All3 Germany adds to its construction delivery expertise with Olav Schnepf appointment. We’re happy to welcome Olav Schnepf as All3’s Director of Project & Construction Management. Olav brings more than 30 years of delivery experience across some of Germany’s most demanding projects. His career includes 26 years at HOCHTIEF, the country’s largest turnkey construction company, where he managed major office, hotel, embassy, university, shopping centre and multi-family residential developments. He is widely recognised as a hands-on, technically rigorous project leader with deep expertise in navigating Germany’s complex regulatory, compliance and urban-development challenges - exactly the experience required to scale a new model of construction across the German market. Olav has long argued that construction needs a step-change in innovation, not another incremental improvement. As he puts it: “For years I’ve said that our industry needs real innovation to solve our productivity challenges - not a new tool, but an entirely new logic. And All3 is the game changer that construction has been waiting for.” At All3, Olav will lead the construction delivery process - ensuring our AI-powered design and robotic production flow seamlessly into compliant, on-time, on-budget construction. He will also guide developer engagement, translating our new model into certainty, clarity and confidence for clients. We’re proud to welcome him to the team and look forward to his leadership as we introduce a new way of building to Germany. #All3 #Germany #ConstructionTech #Robotics

Europe’s housing gap is 9.6 million homes - and growing. Across the continent, countries are missing housing targets by hundreds of thousands of units annually. Developers can’t make projects economically viable. The labour required to build is becoming scarcer and more expensive. Cities are struggling to keep up with growing demand. So how do we close a gap of this scale? There are only three options: 1. Lower building standards: We could make construction cheaper by relaxing regulations and accepting lower-quality buildings. But Europe has tried that before - in the 1950s and 60s - and the legacy is still visible today. Poor quality is not a solution. 2. Subsidise the system: Governments could make development more viable by cutting VAT or introducing new incentives. But that only masks the underlying problem and it becomes a dependency - one that disappears with the next political cycle, pushing the sector back into crisis. 3. Innovate and transform the production model: The only sustainable path is the one every other major industry has already taken: automation, integration, and technology-driven efficiency that brings costs down permanently. This is where All3 comes in. Our technology-led approach - combining AI-powered design, robotic production, plug-and-play assembly - delivers buildings 50% faster and up to 30% cheaper than any other method, unlocking the capacity needed to close the housing gap. And because our model is fully integrated, with minimal external dependencies, it continues to evolve alongside surrounding technologies - ensuring construction doesn’t fall decades behind the rest of the economy again. So Europe doesn’t just need to build more. It needs to build differently. And that’s exactly what we’re doing at All3. #All3 #Mantis #Housing #ConstructionTech #Robotics

Solving construction’s broken model. In most industries, innovation succeeds by focusing on a single point in the value chain. One layer. One process. One task. But construction doesn’t work like that. Construction is project-based and fragmented. Every site is a prototype. Every project starts from scratch - with a new team, a new contract, and a new set of incentives. And once it’s built, that team disbands, never to work together again. That makes innovation almost impossible to scale. If one subcontractor brings a new method or technology, the rest of the team has to invest time and effort to adapt - without any guarantee of future benefit. They won’t see the upside, and they won’t be on the next job. And even if the project yields valuable learnings, they’re lost - because the next site starts with a different team and a blank slate. That’s why isolated innovations - however brilliant they are - always struggle to integrate, never mind scale beyond the pilot project. Because when each participant controls only one part of the process, no one is positioned to drive end-to-end change. This is why construction’s already low productivity continues to fall further behind. While other sectors innovate, automate, and grow, construction stays reliant on scarce manual labour and stagnates. So how do we bring innovation to construction? At All3, we solve the problem by operating across the entire value chain - from AI-powered design to robotic prefabrication and autonomous plug-and-play assembly. One integrated model. No external contractors. No handoffs. No misaligned incentives. Yes, it’s complex. But in the AI-era economy, complexity isn’t a flaw. It’s the new normal. Just as electricity once condensed a whole café’s worth of manual processes into a single machine that sits in most kitchens, AI will do the same - compressing previously fragmented industries into unified platforms. In this new era, complexity will no longer be seen as a weakness. It will be the defining advantage of the market leader. And in construction, it’s what unlocks the innovation we need to boost productivity and finally build more with less. #All3 #AI #Robotics #ConstructionTech

The age of the megafactory producing identikit modular buildings is over. But the market that it fails to serve - urban, complex, constrained housing - is only growing. What comes next isn’t a bigger, better factory. It’s a completely different model of production for the construction sector. At All3, we call it the cellular factory - a high-efficiency production facility, designed to deliver industrial-scale manufacturing of custom components, at the speed, and flexibility that 21st century cities need. Instead of relying on a single fixed production line, our approach to production is based on modular robotic cells. Each cell performs a specific function - milling, drilling, mounting - but unlike traditional automation, they’re not locked into that one role. They're software-controlled and reprogrammable on the fly, so the same hardware can be reconfigured instantly to do an entirely different task. It’s like how a microprocessor works in your phone or laptop: one chip, running thousands of different applications - not by changing the hardware, but by changing the software. That means we can produce slabs, beams, or façades using the same robotic cells - without the need for manual reconfiguring. And as demand grows, we scale by adding more cells, not by building entirely new factories. No need for a €350M megafactory. No need for a five-year rollout. Just €25M and six months to go live - with 90% of operations automated from day one. Built to adapt. Ready to scale. It’s this approach that allows All3 to reduce build costs by up to 30% and cut project timelines in half. This isn’t ‘prefab’. It’s an entirely new model for construction production - designed for how cities are actually built. #All3 #Ai #Robotics #ConstructionTech

