// What Bina does

Compliance, handled end to end

From first upload to permit-ready package, Bina covers the full compliance workflow small and mid-sized AE firms can't justify hiring a dedicated team for.

01

Upload any design file

Drop in Revit, IFC, DWG, or PDF drawings. Bina reads your model and drawing set without changing your existing workflow or software.

02

Automated code & zoning checks

Every setback, egress width, parking ratio, and zoning rule is checked against current Dubai Municipality and Trakhees requirements — automatically.

03

Violations with suggested fixes

Don't just see what's wrong — see how to fix it. Each flagged violation comes with a concrete, code-referenced suggestion your team can act on.

04

Clash detection, built in

Structural, MEP, and architectural clashes are surfaced alongside compliance issues, so your team resolves conflicts in one pass, not three.

05

Permit-ready submission package

Export a structured, authority-ready package — annotated drawings, compliance report, and checklists — formatted for direct submission.

06

Minutes, not weeks

Replace days of manual code-checking and back-and-forth with authorities with a review cycle that fits inside a single afternoon.

// Why Bina, not a general-purpose tool

Built for the gap competitors leave open

UpCodes, Revit/BIM 360, and Solibri all solve adjacent problems well. Bina is built specifically to close what they leave to manual work — for firms that can't afford a dedicated compliance team.

General code reference tools

vs. UpCodes

Great for looking up code text — but it doesn't check your actual design against it. Teams still manually cross-reference drawings sheet by sheet.

Bina

Bina checks your uploaded design directly against Dubai Municipality & Trakhees rules and tells you exactly where it fails — no manual lookup.

Authoring & coordination platforms

vs. Revit · BIM 360

Powerful for modeling and coordination, but compliance checking against local authority codes isn't built in — it requires separate consultants or plugins.

Bina

Bina plugs the compliance gap left by authoring tools, reading your exported model straight into a Dubai-specific checking engine.

Model QA & clash detection

vs. Solibri

Strong generic rule-checking, but configuring it for Dubai Municipality and Trakhees specifics takes heavy manual setup most SMB firms can't justify.

Bina

Bina ships with Dubai code depth out of the box, plus a permit-ready export — not just a rule-checking engine you have to configure yourself.

// The workflow

From upload to permit-ready in one pass

01

Upload your design

Submit your Revit, IFC, DWG, or PDF files. No change to your existing authoring tools.

02

Automated compliance scan

Bina checks zoning, setbacks, egress, parking, fire code, and more against Dubai Municipality & Trakhees rules.

03

Review flags & fixes

See every violation and clash with a suggested fix, prioritized by severity and submission impact.

04

Export the permit package

Generate an annotated, authority-ready submission package in a single export.

// Depth over breadth

We're going deep on Dubai first.

Compliance tools that try to cover every jurisdiction end up shallow everywhere. Bina is built around one code set first — Dubai Municipality and Trakhees — so every rule, setback, and submission template is genuinely accurate, not a generic approximation.

Once Dubai is rock-solid, we expand emirate by emirate, and from small-to-mid AE firms toward larger developers and contractors who need the same rigor at scale.

// Early access feedback

What firms are telling us

Representative feedback gathered from design-partner conversations ahead of general availability.

“We used to lose two to three days per project just cross-checking setbacks and fire code manually. Having those flagged automatically before submission would change how we plan deadlines.”
SA

Sara Al Hammadi

Principal Architect, Al Marsa Architects

“Our engineers aren't compliance specialists — none of our ten-person firm is. A tool that reads our model and tells us exactly what Trakhees will reject is exactly the gap we have.”
OS

Omar Siddiqui

Managing Partner, Qasr & Partners Engineering

“What sold us was the permit package export, not just the checks. Formatting submissions by hand is the part nobody on our team wants to do.”
