Our guiding principles

At Bluebeam, our AI approach aligns with the Nemetschek Groupโ€™s principles for responsible, human-centered innovation. Backed by Nemetschek, a global organization with deep expertise and resources, we uphold these standards at scale, so customers benefit from secure, transparent AI built to enhance their work.

1

Transparency and Explainability

Make AI outputs and decisions understandable to users. Provide explanations of how conclusions are reached.

2

Privacy and Data Security

Adhere to stringent data privacy regulations and best practices, ensuring that user data is securely stored. Obtain consent from users for data collection and usage. Anonymize data where possible.

3

Robustness and Reliability

Conduct thorough testing and validation of AI models before deployment. Implement fail-safes and fallback mechanisms to maintain system integrity. Keep humans in the loop and engaged for any potentially critical tasks.

4

Accountability

Take responsibility for how our AI performs. We set clear ownership between us and our LLM partners, follow ethical standards, and act quickly to address issues if they arise.

5

Human Oversight

Offer transparent controls to turn AI features on or off. We respect user agency by ensuring AI remains a tool controlled by you.

6

Stewards of Change

Help users adopt to new realities as AI is changing job roles and expectations.
