Could you build this?

Partial The UI and editing workflow are vibe-codeable, but producing accurate technical line art from sketches and photos, and meeting formal USPTO drawing rules, needs strong vision models and domain-specific formatting knowledge.

What it would actually take: Combine an image-to-vector pipeline (edge detection, segmentation, SVG generation) with a generative model fine-tuned or prompted for technical line drawings, plus a layout engine for patent sheet formatting (margins, reference numerals, figure labels). The hard parts are output fidelity for technical diagrams and encoding USPTO and other patent office drawing rules. This benefits from a patent-practitioner review loop and ML expertise for the vision pipeline.
