Augmenta – The AI That Turns Weeks of Electrical Modeling into Hours

Описание: If you’re still routing conduit by hand and chasing clashes in Revit manually, you’ll want to see this.

Augmenta says it handles that work for you – and gives you a fully coordinated electrical design in hours instead of weeks.

This is our first live demo of 2026, so I am honestly excited to see it live in action.

So, if you are:
Trying to hit tight schedules with slow manual workflows
Spending days modeling raceways and home runs in Revit
Fixing the same clashes again and again during coordination

You might want to join me for this live demo and see what Augmenta can do.

Here’s what they claim to do for you:
Cut design and modeling time for VDC and BIM teams
Let you explore different design options with cost and time in mind
Export results straight into Revit as native conduit so you can still edit and detail
Create fully coordinated, clash-free electrical raceway designs in a fraction of the usual time

Augmenta is built for electrical engineers, VDC managers, and electrical contractors who need clean, code-aware designs – without burning weeks on modeling.

In this session, Aaron Szymanski, co-founder of Augmenta, demonstrates how their AI driven design system can reduce the time required for electrical modeling and coordination from weeks to mere hours. The platform focuses on creating constructible, clash-free designs specifically for electrical conduit and raceways directly within a Revit environment.

Key Takeaways
• Massive Time Savings: Current users experience a 60–65% reduction in modeling time, with a target of 75% by the end of the year.
• Contractor-Focused Output: Unlike tools designed solely for engineering intent, Augmenta produces designs that a foreman can sign off on and build.
• Single-Shot Coordination: The system performs spatial analysis in the cloud to generate optimal pathways, grouping conduits to minimize support costs and bends.
• Seamless Revit Integration: A dedicated plugin manages data between Revit and the Augmenta Construction Platform (ACP), allowing for easy QA/QC and part conversion.
