Introducing Oasis Blueprints™

Engineering Drawings. Reimagined.

Create professional drawings with AI. No complicated CAD software. No expensive subscriptions. Just modern, web-powered blueprints.

Built for engineers, designers, builders, and anyone who believes creating drawings should be easier.

Open source. AI-native. Built by Oasis Engineering.

Early release, version 0.2.0. Two job types so far: decks and sunroom-style roofs. Every set is a draft until a licensed engineer closes its open items and seals it.

Live preview

Not just an image. A structured drawing.

A small concept to show the idea: this sheet is drawn in your browser from a few numbers. Change the span or the height, then look at the source. Full sheet sets built with the framework are further down.

It’s time for something different

Why is creating a drawing still so complicated?

For decades, producing technical drawings has meant learning specialized software, managing proprietary file formats, and paying for expensive licenses.

CAD software is incredibly powerful. But not every project needs an entire CAD ecosystem.

Sometimes you just need a clean, accurate, professional drawing. And creating one shouldn’t be harder than the engineering itself.

We think there’s a better way.

A traditional CAD workflow

  1. 1Buy and install the software
  2. 2Learn the interface
  3. 3Draft line by line
  4. 4Manage proprietary files
  5. 5Plot to PDF

With Oasis Blueprints

  1. 1Describe the drawing
  2. 2AI drafts it in HTML and SVG
  3. 3Review and refine
  4. 4Export a print-ready sheet

Another option, not a replacement for CAD.

Meet the framework

What if your next drawing started with a conversation?

Describe what you need. Work with your AI assistant. Generate structured, editable drawings using the same technologies that power modern websites.

No traditional CAD interface required. No proprietary DWG workflow required. Just drawings you can inspect, refine, share, and export.

  1. 01

    Describe

    Tell Claude or ChatGPT what you’re creating. A framing plan, structural detail, foundation section, elevation, or another technical drawing.

  2. 02

    Create

    Your AI assistant uses the Oasis Blueprints skill, templates, and drawing standards to generate an HTML-powered deliverable.

  3. 03

    Review & Deliver

    Review dimensions, notes, details, and engineering requirements. Make changes, then export the drawing into a professional, print-ready format.

We are not removing the engineer from the process. We are giving engineers better tools.

Work with the AI you already use

Your AI assistant. Now with blueprints.

Blueprints for Claude

Bring structured drawing generation into your Claude workflow using the Oasis Blueprints skill.

  1. 1
    Download the skill (zip, version 0.2.0, MIT licence).
  2. 2
    In Claude, open Customize → Skills, press +, choose Create skill, then Upload a skill and pick the zip. Code execution has to be on in your settings.
  3. 3
    Ask for a drawing set and describe the job: what is being built, the dimensions, what is new and what is existing.
Download for Claude

Menus change. Claude’s own guide to adding a skill is the reference. A listing in Claude’s plugin directory has been submitted and is in review.

ChatGPT

Blueprints for ChatGPT

Give ChatGPT the framework, templates, and drawing conventions needed to help produce technical drawings.

  1. 1
    Download the skill. It is the same file: a standard skill folder with a SKILL.md.
  2. 2
    Add it where your ChatGPT app manages skills. Where that is depends on your app and plan.
  3. 3
    Ask for a drawing set and describe the job.
Download for ChatGPT

A step-by-step guide for ChatGPT is on the way.

Oasis Blueprints is an independent open-source project by Oasis Engineering. It is not made, endorsed or sponsored by Anthropic or OpenAI. Claude and ChatGPT are trademarks of their owners.

Real drawings. Modern technology.

This is what AI-native drafting looks like.

Not just an image. An editable, structured drawing.

  • Sunroom repair

    “New rafters, new columns, same sunroom.”

    Existing and new work · imperial · draft with 8 open items for the engineer

    Built with the framework
  • Freestanding deck

    “A 16 × 12 deck on six posts.”

    All new work · inches or millimetres · draft with 8 open items for the engineer

    Built with the framework

Both sets were built with the skill from a described job, with example addresses and a placeholder company. They are drafts on purpose: the red items are what the engineer still has to answer. Open a live set and press Edit to see how those answers go in.

  • True scale, stated

    24 × 36 in sheets. Every measured view states its scale and carries a scale bar, and a layout audit runs before a set is delivered.

  • Colour is meaning

    Blue is new work. Grey is existing. Red is waiting on the engineer. Orange is a hold point.

  • Your title block

    Your company, licence number and logo in the title block, with a blank box for the engineer of record’s seal.

  • Edit in the browser

    Open the HTML, press Edit, type the engineer’s answers, swap the logo, then print or save as PDF.

Built on open technology

Blueprints belong on the web.

HTML, CSS, and SVG are open, widely supported technologies. They’re readable, flexible, version-controllable, and increasingly accessible to AI.

So why not use them for engineering drawings?

  • Open by Design

    Build on established web standards rather than depending entirely on proprietary formats.

  • AI-Friendly

    Structured files that AI assistants can generate, inspect, and modify.

  • Easy to Share

    View drawings using familiar browser technology.

  • Version Controlled

    Track changes and collaborate through Git-based workflows.

  • Print Ready

    Create consistently formatted sheets for PDF export.

  • Extensible

    Develop reusable details, components, templates, and workflows.

A file format does not make a drawing right. The kit states a scale on every measured view and checks the layout; it does not design or check structure. That stays with the engineer.

Built in the open

Good tools should be shared.

Oasis Blueprints is being developed as an open-source project.

We believe modern engineering workflows should be more accessible, transparent, and collaborative.

Explore the source code. Use the templates. Improve the framework. Contribute something useful.

Whether you’re an engineer, developer, architect, or simply curious about the future of technical drawings, you’re welcome to participate.

Designed with responsibility

Better tools. Same engineering standards.

AI can help create drawings. It cannot replace professional judgment.

Oasis Blueprints is a drawing and documentation framework, not an automatic engineering approval system.

Dimensions, structural calculations, material specifications, connections, code requirements, and project-specific conditions must still be reviewed and verified by qualified professionals.

Where required, engineering documents must be prepared under the responsible charge of a properly licensed professional.

The goal isn’t to eliminate engineering expertise. It’s to spend less time fighting software and more time engineering.

Built into the skill: the model is the drafter, not the engineer.

  • It never supplies a member size, anchor, footing or load on its own.
  • Anything you did not give it becomes an open item: red on the sheets and counted in the title block.
  • A set stays a draft until a licensed engineer closes every open item and seals it.

The next generation of blueprints starts here.

No complicated setup. No traditional CAD dependency. Just an open framework and the AI tools you already use.

Let’s build a better way to draw.
