In 2-3 days, we are pushing a change to the flow of the product to start on a project and orient more heavily towards designing with a purpose. That page will still exist, but as a…

That's definitely a good use case. Our goal is to make it as easy as possible to design a home. We aren't trying to replace an architect. It'll allow people who couldn't do it befo…

Completely agree with this. Most cities in the US are not that strict. Those cities are where building actually happen. Not in LA, Bay Area, etc, etc. Majority of homes being const…

You are literally building your own house? that's cool! I started and ran a tech-enabled pre-construction service for ~6 years and grew up in a homebuilding family. Codes, structur…

Right now we are focused on single-family ground-up design. There are people using it for ADUs, but it's not trained to do that well. We plan to make the model better for ADU's aft…
