Preckon AI construction platform launches in Dubai, targets GCC market
Imagine a very smart computer helper that helps people build houses, offices, and roads.
A new tool called Preckon does this for the construction business.
It was made by smart people from Canada and India.
A leader from India who works in Dubai, called the Consul General, officially started Preckon there.
Preckon's computer brain can read building plans and paperwork all by itself.
It can also guess how much a building project will cost and watch how the work is going.
This helps builders avoid delays, save money, and make better choices.
The Preckon team hopes to use it across the Middle East, in a group of countries called the GCC.
They also met with leaders in Ras Al Khaimah and Sharjah about bringing Preckon to those places.
This shows how Canada, India, and the United Arab Emirates are working together on new technology.
Preckon, an AI-native construction intelligence platform built by Canadian and Indian entrepreneurs, was officially launched in Dubai by Dr. E. Vishnu Vardhan Reddy, IFS, India's Consul General in Dubai.
The platform automates pre-construction planning, optimizes cost estimation, analyzes engineering drawings and tender documents, and delivers real-time project intelligence.
Preckon was co-founded by Sreedhar Gonepally (Sunny), CEO & Co-Founder of AIGCC LLC-FZ, and Uma Mahesh Mukkara, technology entrepreneur and Co-Founder of Preckon.
The delegation held strategic meetings with Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone (RAKEZ) officials to explore establishing Preckon's regional operations in Ras Al Khaimah.
The delegation also met Sharjah Research, Technology and Innovation Park (SRTIP) leadership to discuss collaboration involving AI, construction technology, innovation, and research commercialization.
