Reviewing Parsed Rooms and Plan Readiness

What the parser does

Room parsing is included on Professional and above. When a plan is uploaded with room parsing enabled, Rivolq reads the retained PDF source and detects room shapes, labels, and wall geometry using page geometry and a local text-recognition pass; nothing about your drawings is sent to a model. Detected rooms are evidence to review, not a map to trust. Scanned sheets, raster-only exports, and messy drawings produce misses and low-confidence shapes, which is why review exists.

Parse states

The banner above the plan shows Parsing queued and Building structured rooms while it runs; Review room candidates when shapes are ready; Reconcile rooms before pinning when candidates are unreviewed; Align existing rooms before pinning when tree rooms are missing; Auto-detect failed, with Retry parse, when the parser errored; Plan needs manual rooms when the drawing cannot be parsed; and Rooms reconciled when every candidate is aligned.

The plan-readiness panel

The heading reads Structure aligned when the plan is ready and Reconciliation needed when it is not. Four counts sit underneath.

• Linked is shapes matched to an existing location or turned into a new one.
• Needs review is shapes still pending a decision. Anything above zero is why the plan is not ready.
• Not on plan counts tree rooms not found on this drawing. A room genuinely absent from the sheet sits here permanently, and that is fine.
• Dismissed is shapes you rejected or ignored.

The six decisions

Select a shape and choose one. Link when the detected room is already in your tree. Create location when the plan found a real room your hierarchy is missing. Rename when the label is close but wrong; parsed labels come from text on the drawing and are often stale. Ignore when the shape is harmless but should not become a location, such as a corridor. Reject when the shape is not a real room, such as a title block. Delete when the shape should leave the review entirely. Deleting a shape does not move pins or assets.

The Suggestions panel lists parsed rooms alongside ranked candidate locations; clicking a candidate confirms the mapping. A shape whose label could not be read shows as Unlabeled room; the geometry is usually still good, so link it or name and create it.

Drawing rooms by hand

Where auto-detection misses or fails, use Draw rooms: draw the polygon, label it, and link it to a location. Manual rooms are worth as much as detected ones once linked. Once no candidates are pending, pin assets against the plan: see Placing and managing asset pins.
