Data-driven competition decisions

Yes. Metabuild is built on a globally established and extensively validated simulation engine (EnergyPlus). Our technology has been developed in cooperation with leading research partners and applied in large-scale real-world projects. Every project result is additionally reviewed by our engineering team.

You receive CO₂ results per variant and a clear assessment of which measures reduce emissions effectively — and which are costly with limited impact.
Depending on the project, both operational emissions and embodied effects are assessed, enabling genuinely effective climate strategies.

Metabuild shows which options make your building future-proof. Risks, target corridors and actionable pathways become transparent. By linking energy and CO₂ impact with economic performance, Metabuild turns ESG into an investable strategy — not a reporting obligation.

Metabuild provides you with transparent insights into daylight, thermal comfort and indoor air quality — including where buildings become critical in operation (e.g. overheating, under-ventilation, poor air quality) and which measures deliver the greatest comfort gains.
We simulate real building operation over 8,760 hours per year and show when, where and why comfort issues occur.

Key outputs include:

• Daylight comfort: share of adequately daylit area (sDA – Spatial Daylight Autonomy), areas with potential glare or overexposure (ASE – Annual Sunlight Exposure), and more.
• Thermal comfort: time shares within comfort categories (I–III), overheating and discomfort hours, and operative temperature as perceived temperature.
• Air quality: CO₂ concentrations, contaminant indicators (e.g. TVOC), humidity, outdoor air flow rates and air change rates.
• Draft and radiant effects: early-warning indicators for typical comfort drivers such as excessive air movement or hot/cold surfaces.

Metabuild analyzes construction costs, operating costs, maintenance and replacement costs, and life cycle costs over 50 years. Costs are calculated based on detailed quantity calculations from the simulation model. Construction cost estimates are regularly updated and validated against market data. Variants are evaluated in direct comparison. This allows you to see how decisions affect not only CAPEX, but also operating and life cycle costs.

Getting started with Metabuild is designed to be quick. In a short kickoff meeting, we clarify your goals, priorities, and the available documentation. Our team then takes over the modeling process and runs the simulations and variant analyses.
You don’t need to implement any software or build up internal tool capabilities—you’ll quickly receive results that are ready for decision-making.

Metabuild works for builders, investors, developers, and property owners—in other words, for those responsible for budgets and risk management. Whether you are dealing with new construction, existing properties, or portfolios, if you want to make economically sound and future-proof decisions, you have come to the right place.
