Kaizen AI enters UAE to transform real estate with AI-driven planning, unlocking 10%+ profits without design changes.
Dubai: Kaizen AI, an emerging force in AI real estate innovation, is entering the UAE and wider GCC market with its proprietary optimisation platform, offering property developers a potential profit boost of over 10%—without altering original architectural designs. With real estate projects worth US$590 billion underway in the UAE alone, this move comes at a pivotal time for the region’s rapidly evolving property sector.
Headquartered in India, Kaizen AI has already optimised more than 150 projects across seven countries, adding US$5.4 billion in value. Now, the company is poised to replicate this success across Dubai, Ras Al Khaimah, Muscat, and Riyadh. Its advanced platform enables developers and architects to enhance space efficiency, reduce costs, and shrink carbon footprints—using AI to analyse a multitude of design parameters such as built-up area, efficiency ratios, and sustainability metrics.
With the global real estate market projected to reach US$654.39 trillion by 2025, Kaizen AI’s entry into the region signals a new era of smarter, greener planning. The company’s platform has helped clients save 712 million metric tonnes of CO₂ and reduce over 5.67 million sq. ft. of unnecessary constructed area.
Jay Shah, Kaizen AI’s founder and CEO, combines his AI research from Columbia University with over a decade of architectural experience. “We’re here to empower—not replace—architects and developers,” Shah states. “Our AI scenarios support creative intent while enhancing financial and environmental outcomes.”
Unlike most AI startups, Kaizen AI operates on a performance-based model—charging a fee only as a percentage of the value it creates. This practical, outcome-focused approach has won the trust of eight of India’s top 10 developers and is quickly gaining traction among international firms.
Kaizen AI’s platform stands out by delivering measurable ROI early in the design phase—before construction begins—giving stakeholders the tools to build not only more profitably but also more responsibly.
As the UAE embraces smart city development and innovation-led infrastructure, Kaizen AI’s solutions align with the region’s sustainability goals and urban ambitions. With proven success and a compelling value proposition, Kaizen AI is set to quietly become a transformative force in GCC real estate.
