Cases

What we build and explore.

Find information, explore proposals and make sense of your project. Here are tools and ideas for architecture studios, municipalities and foundations.

The first two are prototypes: early versions we have built and can adapt to your task. Our ongoing development and ideas follow.

Find your task

01 · Prototype built

Find information for the project

A question about a building often calls for several sources. We help you find and bring together the relevant information.

What you can get

An overview with relevant information, links to the original texts and questions to investigate. It gives you a starting point for professional assessment.

Read about the tool and how to get started →

What we do

Our search tool uses artificial intelligence (AI) to find and read texts from five Danish publishers. We bring the information together and show where it comes from.

How we work together

You choose the question. We search and review the results with you so the information can be assessed in relation to the building and its use.

Status and next steps

The search tool is built and can be tried with us by arrangement. Using it yourselves requires access and installation.

02 · 3D prototype built

Walk through the proposals

A place is about to change. Let residents and staff experience the differences while the choices are still open.

What you can get

We can develop a model of your place that participants can walk through on screen and use to compare proposals at eye level.

What we do

We have built a park model where people can switch between the existing place and new proposals. A digital host uses AI to answer questions.

How we work together

You choose the proposals and what participants can influence. We build the model and test with you whether the differences and uncertainties are understandable.

Status and next steps

The park model is built. A model of your place requires adaptation and development. Collecting participants’ input and providing feedback on their proposals are possible extensions.

03 · Proposed extension

Make your knowledge easier to use

A foundation or organisation has knowledge in reports and articles. How can it reach the projects where it could make a difference?

The aim for you

A search tool that helps readers find relevant passages and follow links to the originals. For example, information on accessibility for a school project.

What we do

We can build on our search tool and explore how to include your publications.

How we work together

You choose the material and audience. We build a first version and test with users whether they can find and understand the relevant information.

Status and next steps

A proposed extension of the built search prototype. Access to your material and searching it need developing.

04 · Trials in progress

Let AI prepare a first draft

Your project team needs information from several places. Could AI prepare the material so you can focus on assessing it?

The aim for you

A first draft with information, sources and open questions for your professionals to work with.

What we do

We are testing AI programs with separate tasks. They find and gather material and pass it to the next part of the work.

How we work together

We choose one task and agree what the programs may do. You assess the draft; professional choices about spaces, materials and use are made by people.

Status and next steps

The team setup and trials exist. Tasks, handovers and checks need adapting to your work.

05 · In development

Trace a change through the project

A window is replaced with a different type. This can affect how the building works and looks, and require changes to drawings, specifications and orders.

The aim for you

A list of drawings, specifications and orders to review, with links and questions for those responsible.

What we do

We are exploring how documents can be compared and AI can suggest what a change affects.

How we work together

You choose a change and show us the material. Together, we trace its consequences and agree who checks and approves revisions.

Status and next steps

In development. Links between documents and checks on the change list need developing for the specific workflow.

06 · Proposed application

What did we decide, and why?

The reason for a change sits in old meeting notes. Make it easier to find so others can understand the choice and build on it.

The aim for you

An overview of what was decided, why and by whom, with links to the material behind the decision.

What we do

We are exploring how AI could find and summarise decisions in project documents.

How we work together

You choose the material and the people who confirm decisions. We distinguish proposals, open questions and agreed decisions.

Status and next steps

An idea for a tool to develop with a partner.

Start with one specific task.

Tell Thais about your task and the material you have. Together, we choose where to begin and agree the result, price and testing.

We also agree which professional assessments we or your advisers are responsible for. You make the decisions.
