Quickstart

Nomic connects your project files and standards so Assistant can answer with citations, run workflows (drawing review, compliance, and more), and keep outputs consistent across your firm.

You will bring data into Nomic, then either chat or run workflows—use the path below that matches how you arrived, then follow the numbered steps.

Choose your path

I was invited to my organization

Accept the email invite and sign in to your firm's Nomic instance. Skip ahead to Connect your data—you do not need to request access separately.

or

My organization is new to Nomic

Book a demo to talk through access and a deployment that fits your team.

or

I am setting up Nomic for my firm

Start with Admin setup and Integrations so project data syncs reliably before you roll Assistant out broadly.

1. Get access to Nomic

1

Sign in or request access

Pick the option that applies:

Join an existing organization

If your firm already uses Nomic, ask your administrator to invite you. You'll receive an email invitation to create your account.

or

Request access for your organization

New to Nomic? Book a demo to request access. We'll help you get set up with a deployment that fits your needs.

Once you have access, log in to your organization's Nomic instance to continue.

2. Connect your data

Typical time: a few minutes with uploads; longer when configuring integrations.

2

Give the Nomic agent context

You can start without integrations: upload files directly. For ongoing sync from Autodesk Forma, SharePoint, Egnyte, or other sources, connect an integration.

Upload files directly

Drag and drop files or images into Assistant for immediate use.

or

Connect integrations

Set up integrations to sync project files automatically.

Administrators configure connections in the Admin → Integrations area.

3. Get your first result

Chat or run a workflow

Chat with Assistant (fastest)

The Nomic agent searches, reads, and reasons over your project data—drawings, manuals, specs, submittals, and similar files—with citations. Prompts that do not point at files you have uploaded or synced tend to yield generic answers that are not grounded in your project data, so start from data you connected in step 2.

Before you prompt: open a project that already contains files, or use Add on the input bar to attach files or images for this session (see Uploads).

Try prompts that reference what you brought in:

  • “Summarize the main coordination notes on the drawing sheets I attached.”
  • “What does this submittal PDF say about [installation requirement or product]?”
  • “Compare these two details—what conflicts or mismatches do you see?”

Turn on Deep Research when you want a slower, broader pass across many files in the project.

Read the Assistant guide for modes, tools, and more examples.

Run a workflow (structured)

Use the Workflows tab for repeatable processes—for example clone Residential Drawing Standards Check, adjust it in the workflow builder, and run it on your drawing set. The full walkthrough is under

Drawing Reviews; generic run instructions are in Run a workflow.
