Runopt AI-powered software for land development delivering cost-effective, sustainable designs in minutes.

What is Runopt?

Runopt provides an innovative, AI-driven software solution specifically designed for the land development sector. It revolutionizes traditional processes by integrating layout, grading, drainage, and utilities into a unified optimization problem. This approach aims to significantly accelerate design timelines, reduce project costs, and minimize the environmental impact associated with development projects.

The platform assists civil engineers, urban planners, developers, and construction firms by automating complex calculations and repetitive design tasks. By handling zoning complexities, optimizing grading and drainage, and providing data-driven recommendations, Runopt enables professionals to focus on creative problem-solving and deliver sustainable, cost-effective site designs more efficiently. It also facilitates better collaboration and decision-making through customizable reporting and compliance checks.

FAQs

How does Runopt differ from existing land development software?

Runopt integrates all design components (layout, grading, drainage, utilities) into one comprehensive optimization problem, unlike tools focusing on isolated aspects. This allows it to identify synergies and trade-offs between different construction costs, eliminating time-consuming manual iterations.
What kinds of projects is Runopt suitable for?

Runopt is designed for a wide range of projects including residential, commercial, transportation, and industrial site developments. Specific use cases like rail and agricultural projects are planned for future releases.
Can users maintain manual control over the design process?

Yes, users have flexibility. They can choose not to automate certain parts of the design before running the optimization, or they can manually alter specific positions, grading, sizes, etc., after the optimization process is complete.
How is user data protected within Runopt?

Runopt prioritizes data privacy by encrypting data both in transit (HTTPS) and at rest. Users have the option to delete their uploaded data at any time, and assistance with local data storage is available for larger companies.
