Do you feel that using AI tools at work makes your professional tasks easier to complete?

Nemetschek Group has released its new AI-driven software suite, including Archicad Max, Allplan Max, and Bluebeam Max. These tools are built on the Nemetschek Intelligence Platform to help professionals manage project complexity and automation.

Why it matters

These tools aim to alleviate industry-wide pressures by reducing repetitive tasks and addressing staff shortages. They allow firms to handle complex project demands and tight schedules through AI-assisted workflows.

The suite integrates with open standards like IFC and uses the Model Context Protocol to support third-party AI tools such as Anthropic Claude. Early testing among 2,000 adopters showed that the technology enables faster task completion by automating manual workflows.
