The construction industry - a behemoth of untapped tooling

One issue I keep noticing in the construction industry today is how long it still takes to answser simple carbon/sustainability questions.

Usually it's not because the team lacks intent. It's because the information sits across:
- multiple models.
- drawings.
- specs, PDFs, spreadsheets
Someone has to pull it all together before anything useful can be assessed.
That means a question like: "Which option is better from a carbon reduction/sustainability point of view?" can take much longer than it should. On a fast-moving project, that delay matters.

Moonshop - Sustainability intelligence tooling for construction teams

moonshop.ai - aimed at architects, engineers, and construction teams. I am building the tooling necessary for a construction industry which has been largely forgotten in this era. A one-platform approach to: - Provide sustainability intel for your project (globalised embodied carbon datasets so the output is relevant to where your project is located) - Informs structural defect triage and reporting through computer-vision - Climate resilience intel (e.g. seismic/flood/heat) for your project
