review is prepared and waiting for you, laid out in plain points you can read in under a minute. You approve it, change it, or set it aside. Nobody on the team is blocked while you get to it.

A-02 / WHAT DATUM DOES
01

Work comes in from their phones

Your architects pick up the week's tasks, run a timer as they work, and upload the finished drawing from wherever they are. Nothing to install, nothing lost in a chat thread.

02

A review is waiting for you

The moment a drawing lands, a first-pass review is prepared and sitting in your private inbox, with the issues already laid out as short, plain points. You read it in under a minute.

03

It goes out as your word

Approve it as is, edit a line, or set it aside for later. What reaches your team is the comment you signed off on, delivered to your phone on Telegram so you can clear it from anywhere.

04

Your week builds itself

Hours by project and person, reviews cleared, turnaround, active jobs. The weekly picture you assemble by hand becomes one screen, ready before the meeting starts.

Four steps, and the queue clears itself.

A-03 / THE FLOW
STEP 01

Assign

The week's tasks land on a simple board, grouped by project and day, from your weekly planning or straight from your backlog.

STEP 02

Upload

The architect logs their time, adds a note, and uploads the finished PDF. The task moves to In Review and the wait shifts off their desk.

STEP 03

You clear it

A prepared review reaches you on Telegram in minutes. Send, edit, or snooze. If something sits too long, Datum nudges you once.

STEP 04

It moves on

Your comment emails the architect and the task advances. Every hour and turnaround feeds the weekly dashboard automatically.

For the principal

You stop being the bottleneck.

  • A private review inbox only your login can see.
  • Every drawing arrives with its first read already prepared.
  • Approve or edit from Telegram, no laptop needed.
  • Reminders and a digest so nothing quietly rots in the queue.
  • The weekly report, hours and charts, in one click.
For the team

They always know what is next.

  • A clean board of the week's work on their phone.
  • A start-stop timer, so hours are logged as they go.
  • Upload a drawing and know it is officially in review.
  • Feedback comes back fast, in the principal's own words.
  • No more chasing, no more drawings lost in a chat thread.

Datum starts with reviews. It does not stop there.

A-04 / WHAT'S COMING

The first release clears your drawing reviews and runs the weekly board. The same portal is built to take on the rest of how a studio runs, released piece by piece as each one is ready. Nothing here is billed today; it is the shape of where Datum is headed.

On the way

Site & construction

Bring engineers and site work onto the same board, from footing to finish, so design and build share one picture.

On the way

Client enquiries

Track new work and follow-ups, so the studio's pipeline sits right beside the work you are delivering.

On the way

Studio analytics

Website traffic, search performance, and delivery pulled into one weekly read, not four separate logins.

On the way

Company mail

Move the studio onto its own addresses, so every comment and drawing stays inside your own system.

Priced below one junior hire. Nothing to buy outright.
