Nemetschek Group Elevates AI Competences in Design Segment with Unified Data-Intelligence Platform

Munich, May 13, 2026 – The Nemetschek Group, a leading global provider of vertical software and AI solutions for the AEC/O and media industries, today announced a key milestone in strengthening and scaling its AI offering in the Design segment. The preview of Graphisoft’s new collaboration and AI-assisted design initiatives, currently being developed connects early-stage decision making, open collaboration and design experience. 

The Nemetschek Group is unifying key components of its Design Intelligence Strategy into a unified, cloud-native platform that extends from feasibility studies to detailed BIM and lifecycle collaboration. The goal is to deliver an intuitive, data-driven design experience and support informed decision-making and better-performing buildings.   

“The new collaboration and AI-assisted design initiatives represent a key milestone in delivering greater value to our customers through advanced AI-driven capabilities in the Design segment,” said Sunil Pandita, Chief Division Officer Planning & Design at the Nemetschek Group. “Designed with scalability for the Nemetschek design solutions in mind, this next-generation platform is translating AI into practical value for architects, engineers, and planners.”

To help eliminate roadblocks and cost overruns caused by broken handovers, misalignment, and miscommunication across AEC projects, the Nemetschek Group-level initiative is being developed as an open collaboration fabric for the Nemetschek design ecosystem. It is intended to synchronize models, documents, issues, and decisions the broader Nemetschek portfolio, while supporting open standards. This solution will offer a browser-based, multidisciplinary collaboration environment that brings architects, engineers, builders, owners, and operators into a single source of truth, with early access planned for 2026.

Also in development is a next-generation, web-based design intelligence platform that uses AI and integrated simulations to help teams make better decisions earlier in the building lifecycle. Users will be able to explore hundreds of massing, layout, and performance scenarios in seconds, while keeping stakeholders aligned in a shared, browser-based workspace - without requiring BIM expertise. This solution plans to launch early access in October, with a waitlist available now.

The preview of both initiatives is part of the groupwide design intelligence strategy offering AI-powered technologies that help customers transform data into insights and more informed decisions in real time. Starting with Graphisoft, they will be successively rolled out across additional Design brands in the Nemetschek Group over time, reinforcing the Group’s ambition to scale AI-powered innovation across its portfolio.
