ATLANTA--(BISNOW) – cove, an Atlanta-based consulting firm that specializes in artificial intelligence-driven sustainable design, has launched a full-service AI-powered architecture practice, Cove Architecture, which recently completed its first project: a multifamily complex located in Atlanta’s West End neighborhood.

This project, whose design was achieved in 15 days, leveraged two AI frameworks—VItras.ai and ARK_BIM—that cove developed. The firm said in a prepared statement that it has been working on and refining these software products for a decade at a cost of more than $25 million.

Vitras.ai sifts through volumes of data that would otherwise take a human team weeks to process and surfaces critical insights in real time. It flags cost variables, highlights code or FEMA compliance issues, and pinpoints potential red flags with over 95% accuracy. ARK_BIM takes the intelligence from Vitras.ai and translates it into dynamic 3D models, complete with cost analyses and construction documents. This all happens in a web-based platform designed with a Git-style version control enabling parallel collaboration.

“When we started cove, we began by building software for others to optimize costs, compress timelines, and meet performance standards,” explained Sandeep Ahuja, Co-founder and CEO of cove. “Over time, we realized that the best way to showcase the true potential of our technology was to use it ourselves, end to end. Today, that technology forms the bedrock of our architecture services – rather than just offering tools, we guide projects from concept to completion.”

Patrick Chopson, Co-founder and CPO of cove, added that the firm has spent years perfecting simulation engines and building the robust data sets that now serve as the “brain” for Vitras.ai and ARK_BIM.
