Problem
Design teams often spend excessive time sourcing, managing, and updating reusable architectural components across multiple projects, leading to inconsistencies and delayed delivery.
Solution
Architectchips offers a cloud‑based library of parametric building components that can be accessed directly within major CAD and BIM platforms. Users browse a curated catalog, customize dimensions and performance parameters, and instantly insert the components into their models. All changes are version‑controlled and synced across the team, ensuring consistency and reducing rework. The platform also provides API access for automated component generation and integration with existing design workflows. By centralizing component management, Architectchips streamlines the design process and accelerates project timelines.
Target Audience
Primary customers are architectural firms, engineering consultancies, and construction companies that rely on BIM workflows and need a shared component repository.
