en.Wedoany.com Reported - Beam AI has launched BIM CoPilot, a building information modeling management service for contractors that converts design documents into coordinated 3D models, clash-reviewed documents, and constructible drawing sets. This service is powered by Attentive.ai.

Beam AI currently provides AI-based measurement, estimation, and bid management tools for contractors and suppliers in the United States and Canada. The release of BIM CoPilot expands the company's product offerings from the pre-construction phase to the construction execution phase.

The company offers two workflows: a fully managed workflow covering over 15 trades for measurement and estimation in quality assurance inspections, and a shorter self-service workflow for HVAC and piping measurement. BIM CoPilot adds BIM modeling and coordination support for contractors working with 2D PDF or CAD files.

In commercial building projects, mechanical systems, piping, electrical conduits, structural components, and architectural details need to be coordinated in a digital model to avoid conflicts during installation. BIM CoPilot aims to help contractors identify and resolve these conflicts before on-site installation, providing coordinated models and drawing sets for construction. Contractors submit design documents, and Beam AI's BIM team manages the modeling and coordination process, including data collection, model integration, clash detection, resolution, coordination, and final model delivery.

BIM CoPilot's services include 3D modeling for MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing), architectural, and structural trades, as well as constructability reviews, drawing and bill of quantities generation, Revit family creation, as-built modeling, and post-construction handover support. The service is based on BIM frameworks such as ISO 19650, AIA BIM standards, NBIMS-US v4, and LOD specifications. Contractors do not need to adopt new software platforms or workflows; they only need to submit project documents to receive coordinated outputs.

BIM CoPilot is offered as a standalone, project-based service. Existing Beam AI customers can add it to their pre-construction workflows, while new customers can use it independently. Pricing is determined by project scope, complexity, trade coverage, and coordination requirements. With this addition, Beam AI now covers both pre-construction (measurement, estimation, and bid management) and construction execution (coordinated models, documents, and drawing sets). Beam AI's existing platform supports bid management, automated measurement, and AI-based estimation, and BIM CoPilot extends these services into project execution. For existing customers, workflows can extend from bid tracking to measurement and estimation, and then to BIM modeling, coordination, and construction documentation. Early customers include contractors who expanded their estimation capabilities through Beam AI and later required BIM support for project execution. For more information, visit ibeam.ai.
