2025: A Year of Extraordinary Milestones
The past year has been transformative in ways that have exceeded our boldest expectations. Together, we’ve achieved milestones that reflect not just growth, but the deepening trust and collaboration that define our community.
We surpassed 1,000 projects analyzed, a testament to how Firmus has become essential to preconstruction workflows across North America. Through these projects, we identified over 211,000 design issues, potentially saving our customers $422 million in avoided RFIs and disputes. Our Enterprise Plan subscriptions grew 125% year-over-year as more industry leaders recognized the value of AI-powered financial risk management.
Perhaps most significantly, Firmus became part of Bluebeam, a Nemetschek company. This partnership opens exciting new possibilities for integration and innovation, allowing us to bring AI-powered preconstruction insights to an even broader community of construction professionals.
Throughout 2025, we remained committed to expanding our capabilities based on your feedback. We released the Firmus AI-MATCH™ full set-to-set matching tool, which has already processed more than 140 projects in its first three months. We added comprehensive new checks across architectural, MEP, and document health disciplines, including architectural horizontal assemblies, plumbing fixtures, and gridlines. And we unveiled a completely redesigned user interface with streamlined navigation and modern color themes that make your daily work more intuitive and efficient.
Charting a New Course for 2026
As we look ahead, our vision is shaped by three strategic focus areas that will define our work in 2026 and beyond.
Bluebeam Integration
Our integration with Bluebeam represents more than a partnership—it’s an opportunity to revolutionize how assistive AI technologies work within the tools you already use. We’re focused on broadening the scope of automated checks within Bluebeam Max, increasing both coverage and accuracy to catch even more issues before they become costly liabilities.
Firmus Standalone Scaling & Retention
For our standalone platform users, we’re committed to maintaining the exceptional customer satisfaction you’ve come to expect while thoughtfully scaling to serve our growing user base. This means continued investment in the features, support, and responsiveness that make Firmus an indispensable part of your preconstruction process.
Foundation for Scale and Future Innovation
Behind the scenes, we’re making significant investments in our core infrastructure and architecture. This foundational work will enable us to develop and deploy new features more rapidly, ensuring we can continue to evolve with your needs and realize our long-term product vision.
Our Vision: Empowering the Heroes of Construction
Since our founding in 2019, our mission has remained constant even as we’ve grown: to harness the power of AI to empower the contractors, architects, engineers, and construction professionals who work under immense pressure, create something enduring.
We envision preconstruction professionals as the heroes of their organizations—leveraging data and insights to foresee risks and seize opportunities before the first shovel breaks ground. Every issue identified, every conflict resolved, every dollar saved represents not just efficiency, but the expertise and diligence of professionals like you who refuse to accept “good enough.”
As we enter 2026 with the strength of the Bluebeam and Nemetschek family behind us, we’re more committed than ever to being your trusted partner in this critical work.
A Message of Gratitude
Each milestone we celebrate, each innovation we launch, and each problem we solve together deepens our appreciation for this community. Thank you for making Firmus an integral part of your preconstruction process. Thank you for your feedback, your partnership, and your trust as we navigate this exciting new chapter together.
Here’s to building the future of construction—together!
