Unleash Intelligent STAFFING

McKim.AI exists to help fill your firm’s immediate staffing needs without the need for a permanent hire.

McKim.AI

Architectural Intelligence for Project Delivery

Experienced architectural judgment. Modern tools. Independent execution.

McKim.AI is the technology-enabled consulting platform of Jonathan J. McKim, Architect, providing fractional senior architectural and project-delivery services to architecture and design firms, developers, owners, and contractors.

The premise is simple:

Technology should make an experienced architect more effective—not replace architectural judgment.

McKim.AI combines 17 years of independent architectural practice with contemporary digital and AI-assisted workflows to help project teams research, coordinate, review, document, and resolve architectural issues efficiently.

Senior Experience Without Permanent Overhead

Architecture firms frequently encounter temporary mismatches between workload and staffing.

A major deadline approaches. A project requires additional senior oversight. A project manager leaves midway through an assignment. Plan-check comments arrive while the team is already committed elsewhere. Construction begins generating RFIs. A document set needs an independent technical review.

Hiring another permanent employee is not always the right solution.

McKim.AI provides another option:

Fractional senior architectural capacity.

Engagements can be structured around specific deliverables, project phases, recurring weekly support, or temporary project leadership.

AI-Assisted. Architect-Led.

Artificial intelligence can accelerate research, information organization, document analysis, workflow development, and other aspects of architectural practice.

But architecture remains a professional service requiring judgment, accountability, experience, and an understanding of buildings and construction.

Accordingly, McKim.AI uses AI as a tool within an architect-led professional workflow.

The technology assists. The architect decides.
