Zenesis is an independent, web-based planning platform that operates outside of Archicad and exchanges data with Graphisoft products through dedicated add-ons.
Description
Zenesis is a web-based planning platform that structures and validates technical decisions in the earliest phases of MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) engineering — before BIM modeling begins.
Overview
In early project stages such as proposals, feasibility studies and concept planning, MEP engineering firms typically rely on fragmented Excel workflows and implicit expert knowledge. Zenesis replaces these with a structured, quality-assured decision foundation that connects directly to Archicad and MEP Designer workflows.
Key capabilities
- Structured decision environment for proposals, feasibility studies and early concept planning
- Rule-based validation logic for consistent assumptions, parameters and calculations
- Centralized data foundation as a single source of truth for early planning decisions
- Standardization of firm-specific best practices as reusable decision logic
Who It's For
MEP engineering firms (50–500 employees), general planners with in-house MEP departments, technical directors, project managers and digitalization leads working on new construction, renovation or infrastructure projects.
Typical Workflows
- Creating validated technical documentations with consistent assumptions across the team
- Running feasibility checks and early concept comparisons based on structured data
- Building a reusable knowledge base from senior engineering expertise
