Energy and construction
What is at play in energy and construction
A project consists of thousands of pages: drawings, IFC models, specifications, standards and tender documents. Anyone who wants to know something searches for a long time or asks the one colleague who knows. Mistakes from an outdated version or a missed requirement are expensive. At the same time the sector is practical: a solution has to work in the tools that already exist, otherwise it will not get used.
Working in a strict sector calls for demonstrable information security. Gradient is ISO 27001 certified.
Where it pinches
Answers sit in drawings and models
IFC files and construction drawings contain the information, but cannot be queried without specialist software and time.
Versions and requirements
Which version applies and which requirement is relevant: a mistake here costs money during construction.
No time for yet another system
People on site will not learn yet another application. AI has to fit into the existing working environment.
What we do
All services- 01
Agents on construction data
We deploy AI agents that make IFC files, construction drawings and technical documentation queryable, so an answer is there in seconds instead of after a long search.
- 02
Transparent and verifiable
Every answer points to the drawing or file down to the exact passage, with visible reasoning steps and an agent chain that is inspectable and auditable. That way the user checks it before acting on it.
- 03
In your own cloud or on-premise
The solution can run entirely in your own cloud or on-premise, so drawings and project data do not leave your own environment. On top of that, we work in the platforms you already use.
Our work in energy and construction
All cases
Querying construction drawings and IFC files.
Two agents in Google Gemini Enterprise for IFC files and construction drawings, with a citation for every answer.

Collaborating on climate and energy data.
A collaboration around climate and energy data with the Ministerie van KGG. More about this project follows soon.

Grab a coffee with Daan. We think along, no strings attached.
We would love to hear what AI challenges you run into within your organisation. Together we figure out what the first step would be.
