Archilyse, founded in 2017, is a PropTech start-up that offers holistic numeric architecture analysis as an easy to use Software-as-a-Service solution. By doing so, Archilyse provides information necessary for optimising a multitude of processes in every step of the real estate lifecycle. To produce knowledge based on data Archilyse uses four generic power-simulations, such as view, geometrical, connectivity and physical analysis, from which countless others can be derived. Their results provide the most comprehensive view on architecture currently available worldwide. This is how it works: 2D floor plans in the form of PDFs or building image files are converted to 3D BIM-Light models and geo-referenced. Using API (Application Program Interface) calls, professional users can analyse building models drawn from algorithms which translated the latest scientific findings into formulas. The results are presented to users in easy-to-read heatmaps or can be exported in the form of key figure tables for further processing. This process renders portfolio digitalisation profitable for the first time. Archilyse uses the underutilized potential of digitization in the real estate industry and thus eliminates the prevailing information imbalance between real estate professionals and layman, thereby enabling the maximization of benefits for all stakeholders in real estate.