The age of the megafactory is over. Across industries, centralised production is giving way to distributed models - faster, smarter, and more responsive to demand. Electricity is shifting from national grids to local generation and battery storage. Media has evolved from mass broadcasting to personalised streams. Even food delivery has moved from large supermarkets to local dark stores delivering items on demand. But construction hasn’t caught up. Most so-called “modern” prefab still relies on megafactories: vast, capital-heavy facilities designed to produce a single product, or a narrow range, at volume. These factories are built around the assumption that efficiency comes from repetition. It’s the same logic that works in cars, electronics, and furniture - where millions of identical units are built on the same platform. But buildings aren’t like that. Every project has different constraints. Every site is specific. Yet prefab factories are designed to produce sameness, not respond to variation. Change the building, and you have to change the factory. Or more often, you just don’t build the building at all. That’s why prefab housing so often looks the same. Why these systems can only serve greenfield sites. And why urban projects, with constrained plots, local regulations, and complex briefs, are left untouched. The megafactory works for standardisation. But cities aren’t standard. Today, the greatest need is for housing that fits into the existing urban fabric. That means tighter sites, irregular shapes, and complex compliance issues - not mass repetition. Modular prefab can’t cope with the real demands of 21st century cities. And the systems built to scale it have become the very thing that holds it back. The age of the megafactory is over. Next week we’ll show you what replaces it. #All3 #AI #Robotics #ConstructionTech

It’s Time for Construction to Change: All3 at the BFW InnovationsForum Nord Last week in Hamburg, All3 Germany CEO, Wulf von Borzyskowski, was invited to speak at BFW InnovationsForum Nord. His talk, “From Manual Labour to High‑Tech: AI and Robotics as the Solution for the Future of Housing”, focused on one clear truth: the current model of building is broken, and the time for change is now. “We’re not just automating a task - we’ve reengineered the entire value chain. While most innovation in construction targets isolated pain points, we’ve rebuilt the full process end-to-end - allowing All3 to deliver everything, from design to turnkey delivery with no external contractors.” Wulf explained how All3’s fully integrated model - combining AI-driven design, robotic production, and on-site automation - tackles the real barriers to housing delivery: low productivity, slow timelines, high costs, and a lack of responsiveness to what the market needs. And the impact is measurable: projects delivered 50% faster, costs reduced by up to 30%, and CO₂ emissions cut by 25%. Wulf’s message was clear: the current system can’t keep up. Housing supply will continue to be constrained and only full scale innovation can solve the problem. All3’s invitation to present at the BFW Nord event is a sign that the industry is finally ready. Ready to acknowledge that the old model isn’t working. Ready to explore innovative new approaches. Ready for change now, not later. We’re happy to be leading that change at All3. Let’s build. Together. #All3 #Mantis #AI #Robotics #ConstructionTech

Why are so many young Europeans still living with their parents? Across the EU, 42% of 25–29 year-olds still live at home. It’s a sign that the market isn’t delivering what young adults actually need. Even if we could build more affordably to keep prices down - and let’s be clear, we can - developers still wouldn’t be supplying the right kinds of homes, tailored for the lifestyles of young adults. Why not? Because housing takes years to deliver, developers are incentivised to design for the broadest possible market. After all, why focus on tailoring a product for a specific market niche if demand can change in months but you can only respond in years? This lack of ability to adapt to what the market needs means generic layouts, mass-market compromises, and one-size-fits-all pricing. The only way to change that, is to build faster. Faster delivery means greater responsiveness to demand signals, giving developers the flexibility to build homes that reflect young people’s lives and budgets. What that could look like: – Compact studios with shared amenities – Co-living models near transit hubs – Entry-level homes with smaller footprints and smarter layouts And if we can do it for young people, we can do it for retirees, multi-generational families, and all of the other groups with specific requirements that are being underserved by today’s slow, inflexible housing market. At All3, we solve the responsiveness problem at its root, by redesigning how housing gets built. Our fully integrated AI and robotics-powered model reduces costs by up to 30%, and compresses project timelines by 50%. It’s this speed of delivery that makes it viable to create more diverse housing options, designed specifically for evolving market segments. Because solving the housing crisis isn’t just about building more. It’s about building what people actually need. #All3 #Mantis #AI #Robotics #ConstructionTech

Why are developers going out of business faster than any other sector? Across Europe, city skylines tell the same story. Construction sites frozen mid-build. Hoardings up. Weeds pushing through concrete. Homes required to meet urgent housing demand, abandoned indefinitely. It's a clear sign that the economics of building no longer work. Here’s what the data shows: > In Germany, construction saw more insolvencies than any other sector in 2024, with 3,696 company failures. > In England and Wales it's the same story - with over 4,000 insolvencies of construction companies in the last year, and more than 100,000 in 'significant financial distress' - the highest of any sector. > In London alone, 1 in 6 new-build housing projects has stalled, pulling over 5,000 homes out of the supply pipeline. Developers can’t make the numbers work because construction costs have soared, financing is tighter, risk has multiplied and regulatory complexity has ballooned. In the past, rising sale prices masked these problems. Now they don’t. And the result is abandoned sites, broken businesses, unmet need - in London, Berlin, and everywhere in between. It’s time to stop blaming external factors and start changing how we deliver housing. At All3, we’re building that new model: faster, more resilient, and specifically designed to make housing development a predictable and profitable business again. By integrating AI-powered design, robotic production, and autonomous on-site assembly, we’ve re-engineered the entire construction process end-to-end. Our approach cuts build costs by up to 30% and compresses timelines at every stage, resulting in housing projects that move from concept to completion in half the time - allowing developers to build faster and more responsively. It’s a new model for construction, designed to unlock viable housing projects at the speed and scale that 21st-century cities demand.
