Imagine your home is overflowing with clutter. You hire a professional organizer who tidies everything up—but without proper shelves and storage, the clean items just end up in a neat pile on the floor. That’s what happens when you rely solely on AI to clean up your asset data, especially when managing furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E) for owner-furnished items in repeatable commercial spaces.
Let me tell you a little secret about working in BIM: the more data you cram into your model, the more of a nightmare it becomes to manage. Early in my career as a BIM Manager, I thought it was smart to add as much data as possible to Revit Families for owner-furnished items (OFI).
It’s 2025 and we’re still doing manual data entry? Check out this video demo of how Kit, our AI copilot in Ephany, is now able to solve this problem.
I believe BIM is experiencing some growing pains, as with any new technology would. I’m starting to see that there is too much data in…

Managing furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E) across a fleet of stores is a complex challenge for physical retail organizations. Surprisingly, some of the largest retail brands in the world are managing those assets in Excel spreadsheets (or other similar format). If that statement resonated with you, the below image probably looks all too familiar.
We’re on a mission to simplify how businesses roll out furniture, fixtures, and equipment, but we know one thing: the best solutions are built alongside the people who use them every day.
