ALICE

AI-powered construction scheduling and scenario optimization

World's first AI-powered generative construction scheduling platform that simulates millions of scenarios to identify the most efficient construction sequence, reducing project duration, labor costs, and equipment costs while managing complex constraints.

WHY IT EXISTS

Why This Tool Exists

The Problem

Construction teams manually create schedules that rarely optimize for efficiency, leading to extended timelines, suboptimal resource allocation, and significant cost overruns. Complex projects with thousands of tasks and dependencies overwhelm traditional scheduling tools. A typical $500M project loses $30M+ due to schedule inefficiency and inability to explore alternatives.

The Solution

Generates optimized construction schedules using proprietary AI that rapidly simulates millions of possible scenarios. Automatically identifies the most efficient task sequences, resource allocations, and strategies to meet objectives like minimizing duration, costs, or material waste. Enables scenario analysis to explore recovery strategies and assess impact of delays.
