Implementing AEC Technologies: Insights from Industry Leaders
Recap an AEC+Tech talk on technology adoption with Nirva Fereshetian and Bill Carney, covering how firms implement new AEC technologies.
Lagarsoft is an AEC software development company and Autodesk Platform Services Certified Partner building custom Revit plugins, APS integrations, BIM tooling and web platforms for architecture, engineering, construction and proptech firms.
Lagarsoft is an AEC software development company headquartered in Montevideo, Uruguay, building production-grade software for the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, Real Estate, and Property Tech industries.
Founded in 2019 by senior engineers out of CASE Inc. and WeWork, the team brings more than a decade of experience shipping software inside the built environment, combining backgrounds in architecture, real estate, data analysis, automation, software development, and agile management. Lagarsoft operates as a US company that is Uruguay-based and globally distributed, with senior engineers and architects working together across the Americas.
The company's origin gives it a distinctive perspective. Its founders first met at CASE, a global Building Information Modeling consultancy that pioneered the idea that "buildings = data," using technology to reshape how architecture and construction teams worked.
After CASE was acquired by WeWork, the team helped build software to manage WeWork's massive real estate portfolio. When WeWork closed its Uruguay office, the team chose to continue that vision independently, founding Lagarsoft to bring data-driven, agile software solutions to AEC firms worldwide.
Lagarsoft is an Autodesk Platform Services (APS) Certified Partner. The company designs and ships custom Autodesk software on APS, including:
The company builds custom Revit plugins that extend the native toolset, automate repetitive tasks, and bridge Revit to the rest of the technology stack so that the model is not the end of the line. Output flows into web viewers, dashboards, generative design platforms, and field tooling.
That framing - the model is not the end of the line - identifies the gap most BIM implementations leave open. A completed model represents substantial invested effort, and if it terminates at handover rather than feeding downstream systems, most of that value stays locked up.
Beyond the Autodesk ecosystem, the same engineering bench handles broader custom AEC software development, from systems coordination and clash detection tooling to portfolio platforms and investor dashboards.
Engineering rigour is central to Lagarsoft's positioning. The company emphasises production readiness: authentication, secrets handling, dependency hygiene, and audit trails as a baseline, with CI, observability, and a clear rollback path in place before the first deploy.
The team favours reliable, well-understood infrastructure such as databases, queues, and caches that hold up under real production load. This is a meaningful differentiator in a sector where a great deal of custom tooling is built by designers scripting rather than by software engineers, and consequently works on one machine but not across an organisation.
Increasingly, Lagarsoft helps industrial, manufacturing, AEC, and logistics companies take AI-built applications to production, layering senior engineering discipline around modern AI tooling - addressing the now-common situation where a promising prototype cannot be trusted with real data or real users.
Engagements typically begin with a Build Audit: a focused working session with senior engineers followed by a concise one-page memo delivered within forty-eight hours.
From there, work continues as an Embedded Pod - senior engineers operating on a sprint cadence with scoped work and transparent management, adjusted as it unfolds and shaped by what is actually shipping.
The company also offers consulting, where it reads the codebase, reviews the systems, and identifies where existing systems are fragile - mapping current processes and technologies against what production-grade looks like for the size and risk of the business.
By pairing deep domain knowledge of the built environment with senior software engineering, Lagarsoft helps teams across architecture, engineering, construction, MEP, and real estate get more done with software that performs reliably in real-world production conditions.

Explore the tools built by this company.
A free LiDAR room scanner for iPhone and iPad that turns a walkthrough into DXF floorplans, USDZ 3D meshes, and a quantities PDF for architects, contractors, and real estate professionals. Scans run entirely on-device with no account, ads, or paid tier, and exports include wall and floor areas for quick flooring and paint estimates.
HUDA is a bulk user-management tool for Autodesk Construction Cloud, Forma, and BIM 360. It creates members who don't yet exist in your Autodesk hub, adds them to every project they need, and sets their folder permissions in one guided run instead of clicking through the admin project by project. A dry-run preview shows every change before anything is written, and a rollback file lets you undo a whole run. Built by Lagarsoft, a certified Autodesk Platform Services partner, entirely on official APS SDKs and APIs, with no reverse-engineered endpoints.
