WHY IT EXISTS

Why This Tool Exists

The Problem

AEC teams manage 100+ GB of design files (CAD, BIM models, point clouds, specifications) scattered across on-premises servers, cloud storage, and project management platforms. Architects, engineers, and contractors struggle with version control, access permissions, document discovery, and compliance across distributed project teams. Large file uploads, downloads, and collaboration are slow and unsecured.

The Solution

Cloud content management platform that replaces legacy file servers with secure, scalable cloud storage optimized for large design files. AI-powered search and governance enable teams to find information instantly. Project Hub automates documentation workflows, ensures consistent project data structure, and integrates directly with Procore, Autodesk, and BlueBeam. Reduces IT costs while improving team productivity and compliance.
