Hypar

Hypar is a cloud-based design automation platform that provides free, Revit-compatible space planning tools for architects, engineers, and designers. It focuses on complex building types such as healthcare facilities, data centers, offices, and laboratories, enabling teams to generate, evaluate, and iterate on layouts far more quickly than with manual methods. The platform’s primary purpose is to streamline early-stage planning and coordination by combining rule-based automation with data-rich, BIM-ready outputs.

Key features include automated space planning that adheres to user-defined requirements, building codes, and program constraints, producing layouts that can be directly exported to Revit. Hypar supports parametric design logic, allowing users to encode design standards and reuse them across projects, improving consistency and reducing repetitive work. The platform runs computations in the cloud, enabling rapid scenario generation and comparison across multiple design options. It also supports collaboration by allowing teams to share, review, and refine generated layouts in a browser-based environment.
