What we'll cover
90-Minute Feasibility
Map, model and analyse sites from scratch. Connect trusted data layers including zoning, planning controls and environmental overlays. Link design changes directly to financial outcomes in real time.
Pipeline and Site Selection
Score and rank sites using spatial data and custom criteria. Track your pipeline on a single map. Apply zoning, flood, heritage and infrastructure constraints in real time to narrow your shortlist fast.
Yield Studies and Test Fits
Draw and test layouts with live analytics feedback. Model GFA, NSA, height, setbacks and building typologies. Compare yield outcomes across options and export to your feasibility models.
Design Scenarios
Import CAD, PDF, images and survey data. Run side-by-side design comparisons for compliance and yield. Export to Excel, Argus, Revit and other tools your team already uses.
AI and Automation
Build and connect apps to trusted data sources. Automate schedules, reports and investment committee packs. Integrate LLMs for prompt-based site analysis and scenario generation.
