Zürich , November 2024

Benetics is expanding its digital application for the coordination of construction projects. Construction reports, protocols and measurements can now be created using free voice input. The assistant is based on ChatGPT and can be used in over 30 languages and dialects.

Benetics has integrated a digital voice assistant into its digital application for the coordination of construction projects. The assistant, which is based on ChatGPT, can create construction reports, protocols and measurements using free voice input in more than 30 languages and dialects and transmit them to the office in real time, the Zurich-based proptech company explains in a press release. According to the press release, the new function is now available in the Benetics app. There are no additional costs for existing subscriptions.

“Tradespeople want to build – and not waste time on paperwork,” says Ferdinand Metzler, CEO of Benetics AG, in the press release. For them, documentation becomes a minor matter with the new voice assistant. The digital assistant also “significantly simplifies work for everyone involved in the project and enables companies to generate more revenue thanks to seamless documentation”.

The Zurich-based proptech was founded in 2022 by Metzler together with Aaron Shon and Johan Tibell. Its app, which was launched in October 2023, is already being used by 50 construction companies in Europe, according to the press release. Benetics worked with 15 tradespeople from various sectors to develop the digital voice assistant that has now been integrated into the app.
