AI accelerates concept design, code analysis, and visualisation, giving architects intelligent layouts, insights, and inspiration tools
Snaptrude has announced that the next major release of its collaborative building design platform will bring AI directly into the early stages of design.
With Snaptrude’s ‘AI stack’ users can simply describe a building type, the site, and the intended use, while the software automatically generates a layout with the right spaces, providing an ‘intelligent starting point’ for manual design.
Snaptrude also includes a new built-in AI research capability, designed to help architects save hours by not having to dig through codes, guidelines, and precedent studies before they can start shaping a design. Snaptrude’s AI can analyse building codes and ADA requirements, benchmark space standards and costs.
Meanwhile Snaptrude has enhanced its ‘AI-powered inspiration tools’ – in other words, its AI renderers. Users now have a wider choice of AI models, including Nano-Banana for ‘super-fast image generation for quick iterations’ and Veo 3 for ‘smooth & realistic’ video generation.
