Why This Tool Exists

⚠️

The Problem

BIM modelers spend 25-50% of their time manually identifying and tracing objects in point cloud data from building scans, leading to slow project delivery and increased modeling costs. Complex objects like MEP systems are particularly time-consuming to model accurately.

The Solution

Neural network automatically detects and classifies structural elements, MEP systems, architectural features, and furniture in point clouds, then groups object points for direct Revit modeling. Reduces modeling time by 25-50% with AI-powered object recognition.
