cove Announces Winner of Inaugural AI for Architects Pitch Off

Expert Judging Panel Selects Sabana, an AI-Driven Data Management Platform as Winner

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--cove, the AI for Architecture company leading the change toward a technology-enabled future, has announced the winner of its inaugural AI for Architects Pitch Off. Designed to spotlight emerging AI technologies in the architecture industry, the competition aimed to accelerate innovation and improve workflows across the AEC industry.

Sabana, an AI-powered data management platform that simplifies how architects and engineers manage, document, and collaborate on product selections and construction specifications, took home the $5,000 USD grand prize.

“The caliber of submissions was incredibly encouraging,” said Sandeep Ahuja, CEO and Co-Founder of cove. “We’re strong believers in AI’s potential to transform architecture. After narrowing it down to five standout finalists, our esteemed judging panel carefully deliberated before selecting Sabana as the winner.”

Sabana acts as a centralized hub for product-related data, helping architects and engineers capture, organize, and standardize information throughout the design process. Its platform enables teams to compare options efficiently, reduce errors, and automate spec writing. By streamlining workflows and surfacing low-carbon alternatives, Sabana supports better coordination, sustainability, and time savings across project teams.

“Sabana exemplifies the type of bold, forward-thinking solution the industry needs,” added Ahuja. “Its focus on eliminating manual bottlenecks and improving consistency makes it incredibly valuable for real-world practice.”

The competition served as a forum to continue the conversation around the future of AI-driven design and to support entrepreneurs advancing the AEC industry through innovation. It also marked a timely and exciting moment for cove, as the company recently introduced Cove Architecture, its full-service architecture practice. This new division is designed to help usher in a new era of architectural delivery, powered by a two-part AI framework aimed at reshaping how teams design and execute building projects.

“Participating in cove’s Pitch Off was an honor,” said Ruben Quesada, Co-Founder and CEO of Sabana. “We’re proud to be recognized among such a passionate group of innovators, and this win reinforces our mission to modernize how product data is managed in the built environment.”
