111 billion reasons: why Brickanta matters for construction and real-estate development
Sep 30, 2025
Sweden’s National Board of Housing (Boverket) estimates more than SEK 111 billion in annual losses from errors and inefficiency in construction, the same figure is in the trillions globally. Brickanta is launching its AI platform to help construction, contracting and real-estate development turn that number around.
Stockholm, 30 September 2025 – Construction accounts for roughly ten percent of GDP in Sweden and the EU. At the same time, more than SEK 111 billion is lost every year to miscalculations, misunderstandings and late discoveries, according to Boverket. The impact is felt across construction, contracting and real-estate development—and ultimately by society.
Where projects leak value
Project material scattered across requirements, drawings and contracts
Small changes that go unnoticed and become costly on-site
Change orders can be predicted and handled proactively instead of reactively
The result: insecure estimates, delays and squeezed margins.
Brickanta helps teams keep documents and decisions together so critical details are surfaced in time. The goal is clearer bids, fewer surprises and more predictable projects—from housing to commercial builds and infrastructure.
AI for construction and real-estate development
Construction companies: faster bid cycles and better traceability
Contractors: earlier risk capture and more controlled change orders
Developers: stronger decision material from early stages through procurement
Industry voices from partner-customers
– “Our team has worked with AI in other data-heavy industries, where we quickly recognized the same patterns of inefficient workflows – patterns AI is uniquely positioned to improve. We are building a platform designed to scale globally, with construction cost estimation as the first vertical,” said Linus Bein Fahlander, co-founder and CTO of Brickanta AI.
