AI in Construction: 2026 Trends
How AI technologies are transforming construction: from cost estimation automation to predictive analytics on sites.
The construction industry is undergoing revolutionary changes thanks to artificial intelligence. In 2026, we are observing several key trends.
1. Cost Estimation Automation
AI agents can review a 100-item estimate in 5-10 minutes instead of 4-8 hours of manual work. This is not just acceleration — it eliminates human error and systemic mistakes.
2. Predictive Analytics
Analysis of site data allows predicting delays, budget overruns, and safety risks before they become critical.
3. RAG Technologies for Regulatory Compliance
The Stroyintel platform uses 3-tier RAG (ApeRAG + GraphRAG) to work with 203 regulatory documents — building codes, standards, and federal laws.
