Be the First to Know
Feature Spotlight: AkitaBox Layers
Turn static documents into living, layered intelligence. Instantly align floorplans, assets, and technical markups to real-world coordinates—all in one view.
What You Can Layer
- Floorplans: Visualize as-built, proposed, and phased renovation plans.
- Critical Assets: Pinpoint HVAC units, panels, pumps, and sensors.
- MEP Systems: Overlay electrical, plumbing, and mechanical zones.
- Safety & Security: Map sprinklers, egress paths, cameras, and access points.
- IT Infrastructure: Track cable trays, fiber paths, and IDF/MDF rooms.
Why It Matters
- Immediate Context: See exactly where assets and systems live in the real world.
- Faster Decisions: Compare multiple floorplan versions or phases in seconds.
- Reduced Site Time: Technicians arrive onsite knowing exact locations.
- Cross-Team Clarity: Toggle specific layers (e.g., Plumbing vs. IT) to focus the conversation.
- Total Accuracy: Georeferenced anchors eliminate guesswork.
Powerful Controls
- Unlimited Layers: Add as much depth as the project requires.
- Precision Alignment: Drag, resize, and rotate for exact fits.
- Smart Visualization: Use opacity and visibility toggles for instant comparisons.
Feature Spotlight: Enhanced Costing with AI Assistance
Accelerated Cost Data Collection
- Instant Data Entry: AI instantly suggests relevant costs, eliminating manual typing.
- One-Click Catalog Costing: Apply complex, detailed costs groups from your Cost Catalog instantly.
- No Missed Costs: AI automatically detects and suggests costs as you collect.
- Apply Multiple Cost Lines to each entity.
Enhanced Planning & Accuracy
- Precise 5-10 Year Forecasts: Model inflation specifically by cost type (Labor vs. Material).
- Standardized Benchmarking: Enforce consistent, approved costs across all facilities.
- Defensible Budget Approval: Every request is backed by validated, line-by-line(Multiple Cost Lines) detail.
- Eliminate Variance: Stop subjectivity; ensure identical assets have identical budgeting standards.
AI in AkitaBox Capture -- Instant Asset Intelligence
Efficiency and Automation
Make every team member a data capture expert.
- Lightning-Fast Data Capture: Capture AI automatically extracts asset type, make, model, serial number, unit size, and manufacture/install date in seconds. Plus, it recommends useful life, replacement dates, and costs (accept and edit them as needed). Transform weeks of work into hours.
- Slash Labor Costs: Your skilled technicians/data collectors can focus on high-value tasks instead of manual data entry. More strategic work, better ROI on your team’s expertise.
Improved Data Quality and Completeness
Because “close enough” isn’t good enough.
- Accuracy That Matters: Say goodbye to typos, misread labels, and transcription mistakes. Human errors vanish when Capture AI handles the heavy lifting.
- Standardized Structure: Normalize inconsistent manufacturer labels into clean, structured data that meets Transforming Data Collection (TDC) and FCA data standards. One format to rule them all.
- Fill the Gaps: Damaged or incomplete tags? Our predictive analytics estimates useful life, replacement costs, unit sizing, and manufacturing year. Complete datasets for capital forecasting, asset valuation, and risk modeling.
Enhanced Financial and Regulatory Compliance
Stay audit-ready without breaking a sweat.
- Clear Audit Trail: Automated capture creates an unbreakable chain from physical tag to digital record. Strengthens Model Risk Management (MRM) and data governance frameworks under FCA scrutiny.
- Robust Stress Testing: Complete asset data enables granular scenario analysis for operational resilience and asset replacement impact on financial stability.
Superior Risk Management
See problems coming before they see you.
- Predictive Planning: Move from reactive scrambling to proactive lifecycle management with accurate useful life and manufacturing year data. Budget with surgical precision and make CFOs love you.
- Smart Insurance Planning: Reliable replacement cost and unit sizing data mean accurate coverage calculations and contingency funds. Sleep better at night.
Turn data collection from your biggest bottleneck into your greatest competitive advantage.
Accelerate Digital Twin Deployment with Instant Asset Hierarchy
Our latest feature coming to AkitaBox lets you go from empty map to fully mapped, scheduled, and configured Digital Twin in hours.
The Power of Instant Asset Hierarchy:
- Bulk Creation & Deployment: Quickly create and deploy multiple distinct asset types (HVAC, Rooms, IT Racks, Fire Extinguishers, etc.) individually or in bulk.
- Intelligent Spatial Mapping: New assets are instantly assigned location and fit into a configurable hierarchy (e.g., Property > Building > Floor > Room > Asset). Say goodbye to manual location data entry!
- One-Click Setup: Apply asset templates, operational schedules (like a quarterly inspection), and maintenance protocols to an entire newly created group with a single click.
Why It Matters:
- Accelerated Digital Twin Completion: Reduce facility digitization time from days to hours.
- Reduced Configuration Errors: Automated spatial association eliminates manual data entry mistakes common in legacy systems.
- Enhanced Data Accuracy: Hierarchical organization and accurate location data unlocks deeper analytics and more powerful scenario planning (e.g., assessing zone-to-zone relationships).
Powerful Control:
- Granular Templates: Apply different pre-configured templates to distinct asset types within the same bulk operation.
- Real-time Validation: Get instant feedback if an asset placement violates a pre-set business rule (like placing a server rack outside an approved IT zone).
Coming Soon ... Geolocated Data in AkitaBox
This release brings unprecedented clarity and precision, allowing you to instantly move from a portfolio overview down to a specific asset’s location:
- Comprehensive Portfolio Map: Get a complete, at-a-glance overview of your entire asset portfolio on a single interactive map.
- Precision Geolocation: Pinpoint every asset with real-world accuracy. Place items using precise latitude/longitude coordinates to ensure your map reflects reality.
- Custom Asset Visualization: Clearly distinguish your assets. Represent different locations, buildings, or equipment with customizable map pins, icons, or geographic shapes (polygons).
- Dynamic Plan Overlays: Bring your site plans to life. Overlay detailed blueprints, schematics, or floor plans directly onto their real-world map locations.
- Advanced Alignment Toolkit: Perfectly align your plans every time. Use powerful tools to easily scale, rotate, crop, and position your overlays for a precise fit.
