OUR ALLPLAN APPROACH

AI & INNOVATION

Ethically and transparently optimising your new design to build workflows.

Our customer commitment

ALLPLAN is continuously investing in advanced technologies and AI to help you deliver more.

We can trace our origins back over almost five decades of pioneering digitalization from helping our clients to move from paper and drawing boards to CAD and BIM, to entire design to build workflows. By integrating a wide variety of functions and assistants based on artificial intelligence into our products, we will offer our customers a new level of efficiency and excitement. New innovative workflows help to deliver projects more productively, safely and sustainably. We will do this ensuring that our advanced technology and AI innovations are ethical, transparent and dependable.

"As a part of the Nemetschek Group we are embracing AI and sustainability, ethically and transparently, enabling the latest technologies and supporting optimized design to build workflows for our customers.” Dr. Detlef Schneider, CEO of ALLPLAN

Artificial Intelligence. AEC Innovation.

ALLPLAN takes a strategic approach to our AI innovation and subsequent implementation to ensure that we support our wide user base across the design to build process.

The Nemetschek AI-Visualizer will connect and streamline collaboration workflows for the creation of inspiring and detailed architectural designs and visualizations.

Our collaboration with Evolvelab, will further enable new workflows to generate high quality exterior and interior perspective images and architectural design proposals

Together with scanning solutions and ai-tools such as BIMETO we will deliver AI-based workflows for as-built modeling for advanced digital building reconstruction.

Symbolic AI design optimization is enabled through our parametric XD model for bridge modeling, structural analysis, detailing and delivery.

With Python API integration and PythonParts symbolic AI is further supported for optimal templating and significant productivity efficiencies.

Allplan has integrated Visual Scripting providing the means to define how a smart component should behave under certain conditions and even fully automate workflows.

Using the AutoConverter easily translate any 3D BIM model into a structural analytical model ready for analysis.

AI-based construction site monitoring and risk management applications, such as Imerso, that can be linked to Allplan or integrated via Bimplus are already in use.

The Overlay Manager brings drawings and models together, enhanced workflows are being developed to facilitate workflows with 2D documentation from Allplan using Bluebeam technology.

Solutions, such as Preoptima, for design optimization with regards to the life cycle assessment of construction projects are already in an early testing phase for building construction.

Our technology partnership with elevait, will make it easier for the construction and real-estate industry to create maximum value from company data.

BIMPLUS: Maximise the value of your BIM models by managing it in a real BIM-database. Create new content in the cloud, e.g. IFC, BCF, analytical visualizations, quantities, measurements, room books and VR.

ALLPLAN Chatbot

Would you like to learn how to use our products with ease and have someone on your side to help you become faster and ever more proficient each day? Our Chatbot will be there for you. Any time of the day, anywhere, understanding your mother tongue and your questions.

ALLPLAN and AI Research

Here at ALLPLAN we believe that research is vital to understanding how the future of digitization will look like and delivering products using the latest knowledge and technology. The Nemetschek Group funded the TUM Georg Nemetschek Institute Artificial Intelligence for the Built World in 2020.

The Georg Nemetschek Institute will serve as an interface between research, teaching and innovation for the application of AI in the entire life cycle of buildings and infrastructure.

Allplan is working together with renowned partners from research and industry to develop the foundations for cloud-based solutions for automated inventory modeling using AI: BIMKIT

Predictive Design: Together with our partners from Vectorworks and Graphisoft we fund a research project at TU Munich that builds the knowledge base for an AEC Copilot.

As part of the research project "HyBridGen - AI-based bridge design generator with a knowledge and experience base" in the mFUND funding line, we are working with a large consortium to create the knowledge base for the automated modelling of bridges with AI.

"The ecologically and economically sustainable design and maintenance of a built environment worth living in for all people is one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century. The use of artificial intelligence and machine learning offers us completely new ways to meet this challenge”.

- Prof. Dr.-Ing. André Borrmann, Professor at the Chair for Computational Modeling and Simulation, Technical University of Munich (TUM)
