Why bimai
The problem bimai solves for BIM teams, and what it does and doesn't do.
The problem
BIM professionals spend a large part of their week on work around the model rather than in it: preparing coordination meetings, chasing open issues, writing minutes, checking deliveries against the BEP, keeping requirements and risks up to date, and explaining to new colleagues how the project works.
AI tools can now read Revit models and ACC issues. But a chatbot with access to your model doesn't know what a coordination round is, what your BEP says, or who on the project is responsible for what. Without that, it produces answers nobody can check and actions nobody asked for.
What bimai does
bimai adds the missing part: a BIM team with a process.
| Without bimai | With bimai |
|---|---|
| Every tool is its own island | One place that works across ACC, Revit, Civil 3D, OpenRoads, IFC and Microsoft 365 |
| AI answers you can't trace | Every statement cites the model, issue or document it came from |
| Agents that act on their own | Agents that read by default and ask before any change |
| Knowledge leaves with the person | Decisions, agreements and learnings stay with the project and the job |
| New colleagues need weeks | A project site explains the people, teams, agreements and current work |
What bimai doesn't do
- It doesn't replace BIM professionals. It takes repetitive coordination and documentation work off their hands. People stay accountable for decisions and approvals.
- It doesn't change models on its own. Every write to a model, ACC or a shared rule is shown to a person first, and nothing happens until they approve.
- It doesn't lock you in. It's open source, it runs on your own machines and accounts, and its files are plain text in your own project repositories.
