Finch — AI for how the world builds

Overview

Finch is an AI-powered planning and design platform that helps architects and project teams move from feasibility studies to coordinated BIM delivery with greater speed and consistency. By combining project requirements, institutional design knowledge, and automation, Finch enables users to generate, evaluate, and refine building designs while supporting compliance with firm standards, accessibility requirements, and local regulations.

Integrated with Graphisoft solutions such as Archicad, Finch extends the BIM workflow upstream by connecting early-stage planning with detailed BIM delivery.

Key Capabilities

• Capture and reuse design knowledge through a centralized Plan Library containing proven layouts, design standards, accessibility requirements, and local regulations.
• Accelerate design exploration by generating and comparing multiple building and floor plan alternatives based on project-specific requirements.
• Automate repetitive design tasks using AI-assisted workflows for layout refinement, rule-based coordination, and design validation.
• Maintain BIM continuity by transferring generated designs between Finch and Archicad as native BIM geometry, reducing manual remodeling and preserving project data.

Who it's for?

Finch is designed for architects, developers, contractors, and other AEC professionals involved in feasibility studies, early-stage planning, and BIM-based project delivery.

Typical workflows

Typical workflows begin with importing a project from Archicad into Finch for feasibility analysis, project setup, and floor plan generation. After design alternatives have been evaluated and refined, the selected solution can be exported back to Archicad as native BIM geometry for documentation and continued project development. Finch supports residential, mixed-use, office, hospitality, and urban development projects.
