AutoAlign is a Toronto-based Ontario corporation founded in 2023 with 13 full time employees. The team is led by CEO Dan Adamson and CTO Rahm Hafiz. The company was based on technology developed over several years with recognition of a need to optimize technical processes in industrial verticals including construction and manufacturing. AutoAlign’s AI platform increases performance and reliability of enterprise AI solutions in mixed-modal contexts including images and videos. With the right guardrails in place, AutoAlign can properly combine multi-modal data streams, mitigate hallucination and other errors, making the model more useful. This increases performance and ensures the AI behaves as expected.

Project Description: AutoAlign is building a Generative AI automation solution to transform the Construction industry’s current manual processes for creating accurate estimates for re-construction after a disaster. This project will leverage cutting-edge AI technology to enhance and transform processes in construction, creating game changing operational efficiencies, which will encourage the adoption of AI across the sector. AutoAlign has developed AI technology that can greatly accelerate this estimation process, automating the creation and error-checking of estimates based on notes, photos and videos.

Impact & Outcomes

By the end of this project, AutoAlign’s AI-powered software solution will deliver proof of concept in collaboration with industry partner Integricon. The solution will be packaged as a cloud-based system, with the software integrated into industry standard, featuring multimodal data processing, predictive analytics, and a user-friendly interface. If successful, this project will result in significantly increased revenue for AutoAlign, a projected $2 million in the first year, along with 8 new engineering jobs and 4 support roles. Additionally industry partner Integricon will see significantly reduced costs and labour due to higher productivity, improved quote accuracy, and improved customer experience, with projected costs per estimate reduced by $3000 on average. Most importantly, this innovation will allow Ontario residents and business to return to their homes and businesses an average of one week sooner after an insurance incident.
