EARTHBRAIN Ltd. (President: Akinori Onodera, hereinafter 'EARTHBRAIN') announces the launch of its new service, 'Construction Document AI,' starting today, designed to streamline document creation tasks at construction sites. This service utilizes generative AI to automatically create drafts of construction plans, significantly reducing the time spent on document preparation—a traditional bottleneck—and contributing to the improvement of labor environments and productivity, which are urgent issues in the construction industry. Background and Objectives: The construction industry is currently facing numerous challenges, including compliance with overtime regulations (the 2024 problem), severe labor shortages, and an aging workforce. In particular, prime contractor site managers are overwhelmed by massive amounts of paperwork, and it has typically taken five or more days to create a construction plan. 'Construction Document AI' was developed to eliminate the 'searching, transcribing, and writing' tasks in document creation by maximizing the use of generative AI, aiming to drastically reduce the time required for construction planning. Furthermore, the feature allowing for the editing of generated plans enables engineers to quickly formalize their expertise. This provides an environment where engineers can focus on higher-value tasks such as construction planning and safety management. Expected Benefits: The introduction of this service is expected to significantly shorten the time required for creating construction plans. Creation time (per project): Approx. 125 hours -> Approx. 75 hours (approx. 40% reduction). Cost reduction effect (when handling 10 projects per year): Equivalent to approx. 2 million yen annually. EARTHBRAIN will continue to promote the digitalization of all information at construction sites through the use of digital technology, aiming to improve productivity, safety, and environmental performance, and to create a smart and clean future for construction sites. Overview of 'Construction Document AI': 1. Key Features: (1) Automatic generation of construction plan drafts: By simply uploading past plans, client standards, and quantity calculations, the AI analyzes the content and generates a draft. It creates construction methods, quality control standards, and photo management lists based on the format and nuance of past documents. (2) Intuitive editing interface: Generated drafts can be edited on a dedicated screen. Users can intuitively add text, edit tables, and insert images, while double-checking against source materials displayed side-by-side. Completed documents can be exported in Excel or PDF. (3) Assetization of organizational knowledge: By centralizing construction plan data, companies can turn their processes into corporate assets, facilitating talent development even for less experienced staff. 2. Launch Date: April 1, 2026 (Wednesday). 3. Sales Method: Sold by EARTHBRAIN and its distributors. 4. Service Website: https://www.landlog.jp/document-ai 5.
