THE ARCHITECT OWNERSHIP INITIATIVE

Built for architects.
Backed by architects.

What if the professionals helping move architecture forward could also share in the future of the company building their tools?

We're exploring an equity participation pathway for the AEC community as part of OpenArcade's future financing strategy.

openArcade / THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT01—04
Axonometric spatial model of a professional workplace created in an architectural design workflow
One model. A more connected way to deliver.
A DIFFERENT KIND OF ALIGNMENT

The future of architecture shouldn't be shaped without the people who deliver it.

01 / WHY ARCHITECT OWNERSHIP

Designed around the profession.
Built with its perspective.

01

The people doing the work know what needs to change.

Architects live with disconnected briefs, repeated drafting, scattered project files and time lost between handoffs. We believe the professionals closest to those problems should help shape the solution.

02

One platform can make delivery repeatable.

OpenArcade aims to connect enterprise requirements, spatial models, test fits and drawing workflows so professional teams spend less time rebuilding information across each project.

03

An ownership pathway could align the future.

We're exploring a way for architects and AEC professionals to invest in and help shape the company behind the tools they use.

02 / WHAT ALREADY EXISTS

Not just an idea.
A foundation to build on.

OpenArcade builds on Arcalogix's existing submission, spatial AI and test-fit authoring workflows. A model-driven documentation prototype demonstrates the direction of the next production layer.

THE PROPOSED COMMERCIAL MODEL

Real projects.
Shared incentives.

Our project model connects enterprise demand with the professionals delivering the work. The aim is a sustainable platform that supports both practitioners and customers.

60%Proposed allocation to participating project professionals, collectively
40%Proposed platform fee retained by OpenArcade before operating costs

Proposed project-fee allocation, not an equity ownership split.

03 / WHY FUND THE PLATFORM

Capital for the work
that makes delivery better.

The funding goal is straightforward: turn our existing software foundation into a tested, repeatable way for architects to deliver work—and bring that capability to more projects.
