Gesher · AI for engineering · Australia first

Gesher does the groundwork.
You do the engineering.

Starting with Australian civil, built to become domain-deep AI for every engineering discipline. It works from a curated library of Australian standards, reads your project documents, and drafts cited report sections, each value carrying its source — or a flag for your eye.

For crushed limestone subbase under MRWA Specification 501 — Pavements, the minimum characteristic dry density ratio (R_c):

All subbase except CRB: 94–96% (Table 501A1, cl 1.1, Annexure 501A)1.
Each layer compacted to the R_c in Annexure 501A or greater (cl 501.42)1.
Dry Density Ratio determined per Spec 201 Quality Management, Annexure 201A2.

The system

A domain expert, engine-deep.

A retrieval engine built around a leading AI model. The model does the reading and drafting. The product is the engine around it. Gesher decides when to search, retrieves from a library of Australian standards, reads whole clauses, and cites them. Grounded, rule-bound and auditable. A domain-expert reasoning engine, tuned to Australian practice.

E-01

Route

The model decides whether a question needs the library, and what to search for.

E-02

Retrieve

Hybrid search across the library of Australian standards and your project documents.

E-03

Read

Whole clauses, not fragments. The model reads the source in full.

E-04

Cite

Each value tagged project or standard, and traced to its source — clause and page for a standard, document and page for a project record.

E-05

Gate

Anything the library cannot support becomes [ENGINEER TO CONFIRM] — it shows you exactly what still needs your eye.

E-06

Say so

If the library has nothing, it tells you — and points you toward where to look.

Project-grounded roundabout answer, cited by section — **Reads your project docs** · cites them against the standards that govern them — click to enlarge

Every value is sourced — or flagged. Each number comes from a source document or a referenced standard; anything unsupported is flagged, not invented. Source first, then sentence.

It flags what it cannot support. Unsupported values render as [ENGINEER TO CONFIRM]. Disagreeing sources render as [CONFLICT — RESOLVE]. Both wait for the engineer.

You stay the engineer. An originator-level draft. A registered engineer reviews, edits and signs. Gesher does the groundwork; the design and analysis are yours.

Grounded & growing

Grounded in the standards engineers actually work to.

Gesher reads and cites the real codes, guidelines and authority specifications that govern Australian civil practice — from Main Roads WA to Austroads. It cites the exact clause and links you to the source. It doesn't reproduce or replace the standard; it takes you straight to it.

Conservative by design. Gesher tells you only what it's sure of, and flags the rest for you. You stay the engineer — you review, and you sign.

Every discipline. Australia first, then the world.

Civil is where we start, not where we stop. The plan is domain-deep AI for every field of engineering — structural, geotechnical, electrical, and beyond.

But Gesher never enters a discipline until the engineers who practise it are building it. Expertise comes from people; Gesher carries that expertise — it never replaces it, and we don't get ahead of what we know.

Want this for your field? Help us build it.

If you live in your discipline's standards and want an AI that finally respects them — not one that guesses — we want to talk. Every new field starts with an expert who drives it. That could be you.

Toolbox

Your toolbox — Word, Excel and Outlook.

Gesher works right inside the Microsoft tools you already use, as a task pane — starting in Word, with Excel and Outlook next. You stay in control: it drafts, you review and sign.

Word · live today

Draft a report section from your project record and the standards library — each value cited to its source, anything unfound flagged for you.

Excel · next

Pull and check design values against the governing standard, flagged where they don't line up.

Outlook · next

Draft a reply grounded in the project record and the standards — not guesswork.

Data & security

Your data. Your choice of where it lives.

Gesher runs on Microsoft Azure and signs in with your Microsoft identity. It's offered two ways — pick the balance of cost and control that suits your firm.

Multi-tenant · hosted

Hosted on Gesher's Azure in Australia — isolated per firm. The lighter, more affordable way in.

Single-tenant · your Azure

Deploys into your own Azure tenancy — your documents stay in infrastructure you control. Full sovereignty, the maximum-security option.

Microsoft sign-in

Full audit trail

Every drafted value carries its source — document, page, quote — or a flag where the library can't support it. The export includes the human sign-off, per project.

Secrets & transit

Secrets live in Azure Key Vault, never in source. Traffic runs over TLS.

Cite, don't copy

Gesher cites and links to standards — it never reproduces copyrighted clause text. Licensed content is used only with rights.

Honest about where we are

No certifications — yet. We don't hold or claim IRAP, SOC 2 or ISO 27001. We'd rather walk your security team through the architecture than wave a badge we haven't earned.

Contact

Talk to the people building it.

Gesher is early, working, and in validation with firms now — and what we need most now are real engineers to put it through its paces and tell us, honestly, whether it's actually useful. No pitch, no sales desk: you're talking to the people making it.

Free trial — real engineers wanted
