07 · Model Intelligence On the roadmap
Link the model to the plan and to the cost.
The value of a model is in its links. Model Intelligence connects model elements to schedule activities (4D) and to cost (5D), so the team can check the sequence, find conflicts, and track progress in the model itself.
This module is on the roadmap. The capabilities below are what we plan to build, and customer feedback sets the order. Schedule Intelligence is available today.
Built for model-based teams.
Who uses it
Planners, BIM and VDC teams, construction managers, and cost engineers who work from a model.
Typical uses
- Check a sequence visually before it goes to the field.
- Find crews and work scheduled in the same space at the same time.
- Take quantities from the model into the cost.
- Show progress to stakeholders on the model.
Planned capabilities.
On the roadmap Each capability is listed with the decision it is meant to support. Predictions will be estimates, and findings will show patterns in the data rather than proof of cause.
| Capability | What it will do | Decision it supports |
|---|---|---|
| Link | ||
| Model viewer | Opens IFC and other common BIM formats in the browser. | One shared view of the model for the whole team. |
| 4D linking | Links model elements to schedule activities, with AI suggesting matches by name, location, and type. | Whether every element has a place in the plan. |
| Simulate | ||
| 4D simulation | Plays the construction sequence over time. | Whether the sequence is buildable. |
| Time-based clash detection | Finds work scheduled in the same space at the same time. | Which conflicts to resolve before work starts. |
| Measure | ||
| 5D quantities and cost | Takes quantities from the model and links them to cost items. | Whether quantities and budget agree. |
| Model progress | Colors elements by status, and feeds installed quantities back to schedule progress. | What is really installed. |

Questions about this module.
When will it be available?
Model Intelligence is on the roadmap. Customer feedback sets the order of the modules, and we share dates during a demo.
Can we help shape it?
Yes. Early-access customers work with us on the scope and the order of the capabilities, using their own project data.
Which model formats will it support?
IFC first, with other common BIM formats to follow. Tell us what your teams use.
Do we need a 3D model for every project?
No. The other modules work without one. Model Intelligence adds value where a model already exists.

Model Intelligence
Model elements linked to activities (4D) and to cost (5D), with sequence simulation, time-based clashes, and progress in the model. On the roadmap.
