Draw buildings, roads and carparks, landscape and trees, or anything you like with a few clicks

Annotate your drawings for clarity. Add labels, markers, or custom annotations to your project. Then, save layer combinations and camera positions using the View tool.
Comparing the areas, shadowing and footprint of different scenarios is a key part of design. Giraffe supports design options with drawing layers.
Work at the speed of conversation. Invite your whole team to collaborate and design in real-time. Once two or more participants enter a project simultaneously, the Live Cursor controls appear in the top bar, and on the map.

Control your design’s performance with property values. Without properties, the geometry in Giraffe is just shapes. Use properties to control everything from giving all the residential buildings the same build cost to making all annotations blue. Properties add data about the objects that can be leveraged in analytics.
Analytics runs off geometric properties of map features you created whilst , like area, width and length, height, and volume; combined with additional metadata from the and where you identified certain global assumptions for your project. In many ways, analytics mimics the spreadsheet software you are used to. The information is in a database of columns, rows, and cells.

Every vector layer in Giraffe can be dynamically styled + filtered using a Lens. Style, Filter, and interrogate vector data like you would in any GIS platform.

Use an agile software standard, the Kanban board, to take your development pipeline to the next level.

Ensure the right people have the right information at the right time. Take control of your account governance. Manage the users in your account, what they can do, and what data they have access to.
1 minute
Add transforms that change the shape of the element you have selected. The original element becomes a reference for the transform to edit and adjust.

If you'd like to go deeper you can create add multiple transforms to a flow. These flows can be saved and reused. Create generative algorithms without writing a single line of code. The flow builder in Giraffe uses dendrogram assumptions to create an intuitive interface to create complex algorithms. Transforms branch from the initiating geometry. And branch again. One shape becomes many. And the designer can visually track the inputs and outputs in an intuitive node-based editor.
