Search the International Fire Code with AI. Ask IFC code questions using natural language, keywords, or section numbers and get cited answers with exact code text in the built-in References panel.
The International Fire Code (IFC) is a model fire prevention code published by the International Code Council (ICC). ICC is the organization — the IFC is one of the actual codes it publishes. The IFC covers fire department access, hazardous materials, fire protection systems, and fire safety requirements for both new and existing buildings. FireCodes AI makes it easy to search the IFC using natural language questions.
Instead of manually searching through IFC chapters, you can ask questions like “What does the IFC require for fire department access roads?” or “IFC hazardous materials storage requirements” and get a cited answer that references specific sections.
Every answer includes citations to specific IFC sections. The built-in References panel shows the exact, verbatim text of those sections — not rewritten or summarized by AI. This lets fire protection professionals verify every answer against the original code language.
The IFC works alongside the IBC (International Building Code) — both are published by ICC. FireCodes AI supports both codes, and the Multi Book feature lets you search across the IFC and IBC simultaneously to cross-reference requirements.
