Build and operate
from the whole picture.

A living world model of the built environment. Every drawing, spec, bid, schedule, price, and change, connected into one model that stays current from early design through decades of operation.

The built world doesn't need another tool. It needs the ones it has to talk. Aera Nexus connects every model, spec, schedule, price, and change into one living picture, so nothing falls between the people who design it, build it, and operate it.

One living model
of the whole project.

Every source flows in. The model resolves them into connected entities. Coworkers and agents work from that one model.

Read every source.

Records, documents, and feeds are parsed for the things they mention: projects, elements, materials, documents, activities, people.

Any part of the building.
Its whole story.

Every record, person and decision that touches a part is connected to it, from the first drawing to year eight. Here is one glass panel.

Every record, person and decision that touches this glass panel, inside the world model of the whole project. Pick a topic to light it up.

Agents that know
before you do.

Ambient agents are not prompted. They watch the model and the world around it, around the clock, and act the moment a tariff lands, a price moves, or a supplier wobbles.

Runs continuously, and gets sharper every pass.

Built for everyone who shapes the built world.

Designers, builders, and owners, working from the same live model.

Project managers see the budget variance before it becomes a change order.
Estimators see cost changes as they happen, with agents watching unit costs in every market.
Owners get the insight to act early and mitigate market swings they can't control.

Vera, the Aera Nexus coworker: a blue fuzzy character in a white hard hat

Ask Vera anything about the job.

Vera answers from your own drawings, specs, bids, and history, and shows where every answer came from. When you need a specialist, the rest of the team is one click away.

Twice, plus one related inlet issue. The earlier it was caught, the less it cost. 21-108 was caught at submittal: discharge extension plus wind bracing, $49,600. 22-131 was caught after startup: louvered screen and planning board approval, $71,500, 9 weeks. 24-062 had the screen too close to the inlets; the tower shifted 3 ft, $6,800. 23-014 doesn't ask about inlet clearance yet.
