Revolutionising the way we find and develop property

Our mission is to accelerate global building supply by empowering cities and professionals with intelligent, open, and automated tools for design, compliance, and permitting.

Our journey

Founded by Dr. Benjamin Coorey in 2010, Archistar originally began life as aneducation portal where he passed on his expertise in architecture & generativedesign to AEC students and design firms. Known as the Archistar Academy, thise-learning platform is now used at top universities and firms all around the world.

What started as a university research project evolved into a groundbreaking platform: one that could read planning rules, run feasibility tests, and generate thousands of compliant designs in minutes. The industry took notice. Architects used it to speed up early-stage design. Developers used it to unlock new opportunities. Governments saw the potential to transform how cities were shaped. But we didnt stop there.

The missing link:  Instant approval

As we worked with more cities, states, and global clients, we discovered a deeper need—not just to generate buildings, but to get them approved faster and more reliably.

This led to the creation of eCheck, a new open standard that ties building designs to the rules they must follow. With eCheck, every line in a design can be automatically checked against planning and building codes. What once took weeks of back-and-forth can now happen in seconds.

We’re now building an open ecosystem—uniting generative design, site intelligence, and digital permitting into a seamless, automated workflow. Our tools plug into the design software people already use, and our SDKs and APIs open the door to integrations at scale.

The vision forward

Today, Archistar powers digital planning for over 30 cities and governments across Australia, Canada and the Unites State to enable the next generation of digital cities. We operate out of offices across Los Angeles, Vancouver and Sydney to support the largest municipalities in the worlds including LA County, the City of Los Angeles, the City of Austin and the City of New York.

Our journey has taken us from academic research to global pilot programs, from AI-powered design to smart compliance infrastructure. At every step, the goal remains the same:

To make it possible for anyone to find the perfect site, design the best building, and get it approved—instantly and automatically.

Careers

A Global Challenge, A Shared Future

By 2050, our world’s population is expected to grow to 10 billion people, and to keep pace in supporting them, the global construction industry needs to build 13,000 buildings a day.

Archistar is committed to creating technology, hand-in-hand with the industry to tackle the global growing challenge of addressing housing supply, affordability and equity.

Our mission

To accelerate global building supply by empowering cities and professionals with intelligent, open, and automated tools for design, compliance, and permitting.

We enable faster, smarter, and more transparent development through a new digital standard that unites planning, design, and code assessment in one seamless ecosystem

Our vision

To make it possible for anyone to find the perfect site, design the best building, and get it approved—instantly and automatically.

We’re building a world where site research, smart design, and compliance checks happen together in one seamless, intelligent experience—so that great places can be built faster, with less friction, and more confidence.

Our core values

Empower through simplicity

We turn complex planning rules, design processes, and approvals into clear, intuitive experiences. Our goal is to remove friction so anyone—from a student to a city planner—can confidently shape the built world

Open by design

We believe the future of cities is built on open standards, shared knowledge, and collaboration. Our ecosystem is designed to integrate, extend, and grow—with plugins, APIs, and tools that are accessible to all

Speed with integrity

We move fast to solve urgent problems, but never at the cost of accuracy or quality. Whether it’s a generative design or a building compliance check, we stand for precision you can trust

Build for impact

We’re not here to optimise the status quo—we’re here to transform it. We challenge outdated processes, experiment boldly, and build solutions that deliver real-world, scalable impact

Customer foundations

We serve a spectrum of users—architects, developers, and governments—often on different sides of the same problem. By listening deeply and designing with empathy, we build solutions that cut through complexity and create real-world impact for everyone involved

Global mindset, for your locality

From Sydney to New York, we build with a global mindset through enabling local understanding. Our mission is to prepare every city, every designer, and every decision-maker for the digital future of the built environment
