FAQs

Getting a carbon estimate from the first sketch, before a detailed model exists.

Get started
What is the Reduzer automodel?

The automodel is an early-phase calculator that builds a simplified building from high-level inputs: floor area, number of storeys, main structural material, so you get a carbon estimate without manual modelling. It gives you a usable baseline quickly, then sharpens as real data is added.

Can I calculate carbon without a BIM model?

Yes. The early-phase calculator works without BIM. It produces a baseline from the automodel, high-level assumptions (such as area and building type), or a simple Excel quantity list. You can later import a detailed IFC model on a new version to refine the result.

When should I use early-phase calculation?

At the very start: concept, sketch, or tender. That's when the largest carbon reductions are easiest to make. Starting early also means much of your TEK17 or Klimatdeklaration documentation builds up as you go.

How accurate is an early-phase carbon estimate?

It's an informed approximation that combines high-level design concept inputs with typical material build-ups, such as complete wall or floor assemblies, to provide a comprehensive baseline. This allows you to compare options and guide decisions early on, growing more precise as real quantities, energy data, and product EPDs are added.
