About Us
We're a team of applied researchers, engineers, and technologists building the next generation of tools for architects and engineers - for the people who design and build the physical world. Our customers use Cogram to run projects ranging from housing, hospitals, bridges, airports, to skyscrapers, datacenters, factories, and so much more.
Completing such complex projects on time and budget is a difficult problem, so architecture and engineering firms use a host of software tools to coordinate and keep track of work. Most of those tools were built decades ago and haven't changed much since. They're often expensive, hard to use, and treat AI as a checkbox or a future promise. We’ve set out to fix that, and leading architecture and engineering firms around the world use Cogram’s AI systems to help manage their projects. When we make new tools, we usually start by asking: what if we redesigned the existing tools from scratch, for the AI era? What should these tools look like if we build them today, knowing what AI can do?
We're also working on AI systems that help with the design process. Current AI is very capable with language and code, but less strong at reasoning about geometry, space, constraints, and complex 3D objects. AI has to understand thousands of interdependent objects and physical and regulatory constraints, reason across multiple representations, and produce something another engineer can modify. As this gap closes, computer-aided design will become agentic. The implications are profound, since almost everything in the physical world passes through architects or engineers before it is built.
Cogram was founded in 2021 by researchers in physics and machine learning from Oxford. We’ve partnered with some of the world’s leading venture investors, including Initialized, Y Combinator, and Elad Gil.
