COMPLEX & ARCHAIC
Real Estate Development is time-consuming,
costly, and risky…
Most of the value in a real estate development project is
created before land is even acquired.
But, in order to compete to acquire a new development
opportunity, team members must be pulled from current
projects for weeks or months.
On top of that, architects charge substantial fees for multiple
iterations of designs necessary to understand the feasibility
and viability of a new opportunity.
In the end, if a competing developer wins the project, all that
time and money were for nothing.

USING PARAFIN
Minutes, not months using cloud
computing power…
Using proprietary Generative Design algorithms
on powerful cloud computers, Parafin generates
millions of possible design configurations for a
site in seconds. Each design is tied to a budget
and investment model, enabling a developer to
instantly identify the best performing building
designs.

Using Parafin, a lean real estate development

team will quickly understand what can be built on
a site and how much money it makes. The
speed of Parafin gives a developer a tremendous
unfair competitive advantage building a
pipeline of high-performing development
projects.

Appendix

Generative design is the automated algorithmic interaction of goals

and constraints to reveal optimized design solutions.

Using cloud computing and a proprietary generative design technique, PARAFIN quickly
cycles through millions of generated designs, testing configurations and learning from
previous iterations. The process generates options far beyond what a single human designer
could conceive through intuition to arrive at the design that best achieves the goals of the
user.

The worlds greatest real estate developers succeed by maximizing value creation on a piece
of land. For any site, Parafin generates millions of building configurations each tied to a
budget and financial model to solve for optimal value creation and viability of a development
opportunity.
