AI for the Built World

Armeta builds AI systems for construction and heavy industries, helping projects move faster from planning to execution.

[Sanzhar Rakhmetzhanov @sanrakhmet]

The Government of Kazakhstan has selected @armetaai as an AI partner to help transform the country’s construction industry.

I co-founded @armetaai with my son @tennirlan and our CTO @nuralybb

After 9 months of building and pilots, our AI can now review up to 150 construction projects a day - and the first module is already live nationwide.

We’re just getting started.

Our ambition: build the AI infrastructure for construction - and one of the world’s most advanced sovereign AI systems for the built world.

I just received my O-1 talent visa in the US! This is becoming a bit of a family tradition, as both my brother, @arlanr, and my father, @sanrakhmet, have also obtained O-1 visas. Can we officially call ourselves a "startup family" now?😅

[Sanzhar Rakhmetzhanov @sanrakhmet]

At this exact table, @elonmusk made the deal to buy Twitter.

Not hinting at anything 😅

Just had a wonderful day with our partners - the founders of ZaiNar, a unicorn company building foundational technology for Physical AI.

Incredible founders. Incredible technology. And a company that will reshape many industries.

The future of AI is not only digital. It is physical.

Armeta just won 1st place at the Unicorn Battle in Palo Alto! Right after the pitch, I received notification that we also achieved SOC 2 compliance.

In the 3 months since launching our product, we've also taken 1st place at CERAWeek and scaled to $1.2M ARR.

@tennirlan 🏆🔥

[Temirlan Rakhmetzhanov @tennirlan]

3 month after launching we hit $1.2M ARR. Feeling hyped ahead of our Demo Day at Alchemist Accelerator on May 26🙌

[Sanzhar Rakhmetzhanov @sanrakhmet]

AI can write code. Pass the bar. Diagnose disease.

It still can't read the engineering drawings that keep every refinery, factory, and power plant running.

That's the gap we're closing @armetaai

[Sanzhar Rakhmetzhanov @sanrakhmet]

Today, we won 1st place at the Energy Venture Day & Pitch Competition during CERAWeek by S&P Global.

We were honored to be recognized as the best startup in the Industrial Efficiency & Decarbonization track.
This is a meaningful moment for our team!

We are building @armetaai to bring AI into one of the world’s most complex industries - Energy & Chemicals - and it’s exciting to see that vision resonate on such an important stage.

[Sanzhar Rakhmetzhanov @sanrakhmet]

A large U.S. oil & gas engineering company just sent @armetaai a partnership proposal.
Not to buy software.
To explore building an AI-native engineering services model together.
That’s when you know industrial AI is getting real.
Will the winners be SaaS tools - or AI-native services companies?

[Armeta @armetaai]

@sanrakhmet Armeta is here😎

[Sanzhar Rakhmetzhanov @sanrakhmet]

@armetaai is launching the P&ID Intelligence Platform for Oil & Gas and Chemical Companies.

[Armeta @armetaai]

Launching! For Oil & Gas and Chemical Companies.

[Armeta @armetaai]

@sanrakhmet Armeta Demo

[Sanzhar Rakhmetzhanov @sanrakhmet]

The US operates 135 refineries and 14,000 chemical plants.
The master engineering document behind them - the P&ID - has been trapped in PDFs.
We just changed that.
Today we’re launching the @armetaai P&ID Intelligence Platform.
Not selling software right now - looking for pilot partners in oil&gas and chemicals.
Let’s talk.

@tennirlan @TechnipEnergies @CERAWeek 🔥

[Temirlan Rakhmetzhanov @tennirlan]

Arrived in Houston to present Armeta to @TechnipEnergies

Btw we’ve been selected to pitch at @CERAWeek Mar 23-27.

@arlanr is absolutely cracked.

[Sanzhar Rakhmetzhanov @sanrakhmet]

This is the team behind @armetaai
Domain experts, engineers, and AI builders working on a hard problem most people ignore: engineering knowledge trapped in PDFs.
We’re building domain-first AI for the built world.
Starting with Armeta MTO - automating material take-offs from complex P&IDs, cutting days of manual work down to hours and reducing costly procurement errors.
Not a generic AI wrapper.
Built around real drawings, specs, and workflows.
Proud of this team.
Just getting started.
