TestFit

This platform offers the optimization of real estate feasibility studies to evaluate multiple scenarios in a short time, narrowing the range of outcomes, ensuring adequate planning for building projects, saving time on manual work, and maximizing site potential. Using algorithms and AI, the tool generates the massing of the building based on real-site GIS data, providing real-time insights into design, constructability, and cost. Overall, TestFit helps understand how different building types can perform on-site and provides square footage, facade takeoffs, and interior versus exterior square footage to estimate the cost of a given project.
