Semble AI, a YC-backed startup founded by Stanford CS graduates, is building AI agents that autonomously design building systems including fire protection, HVAC, plumbing, and security. The platform transforms 300-hour engineering projects into 3-hour automated workflows while ensuring full code compliance and AHJ approval-ready documentation. The $600B building-system integration industry still relies on spreadsheets and manual drawings despite rapidly evolving building codes, making this one of construction's largest digital blind spots. Founded by someone who lost their home in a 2017 wildfire, the company exemplifies how AI agents are moving beyond software into physical-world industries with complex regulatory requirements.
