AEC Hub

About AEC Hub

AEC Hub helps architecture, engineering, and construction firms adopt AI. There are nearly 500 AI tools built for this industry now, and more arrive every month. The hard part is not finding them. It is knowing which ones fit the work your firm actually does, what it takes to put them into practice, and how they connect to the software your team already uses every day. We help firms work through that.

Free AI Assessment Tools

We start with free tools that answer the questions firms bring us.

• AI Workflow Audit - takes one workflow (construction document production, proposals, submittal review, field reports) and maps its steps and hours. It returns what that workflow costs your firm annually and shows where AI, automation, or a straightforward process change would help. It separates those three deliberately, because plenty of workflow problems turn out not to be AI problems at all, and knowing the difference saves a firm both money and disappointment.
• AI Readiness Score - assesses where a firm stands across data, process, people, and technology, then points to tools matched to the specific pain points that come up.
• Proposal Generator - turns an RFP into a structured outline with a compliance checklist built from the solicitation's own stated requirements.
• RFI Cost Calculator - quantifies what unresolved RFIs cost on a project, which is often the number that makes the case for change internally.

Research and Buyer Resources

Alongside the tools, we publish resources to help teams learn.

• AI tool catalogue - covers nearly 500 AI tools for architecture, engineering, and construction, organized by category, project phase, project scale, and use case. Each entry describes what a tool does well and where it stops, so teams can evaluate fit rather than read marketing copy.
• Buyer's guides - compare options within a category for a specific job.
• Curated stacks - show what a coherent toolset looks like for a particular kind of practice.
• Benchmark tracker - follows independent evaluations of AI performance on AEC tasks and labels every result by status.
• Glossary - gives teams shared vocabulary for terminology that is still settling.
• AEC Intelligence Briefing - covers funding, acquisitions, and product releases each month, so technology leads can keep up without watching the whole market themselves.

Advisory and Implementation

When firms want help doing the work rather than researching it, we partner with them directly. A free AI strategy workshop establishes where to start, based on the firm's own situation rather than a generic maturity model. Implementation sprints follow, putting specific capabilities into specific workflows with the team that will use them. The goal is a firm working differently at the end, not a report recommending that it should.

AEC Hub Platform

We also build our own product. AEC Hub Platform connects a firm's Microsoft 365 and Autodesk Construction Cloud and reads across both. It finds what clients asked for in project email and checks it against what is actually in the model, so a commitment about door clearances arrives alongside the doors that fail the clearance check. Every finding cites the messages and model data behind it. The platform is in private pilot, configured per firm.

Who We Work With

AEC Hub is based in Atlanta and works with architecture, engineering, and construction firms.
