The old way of finding materials is broken
Hours disappear into manufacturer microsites. Each one has a different search, a different taxonomy, and a different way of presenting the same product. There is no central index, and the rare ones that exist are either out of date or behind a sales gate.
Physical sample libraries are no easier. Drawers fill up with discontinued lines, swatches fade, and projects get specified from whatever happens to be on the shelf rather than what is right for the brief.
And before any of that, you need to see how the material reads in context. Most catalogues stop at a flat swatch — leaving the visualisation to be hand-built later, when there is no time to iterate.
How AI is transforming the way architects specify materials
Intelligent search
Find materials by aesthetic, performance spec, or sustainability rating with natural language search — no manufacturer hopping required.
Visual matching
Upload a reference image and surface materials that match the texture, tone, and finish you have in mind.
Specification-ready
Every material links directly to full spec sheets, SDS documents, and BIM objects for clean handoff to documentation.

“What used to take a week of phone calls and PDF hunting now takes an afternoon. The samples land on my desk before the design review.”
“Filtering by EPD and recycled content in a single search has changed how we approach LEED submissions. The documentation is right there.”
“The catalog depth is the differentiator. I can specify a niche acoustic baffle and a stone slab in the same workflow.”
