Mechanical, electrical and plumbing consultancies: manufacturers spend fortunes trying to influence a decision you make in a spreadsheet.
Systems that work in the real world - under part load, bad commissioning and an operator who was never trained - are designed by engineers who have been back to the building. That knowledge is nowhere in a datasheet.
Judgment on margins, control strategy and product reliability: what survives real operation, and which manufacturer you would not specify again.
Load calculations, cable sizing, selection comparisons, clash checks, schedule production, commissioning paperwork, regulation checks.
Your design standards become the system’s defaults: the software calculates and documents, your engineers decide and seal.
Not a chatbot in your inbox. Whole workflows in production - across every person and system they touch - on one layer that the next workflow reuses.
Heating, cooling and ventilation loads calculated from the model and re-run whenever the architecture moves, instead of a spreadsheet rebuilt at every design stage.
Load schedules and cable sizing produced and kept consistent with the distribution diagram - days of checking per project, most of it arithmetic.
Candidate equipment compared against real performance data at your operating points, rather than whichever selection software the rep left behind.
Routing proposed and clashes resolved inside the coordination model, so the weekly clash meeting deals with decisions rather than discoveries.
Technical specifications and equipment schedules generated from the design data, consistent by construction instead of by proofreading.
Commissioning sheets and witness records produced from the specification and completed on site - not assembled retrospectively at handover.
Designs checked against national technical regulations as they develop, so compliance is continuous rather than a submission-week scramble.
A sizing and selection tool given free to the engineers and installers in your market, monetised on the manufacturer side: placement, verified performance data, and the intelligence of what is being specified where. The engineers get a better tool than the ones the reps supply. The structured specification data is the asset.
Adoption is the whole game. A neutral selection tool that is genuinely better than manufacturer software spreads through a market on its own.
They already spend heavily to influence specification, largely blind. Placement and verified performance data in the tool where the decision is made is worth far more than a lunch and a brochure.
What is specified, where, by whom, and what gets swapped at tender. Nobody in Europe owns that data set - and only a consultancy can credibly generate it.
Augmenta raised a $10M seed, $25.6M in total, purely to automate electrical, mechanical and plumbing system design. The design automation is being built and will keep getting cheaper. The layer above it - who was specified, on what basis, and what the manufacturers would pay to know - is unbuilt, and it needs the credibility of a firm that actually seals drawings.
Code, models, prompts and runbooks transfer to your firm. If we disappeared tomorrow, the system keeps running.
The second workflow costs a fraction of the first, because permissions, integrations and audit trail are already built.
Human-approved gates, evidence on every output, separation between client projects, ISO 27001 and GDPR alignment, deployable in your own environment.
Our engineers sit inside your practice until it runs - then your people build on it, not just operate it.
We invest €50,000 of engineering into one real process inside your firm. Two minutes to apply, twenty to find out if you are a fit.
