Trimble Adds AI Tools to Construction Platform
New capabilities for its Trimble Connect software were unveiled at the company's Dimensions conference in Las Vegas.
Updated on Nov. 10, 2026 in Artificial Intelligence
Trimble announced new AI capabilities for its construction software platform at its Dimensions conference in Las Vegas. The additions expand its Trimble Connect platform with conversational and customizable AI tools.
Why it matters
The tools aim to help construction teams manage projects more efficiently by flagging problems earlier and automating routine analysis. For the Las Vegas area, where the conference was held, the announcement highlights the growing role of software in the region's construction sector.
The announcement cites a 15% improvement in machine control uptime for the MP1087 system in challenging environments, a figure the company has not yet tied to a published baseline. Pricing and independent verification of the performance claim remain unaddressed.
The players
Trimble
Trimble is a technology company best known for positioning, geospatial, and construction software products used across the global building industry.
The details
Trimble Assist, a conversational AI interface, and Trimble Agent Studio, which lets customers build custom AI agents, were introduced for the Trimble Connect platform. Trimble Connect Scheduling uses AI to identify potential project delays and suggests schedule adjustments for teams to review and approve; it is available in North America.
Timeline
The announcement was made at the Dimensions conference in Las Vegas.
The MP1087 machine positioning solution is expected to become available worldwide through Trimble dealers in late 2026.
The Tech Race
Trimble's expansion of Trimble Connect with AI agents and scheduling tools places it alongside other construction software vendors racing to automate project management. The move builds on the platform's existing role as a central hub for construction data and collaboration.
Construction project managers in North America can use Trimble Connect Scheduling to catch likely delays earlier and review suggested schedule changes before approving them. Teams that build custom workflows may use Trimble Agent Studio to automate contract and change-order analysis.
The takeaway
Software that flags schedule risk before it becomes a cost overrun can shift how construction teams spend their time. Reviewing AI suggestions rather than building schedules from scratch is the practical change to watch.
What happens next
Trimble's MP1087 machine positioning solution is expected to reach dealers worldwide in late 2026.
