Evidence-bound answers
Answers are generated from retrieved clause and table segments, with citations you can open in the PDF. Always verify on site—this is a research aid, not a certificate of compliance.
How it works
Install once. Search your own library.
Clause-level research on your Windows PC—not a generic chatbot, and not a cloud upload portal.
Multi-signal retrieval
Questions run through keyword, semantic, and clause-ID search over the documents you added, plus associated-clause expansion for definitions, exceptions, and cross-references.
Your PDFs, on your PC
Build a searchable PDF library from the licensed publications you already use—including construction codes, network rules, metering manuals, and technical specifications. Copy, print/PDF, and JPG export when you need to share or file research.
Have questions about searching engineering standards, organising technical PDFs or using AI for building services research? Explore our engineering document search FAQs.
Our mission
It all begins with a challenge.
We build AI-powered tools that turn complex work into clear, confident decisions.
Why we exist
From overload to clarity.
Maybe you're buried under repetitive tasks. Maybe your team spends hours finding the right clause. Or maybe you're simply ready to work smarter.
Augusta Search is built for that hunt: install the app, add the documents you are licensed to use, and get cited answers you can check against the official page—because the right tools don't just save time, they change how you deliver results.

One desktop app. Your documents.
