A clear process for
specification accuracy
KitchenAI360 walks you through a structured review of your kitchen layout against published industry standards. Here is what happens at each stage.
Describe your kitchen project
Start by entering the core parameters of your project: room dimensions, proposed layout type (galley, L-shape, U-shape, island, and so on), appliance selections, and any known constraints such as window or door positions. The platform captures what it needs to perform a meaningful review.
Details
- Supported layout configurations: galley, one-wall, L-shape, U-shape, peninsula, island
- Appliance categories: refrigerator, range or cooktop, dishwasher, microwave, oven
- Optional: entry clearances, window positions, cabinet layout intent
Receive AI-assisted specification feedback
KitchenAI360 checks your submitted parameters against published clearance guidelines and flags potential issues for your review. The platform surfaces the relevant standard or guideline alongside each flagged item so you can understand the basis for the feedback — not just the outcome.
Details
- Clearance checks based on NKBA Kitchen Planning Guidelines
- Workflow zone analysis for primary work triangle or zone configurations
- Appliance spacing review against published residential minimums
- Each flag references the guideline it is based on
Review and refine your plan
Use the feedback to adjust dimensions, reposition appliances, or reconsider layout choices. You can re-submit a revised plan as many times as needed. The tool is designed to support iteration — not replace the judgement of the designer or contractor reviewing the final plan.
Details
- Re-submit revised parameters to check updates
- Compare specification notes across iterations
- All guidance should be reviewed by a qualified professional before construction
Export a specification summary
When your plan is ready for handoff, export a specification summary that captures the key dimensions, appliance selections, and notes from your review. This document is intended to support client communication, contractor briefings, and project record-keeping — not as a certified compliance document.
Details
- Summary includes: layout type, key dimensions, appliance list, flagged items
- Suitable for client review and contractor reference
- Not a permit document or compliance certificate
When to use it
KitchenAI360 fits most naturally at specific points in the kitchen planning process.
The planning stage
KitchenAI360 is most useful during early planning — when layouts are still flexible and catching an issue costs a conversation rather than a construction change.
Iterative design
The tool supports multiple submissions. Designers and contractors can test alternative configurations quickly without manually cross-referencing standard documents.
Client communication
Homeowners can use the specification summary to have more informed conversations with their design and build teams — reducing the gap between what was intended and what gets built.
Pre-handoff review
Before a design moves to the build phase, a quick review can surface specification details that might otherwise require a revision mid-construction.
A note on scope
KitchenAI360 is an AI-assisted planning aid, not a licensed design service or code compliance tool. All output should be reviewed by a qualified professional — designer, contractor, or building official — before construction begins. The platform does not account for local code variations, site-specific conditions, or structural constraints.
