Building the modern BIM analytics platform
The web has come a long way in the last ten years, but why is BIM data stuck in the past? It doesn't have to be that way. We want to change that. We want to reimagine BIM analytics.

Frame started from a simple observation: the construction industry invests heavily in creating detailed digital twins through BIM, only to see them become static artifacts after the design phase. As a Civil Engineer, I witnessed firsthand how the rich, technical data locked within our models remained largely inaccessible to project managers, estimators, and executives who needed these insights the most.
Research revealed a staggering problem—85% of construction firms fail to effectively analyze their project data, directly contributing to 14-21% cost overruns and 13-20% schedule delays. The culprit? BIM data remains siloed within complex software requiring specialized expertise, while 60-70% of critical decisions are still made without comprehensive data analysis.
We realized the industry didn't need another design tool—it needed a bridge between technical models and business intelligence. That's why we built Frame to connect your Autodesk and IFC models directly to tools teams already use, like Power BI and Excel. By creating a unified data environment and leveraging AI for plain-language queries, we're transforming BIM from a sophisticated drawing tool into a dynamic engine for business intelligence.
Today, Frame delivers 80% faster model-to-report preparation, automated repeatable reports straight from models, and enables teams to get from data to insight in minutes instead of weeks. We're not just building a tool—we're creating a new framework for construction intelligence that helps teams stop guessing and start steering their projects with confidence.
