Optiml

Problem addressed
Real estate professionals face many challenges implementing and adhering to their sustainability goals while ensuring profitability. Many organisations lack quality data or tools to make informed decisions about their assets or portfolios. An ever-changing regulatory and market landscape can also make it difficult to ensure Net Zero strategies will remain relevant.
Overview of start-up
Optiml provides AI-powered software for intelligent cost and CO2 conscious decision support for real estate management. Their software enables real estate owners, asset managers, and consultants to generate sustainable returns with their portfolio on the pathway to Net Zero. Optiml’s solution analyses Capex, Opex, energy, CO2e, revenue, and policy to help you make strategies and action plans at the component, asset, and portfolio levels.
What makes the start-up innovative?
As a B2B SaaS, Optiml provides optimised “now what?” renovation decisions between ESG reporting & energy consultants, empowering owners to move beyond Excel for investment decisions. Optiml creates data transparency on renovation needs, optimises asset and portfolio investment decisions, and anticipates regulatory compliance. Each asset receives a ‘Data Score’ in the consideration of Capex, Opex, revenue, CO2e Scope 1-3, and energy to 2050. Using Optiml, organisations can better evaluate their existing assets to establish a baseline and evaluate progress towards Net Zero targets and regulations. Next, they can use Optiml to optimise investment strategies by re-prioritising assets, plan renovation strategies, and monitor strategies for long-term compliance.
How the start-up has been designed to scale-up quickly
Optiml is a fully scalable software already present in DACH + UK one year after launch. The software was developed on multiple PhDs at ETH Zurich.
