Keplerworks
smarter and safer
built environments
Built for teams who face sustainability and lifecycle data pressures.
Architectural, engineering and construction firms are caught between rising expectations and inadequate tools.
Slow carbon analysis
Embodied carbon calculations that should take several hours to complete, consume days of manual spreadsheet work, often done too late to influence design decisions.
Manual risk reviews
Site visits and subsequent defect triage relies on handwritten notes, photographs filed in email threads, and engineer memory — inconsistent and hard to audit. Where applicable, inspection norms and structural context follow the project jurisdiction.
Heavy enterprise platforms
The tools that do exist cost six figures and require multi-month onboarding. SME consultancies can't absorb that overhead.
Messy and fragmented data
BIM models, site photos, climate datasets, and sensor feeds live in disconnected silos. Nobody has time to join them up before the client meeting. Keplerworks is designed to work with your existing data, not replace it.
Three tools. One coherent platform.
Keplerworks gives architecture, engineering and construction teams access to three specialist lifecycle analytics tools — each designed to answer a specific class of engineering and architectural question, quickly, reproducibly, and reliably.
Carbon
Analyses IFC model geometry and materials against globalised embodied carbon databases. Keplerworks Carbon tool provides suggestions for lower-carbon building material alternatives. Quantifiying savings per swap.
Defect
Processes site imagery and 3D LiDAR/model data using computer vision to flag common and uncommon defects based on large training data. Triages by severity. Links findings to model elements. Where applicable, inspection norms and structural context follow the project jurisdiction.
Resilience
Overlays climate projection data onto your IFC model. Scores flood, heat, wind and natural hazards for your geography based on large training data. Recommends design adaptations. Outputs are based on Keplerworks' global datasets specific to your geography, suitable to anywhere your project is located.
Outputs are report-ready. Every tool run produces relevant and actionable dashboards, issue lists, annotated images, PDF exports, and shareable links.
Keplerworks is developed by a senior civil and structural engineer. These outputs are an early-stage sustainability trigger for design decisions — not a replacement for a full whole-life or lifecycle carbon assessment where your project requires one. Apply your own firm's QA processes. Keplerworks is decision-support at the front end of design.
Keplerworks is designed to work with your existing data, not replace it. Your models and analyses stay yours — no training on client data, no cross-account visibility.
Built for the firms doing the actual building.
Structural & Civil Consultancies
Consultancies who need their built environment data and lifecycle analytics to function as an efficient workflow, not a project milestone.
Architectural Practices
Design-led practices who need built environment data and lifecycle analytics early enough to inform material decisions and specifications. Also where applicable, to inform design adaptations for climate resilience.
General Contractors
General contractors managing site quality assurance who need consistent, documented site inspection and defect records without adding admin overhead.
Owners & Operators
Asset owners who need a credible view of their portfolio's built environment data and lifecycle analytics for reporting and investment decisions.
Right-sized for the firms that build things.
- ✓ Right-sized for SMEs. Quota-based plans that scale with project count, not headcount. No six-figure contracts, no six-month onboarding. Free tier included. Keplerworks is designed to work with your existing data, not replace it.
- ✓ Engineer-aligned. Designed by a Senior Civil and Structural Engineer with 10 years experience in the field for engineering workflows — outputs speak the language of project teams, not data science teams. No lock-in to a single authoring environment.
- ✓ Technologically agnostic. Computer vision and LLM swappable reasoning for engineer and architect led site defect detection, leading LLM-powered carbon optimisation.
- ✓ Auditability by design. Every tool run is versioned, assumption-logged, and reproducible — an engineering tool you can defend in a client meeting.
- ✓ IFC-native and vendor-neutral. Works with any IFC file, including those exported from Tekla, ArchiCAD, Revit, or any open BIM tool. No lock-in to a single authoring environment.
What teams actually get.
Minutes to insight
Upload an IFC, with the Carbon tool, receive a full embodied carbon analysis (stages A1-A3) with material breakdown and reduction opportunities — before your next client call, not your next project phase.
Lower embodied carbon
Identify high-impact swap opportunities early with the Carbon tool, when design is still fluid. Quantified per-material savings so recommendations are actionable, not aspirational.
Faster site inspection and defect triage
With the Defect tool, computer vision triages site photographs and 3D LiDAR/model data by severity, links to model elements, and generates structured defect reports — eliminating the manual review backlog.
Resilience guidance
Using the Resilience tool, receive climate scenario analysis mapped to your specific building data, with design adaptation recommendations grounded in Keplerworks' global datasets specific to your geography, suitable to anywhere your project is located.
Consistent reporting
Every tool run produces structured outputs — dashboards, issue lists, PDF exports, share links — so reporting becomes a process, not a bespoke task.
Secure by default
Multi-tenant architecture with clear data isolation. Your models and analyses stay yours — no training on client data, no cross-account visibility. Keplerworks is designed to work with your existing data, not replace it.
A reliable engineering tool.
Modern advances in technology and AI bring genuine responsibility. Keplerworks is designed for professionals who need to stand behind their outputs — so we've built the trust architecture in from the start.
Clear confidence levels
Every tool run includes explicit confidence scores and the assumptions driving them. No unexplained numbers.
Assumptions logged
Every tool run records the inputs, parameters, and data sources used — reproducible and auditable.
Secure multi-tenant architecture
Strict data isolation between firms. Your models and analyses are never visible to other users or used for training. Keplerworks is designed to work with your existing data, not replace it.
LLM-swappable by design
Reasoning schemas are decoupled from any single provider. As better models emerge, outputs stay structured and consistent. Self-improving over time.
Built by a Senior Civil and Structural Engineer with 10 years experience in the field.
Credibility built in. 10 years across structural delivery, built environment data and lifecycle analytics reporting, and real-world site inspection and defect triage across a wide range of sectors and building types — so the outputs match how engineering decisions are actually made.
