SAN FRANCISCO, CA – 20/12/2025 – (SeaPRwire) – Briq has unveiled a significant expansion of its autonomous AI work platform, Otto, marking a new phase in automation for construction and engineering firms that rely on Trimble’s software ecosystem. The latest enhancements enable Otto to operate seamlessly across leading Trimble solutions—including Tekla, Viewpoint, Spectrum, and related platforms—allowing companies to automate complex workflows from design through financial operations with minimal human intervention.
Trimble’s applications have long functioned as core systems of record for the construction industry, supporting critical activities such as modeling, project controls, and financial management. Briq’s Otto builds upon this established foundation by introducing what the company describes as “systems of action”: autonomous digital workers capable of executing tasks across multiple enterprise systems, rather than simply tracking or reporting on work.
By deploying Otto, firms can move beyond traditional reliance on dashboards, approvals, and manual handoffs. The platform is designed to carry out end-to-end execution across both project-level and back-office processes, enabling continuous operations that reduce delays and operational friction.
Within the Tekla environment, Otto supports automated quantity takeoffs and constructability insights, while maintaining continuous synchronization between design models, estimating tools, and procurement systems. Model changes can directly trigger downstream tasks, helping teams respond faster to evolving project requirements.
Across Viewpoint and Spectrum, Otto enables autonomous handling of financial workflows, including accounts payable and receivable, payroll processing, and job cost updates. The platform also supports continuous reconciliation between field activity, financial data, and project controls, shifting exception handling to real time rather than relying on labor-intensive month-end processes.
Beyond individual applications, Otto is designed to function across the broader Trimble ecosystem. Its AI workers are capable of understanding jobs, cost codes, vendors, contracts, and schedules, allowing for intelligent data movement between systems—not just within them. This approach reduces dependence on manual data transfers, “swivel-chair” workflows, and offshore labor, while improving consistency and accuracy.
“Trimble has established some of the most critical systems of record in construction,” said Bassem Hamdy, CEO of Briq. “Otto transforms those platforms into systems of action by autonomously executing work across projects and the back office. The goal is to shift from software that simply monitors work to software that actively performs it, at enterprise scale.”
Unlike copilots or point solutions that automate isolated steps, Otto is positioned as a full autonomous work platform. It is designed to execute discrete tasks end-to-end across multiple systems, enabling organizations to operate more efficiently, scale without proportional increases in overhead, and make decisions with greater confidence.
As construction firms face mounting pressure to deliver projects faster while controlling costs, the integration of Trimble’s established platforms with Otto’s autonomous execution capabilities signals a broader shift in how digital work is performed across the industry.
