tl;dr

Bild AI reads construction blueprints and extracts material and cost data for builders. Our software automates the $50B/year spent on manual blueprint processing. Watch our demo here.

The Problem

Working with construction blueprints to get material and cost estimates is a manual process, involving drawing on blueprints by hand. This is time-consuming and prone to human error, which can lead to tens of thousands of dollars in losses per project. It bottlenecks builders and suppliers from winning new contracts as they’re bogged down with the tedious process of bidding. There are massive manual estimation and bidding teams in-house and outsourced.

Our Solution

We're bringing construction blueprints into the present with artificial intelligence. Bild AI ingests blueprint files and applies computer vision models and large language models to calculate detailed material quantity and cost estimates for flooring, doors, hardware and more. Our first clients are using Bild AI to bid on 10x more projects, with confidence in the accuracy of the estimates. This is just one application of blueprint processing that our clients use today, but our vision extends to permitting and architecture checks.

We are [Housing|Software] Developers

Puneet Sukhija built his first house at 16 and has since overseen hundreds of construction projects, experiencing firsthand the frustration of working with complex blueprints. Roop Pal started at Google at 19 before moving to Waymo, where he built computer vision models to interpret complex traffic signal patterns for self-driving cars. They are exited founders applying their experience to automate blueprint analysis—helping builders focus on what matters: building.
