AI71 launches SuperHive, the AI-powered construction lifecycle platform
Abu Dhabi – AI71 today announced the launch of SuperHive, a groundbreaking end-to-end platform designed to optimize every stage of the construction lifecycle — from design and permitting to execution and operation. With embedded AI, real-time intelligence, and advanced automation, SuperHive enables stakeholders across the ecosystem to accelerate project delivery, reduce risk, and enhance long-term asset performance. ' Construction underpins economic growth, yet it has seen limited disruption from modern technologies. With SuperHive, we're embedding intelligence across the entire infrastructure lifecycle — transforming how nations build and operate ' said H.E. Faisal Al Bannai, Chairman of AI71. ' This is not just about digital transformation — it's about rethinking how we approach scale, speed, and resilience in infrastructure delivery.' Key Modules and Capabilities: Augmented design and planning: Validates CAD/BIM files against building codes with 99% accuracy, delivering permit-ready approvals in minutes. Also includes GenAI-powered 2D to 3D conversion, automating weeks of manual work. Advanced construction monitoring: Predictive scheduling and risk detection using satellite data, IoT sensors, and Primavera integration. Digital Twins: Enables city-wide smart asset management with real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and livability scoring. Asset management: Offers real-time quantity takeoff and cost estimation across project phases, improving budgeting accuracy. AI enabled monitoring: Provides drone and CV-powered site monitoring, tracking equipment use, compliance, and progress at a glance. Tackling the Compliance Bottleneck One of SuperHive's most transformative features is its AI-powered compliance automation. Currently, compliance validation for construction permits remains a manual, error-prone, and time-consuming process — especially in rapidly growing urban regions. SuperHive's AiComply Studio reduces human dependency, minimizes costly errors, and empowers both consultants and municipal authorities to accelerate the approval process through AI-assisted regulation mapping and validation. ' By digitizing and automating compliance, municipalities save cost, consultants gain speed, and developers reduce risk ' said Klemensas Mecejus, VP Advisory at AI71. ' It's a win across the board ' he added. A Mission to Digitize Infrastructure at Scale SuperHive supports a vision where infrastructure projects can go from idea to asset with intelligence at every stage. Whether for public housing, urban development, or smart cities, SuperHive offers a robust, integrated ecosystem — ready to be deployed at national scale. ' With this intelligence we boost productivity across the entire construction lifecycle — enabling up to 50% faster decision-making, reducing manual documentation by 70%, and cutting on-site rework by half. With full AI coverage across all sub-stages, it transforms how teams plan, build, and deliver at scale ' concludes Chiara Marcati, Chief AI Advisory and Business Officer at AI71. About71 AI71 is a next-generation AI company developing cutting-edge products to solve high-stakes, real-world challenges across sectors.
