Value proposition
Automates 300-hour manual building-system engineering projects into 3-hour AI-powered workflows, generating code-compliant device layouts, BOMs, cost estimates, and proposals instantly
Products and solutions
AI agents for building-system design (fire suppression, HVAC, plumbing, security), AI workflow automation for construction back-office, AI operating system for trades operators
Unique value
Custom AI agents trained on how each construction business actually runs, plugged into existing tools (Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Teams, Drive, project management tools), turning manual workflows into code-compliant automated processes

Construction companies, building system integrators, contractors, manufacturers, and logistics firms
Industries served
Construction, Building Systems Integration, Fire & Life Safety, MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing), Commercial & Residential Real Estate Development
Technology advantage
AI agents that understand complex, localized building codes and generate fully code-compliant designs; replaces manual spreadsheets and CAD workflows; end-to-end automation from design to BOM to quote
How they differentiate
Deep domain expertise in fire/life-safety systems (CEO worked at Convergint, one of the world's largest building system integrators); personal founder motivation (CTO's house burned down in 2017 wildfire); targets a $600B building-system integration market largely untouched by AI/automation; YC F25 batch company
Main competitors
Autodesk, XTEN-AV, FireAlarm.com, Nonlinear (low-code automation for AEC)
