Infrared - AI-Powered Environmental Simulations
Background

About Us

Revolutionizing environmental design through accessible simulation technology.

Democratizing advanced environmental analysis for a sustainable future.

We're driven by a singular mission: making sophisticated environmental simulation accessible to every designer. Our team combines expertise in computational fluid dynamics, machine learning, architecture, and software development to create tools that transform how buildings and cities are designed.

We believe data-driven sustainability decisions shouldn't require specialized expertise or massive computational resources – they should be available to everyone shaping our built environment.
