Arcol

What is Arcol?

Arcol is an authoring platform for designing buildings with construction intelligence built in. It connects massing, floorplans, metrics, estimating and documentation in one shared environment, and AI agents collaborate with the team.

Key capabilities of Arcol

• Unified building model: Massing, floorplans and documentation together
• Construction intelligence: Preconstruction data embedded in each design action
• Option comparison: Compare designs against real data and constraints
• Estimating and metrics: Live metrics and reporting as the design changes
• AI agents: Agents collaborate with teams and automate tasks
• Real-time collaboration: Teams and clients see updates simultaneously

How Arcol works

Designers sketch massing and floorplans in the browser, and the model updates metrics, estimates and reports as they work. AI agents handle tasks such as decks and counts, and all disciplines work from the same unified model.

Who uses Arcol?

Architects, designers, developers, general contractors and owners working on early-stage design and feasibility.
