Join us for the Buildings AI 2027 Release Event as we unveil the latest capabilities, demonstrate new workflows, and explore how engineering teams can build models faster, reduce repetitive work, and create more connected building energy workflows.
Building performance modeling often begins long before simulation does. Engineers first need to interpret architectural drawings, build geometry, define spaces, assign materials, configure schedules, and prepare the model before they can even begin evaluating performance. Buildings AI 2027 is designed to change that workflow.
The Buildings AI 2027 Release marks a new step forward in whole-building performance modeling, bringing AI, simulation, and interoperability together in a more connected workflow. Powered by Agentic AI and EnergyPlus, Buildings AI helps engineering teams move more efficiently from architectural information to simulation-ready models and meaningful performance insights.
The latest 2026 release makes this workflow easier to navigate with capabilities such as PDF2BIM and Revit imports, Digital Twin exports, developer APIs, HVAC Canvas and AI-assisted model setup. From assigning materials, schedules, and space types to generating custom, branded reports, Buildings AI reduces repetitive work while giving engineers more time to focus on analysis and design decisions.
During this launch event, explore the capabilities behind Buildings AI 2027, see the new workflows in action, and discover how AI-powered assistance and seamless interoperability can transform the way building performance models are created, analyzed, and delivered.
