Winners of the 2025 Trimble 0-60 highlight emerging tech
Award recipients advance generative design, automation, and real-time spatial intelligence
Trimble has revealed the winners of its 2025 0-60 Challenge, a startup competition developed in collaboration with Trimble Ventures to identify innovative digital and AI-driven solutions for the architecture, engineering, construction, and asset-lifecycle industries. The program provides selected startups with access to Trimble expertise, technology integrations, and industry exposure to help accelerate the development and adoption of their solutions.
Sixteen finalists, selected from a global applicant pool, presented their solutions this past November at Trimble's Dimensions User Conference in Las Vegas. The top three winners were recognized for leveraging integrations with Trimble Connect and multiple Trimble software platforms, including ProjectSight, SketchUp, and Tekla. Winners were selected across three categories: Connected Data, Connected Design, and Connected Field or Job Site. Each received a cash prize. Entries were evaluated by an eight-member judging panel based on five criteria related to technological capability and industry impact.
Challenge Award Results
First place: Datagrid An agentic AI-driven technology designed for task execution, such as reviewing daily reports and generating purchase orders, while integrating data across more than 100 systems.
Second place: KOPE AI A generative design platform that optimizes prefabrication and modular construction workflows to reduce cost and material waste.
Third place: Now Vision An AI-powered visual inspection system that automates defect detection and monitors construction progress using site imagery.
Two additional awards recognized specialized advancements.
NavLive received HP's AI Development Excellence Award powered by NVIDIA for a real-time spatial intelligence solution that produces 2D and 3D models directly from handheld scanning hardware.
The "Scaled Thought" Award, sponsored by Amazon Web Services (AWS), was jointly awarded to TestFit and Join for their combined workflow enabling rapid, cloud-based land-use feasibility and cost analysis.
Several finalist integrations are now live on the Trimble Marketplace, an online catalogue featuring more than 150 pre-built and validated software extensions designed to support connected data workflows.
