Pre-alpha · Working prototype

Make
architecture
fun again.

More room for the what if.

We’re building a workspace where architects and AI agents turn a brief into editable models, plans and alternatives. Explore different answers. Keep your taste in the loop.

Rhino first. A bigger playground ahead.

Your taste. More possibilities.

A brief is a starting point.
There is rarely just one answer.

Design changes as you discover it. Arcayo brings AI, reusable BIM tools and computational design into the same conversation, so exploring the next idea feels less like starting over.

Keep the judgement, curiosity and art. Give the repetitive work to tools that remember how to do it.

From the working prototype

From an idea
to an editable model.

Real models. Real plans. Real work in progress.
These are captures from Arcayo itself.

A few ways to work

A raised pavilion, built from editable assemblies. A Farnsworth-inspired study; still unfinished.

The pavilion is an unfinished study inspired by Mies van der Rohe’s Farnsworth House, not an approved replica. The options sequence is a separate cabin brief; candidate testing is incomplete.

Intelligence that stays useful

Build the idea.
Keep the knowledge.

01 / Explore

One brief.
Different answers.

Generative plugins explore alternatives. Keep their history, compare what changes and develop the direction that feels right.

02 / Reuse

Less repeat.
More repertoire.

Retain building intelligence in reusable BIM tools, assemblies and relationships. Reuse work when its inputs still match.

03 / Evaluate

Test the measurable.
Design the meaningful.

Repeatable checks make findings visible. Rust powers parts of the computation. Human judgement decides what is worth pursuing.

Rhino is the first adapter

The workspace
we’re building.

Start with a focused workflow. Grow into a shared, web-based place for people and agents to design together.

In current development

Models, plans and reusable tools

Generative alternatives, in-app plan editing, deterministic checks, agent access through MCP and experimental IFC exchange. Each workflow and file format still needs its own testing.

The direction ahead

A shared architectural playground

Full multiplayer, broader independent editing, broad model exchange and AI-generated tools during a design task. Exploring thousands of options is an ambition we are working to prove.

Small team. AI on tap. Building in public.

Come for
the what if.

We’re at pre-alpha: building and testing the core workflows. Next, we’re planning a small, invite-only alpha with individual users and small firms. Join the early list to follow the build or express interest in testing with us.

Initial previews will focus on concept exploration with sample projects and an agreed workflow. Outputs are drafts for review, not for construction, fabrication, statutory submissions or certification. We’ll agree features, formats and access before any pilot or payment.

Early supporters will be first to hear about pilot places and any founding-user pricing. We’ll share the details as the product takes shape.
