Motif Design

Browser-native, agent-powered BIM design platform.

About

Motif Design is a browser-based building information modeling platform built around AI agents rather than a copilot panel: agents help with iteration, drawing, inserting finishes and products, and coordinating 2D and 3D views in a shared cloud model.

It was founded in 2023 by former Autodesk leaders Amar Hanspal and Brian Mathews with Revit founding-team members, and has raised $46M from Redpoint Ventures and CapitalG. Skidmore Owings & Merrill has tested it and contributed to its development.

Limitation: pricing is not published, it is still early (Motif Design launched in 2026), and firms with deep Revit workflows will face a real migration cost regardless of how good the browser experience is.

What it can do

  • Browser-native 3D modeling
  • AI agent-assisted design iteration
  • Coordinated 2D and 3D views
  • Real-time multi-user collaboration
  • Automated documentation

Setup

  1. Request access at motif.io
  2. Start a project in the browser-based design space
  3. Use AI agents to iterate on design and documentation
  4. Invite stakeholders to collaborate in real time

Prerequisites

An AEC design workflow; a modern browser and internet connection.
