Arcol launches collaborative and web-based building design platform

New design experience replaces outdated workflows and brings teams, processes, and data together in real-time.

Arcol introduced its collaborative building design platform aimed at improving how architects, engineers, and construction (AEC) teams work together. The platform offers real-time collaboration, intuitive modeling, and integrated data management in a web-based environment, helping teams reduce reliance on multiple disconnected tools and simplify the design process.

Arcol reflects the inherently collaborative nature of the AEC industry and lets teams unlock their creative freedom by eliminating disruptions from disconnected files and emails. Teams in Arcol:

• Collaborate and build simultaneously: Flow with colleagues in real-time and invite instant feedback with multiplayer access and commenting.
• Simplify the boldest designs: Easily create lofted, angled or even twisted buildings, detailed floor plans, and comprehensive site developments with geometric tools that simplify complex design tasks.
• Make confident, data-driven decisions: Ditch spreadsheets and manual calculations for automatic, real-time metrics.
• Create early alignment for long-term success: Use the industry’s most intuitive boards to share design views, data, and documentation in a single space and deliver design clarity from the start.

The Arcol experience embeds data context into every interaction to simplify communication, and its industry-leading boards feature is an apt example. Whether shaping a concept or gathering feedback, teams can drag and drop designs, data, and documentation into a shared visual workspace and keep collaborators aligned as projects take shape.

With the launch of its new platform, Arcol offers an alternative to traditional BIM tools. Currently, it provides a solid concept design experience and plans to expand into areas such as schematic design and construction documentation. The company aims to make building design more collaborative and adaptable.

Arcol’s platform is now available.
