AI platform for construction project controls and automation
About Nodes & Links
Nodes & Links is a London-based technology company that has developed an AI-powered platform for managing large-scale construction and infrastructure projects. Founded in 2018 by Greg Lawton and Dr. Christos Ellinas, the company was born out of their personal frustrations with the existing tools and technologies for project management. Lawton, the CEO, has a background in physics, engineering, and project management, including managing large defense programs for BAE Systems. Ellinas, the CTO, spent seven years in academic research developing data models to simulate and mitigate project risks. They met at the Entrepreneur First accelerator in London and established the company with a mission to address the gap between infrastructure demands and the available workforce by enhancing productivity through AI.
Read full description
The company's flagship platform, Aegis, utilizes proprietary, peer-reviewed AI technology, referred to as Vertical AI Agents, to automate workflows, predict risks, and provide real-time insights for project delivery. This enables project teams in sectors like construction, energy, aerospace, and defense to make faster and more informed decisions. The platform integrates with standard scheduling systems like P6, Asta Powerproject, and Microsoft Project, analyzing project data to deliver actionable intelligence. Key features include schedule health analysis, delay analysis, risk management, progress tracking, and AI-generated reports. By automating tasks such as progress reporting, which can traditionally consume significant time, the platform allows project managers to focus on addressing issues rather than generating reports. The system also includes an AI-powered CO2 tracker to help monitor and reduce the carbon footprint of projects.
Nodes & Links operates on a SaaS business model, offering its platform to a range of clients from large engineering firms and general contractors to project management offices. Pricing is based on a per-contributor basis, with free viewer seats available to facilitate information sharing within teams. The company has secured notable customers including AECOM, Intel, The Royal BAM Group, Turner & Townsend, and Costain. As of early 2025, Nodes & Links has raised a total of $24.8 million in funding over four rounds, with the latest being a $12 million Series B round led by ETF Partners. This funding is intended to support the company's expansion into the U.S. market and bolster its presence in Europe.
