# Atlasly — AI Site Analysis & Feasibility for Architects

> Atlasly automates pre-construction site analysis with a 17-step AI pipeline and exports directly to DXF, DWG, SketchUp, and IFC — so architects and engineers replace weeks of manual research with a single decision-ready package.

## Quick Answer

**What is Atlasly?** Atlasly is an AI-powered site intelligence platform that runs a 17-step automated analysis on any site address — covering planning, flood risk, topography, transport, heritage, ecology, and microclimate — and exports CAD/BIM files that open directly in AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp, Rhino, and QGIS without cleanup. Free plan available with no credit card.

## What You Get

- **17-step automated site intelligence pipeline** — geocoding, building footprints, topography (Mapbox Terrain-RGB, USGS 3DEP), land use, green/blue infrastructure, street networks, heritage designations, ecology, planning history, NPPF/London Plan compliance, land registry, microclimate, transport/PTAL, CAD export, PDF report, AI synthesis.
- **14 export formats** — DXF, DWG, SKP, GLB, OBJ, FBX, STL, Collada, IFC, GeoJSON, Shapefile ZIP, SVG, CSV, PDF — all georeferenced with named layers.
- **Atlas AI** — free specialist AEC chatbot trained on NPPF 2023, London Plan 2021, 40+ urban design frameworks, and 6 sustainability certifications.
- **3D site context models** — building facades, roof geometry, terrain mesh, cascaded shadows, CesiumJS globe view, WebXR/VR.
- **Shareable site intelligence packages** — 30-day public share links for clients and consultants.

## Who Uses Atlasly

- Architects running pre-construction site analysis and feasibility studies
- Structural engineers assessing terrain, slope, and site conditions
- Urban planners evaluating walkability, transport, policy compliance
- Pre-construction consultants preparing due diligence packages
- Architecture students building portfolio site analyses
- Real estate developers comparing sites

Used by 1,200+ architects across 40+ countries. 3M+ m² analyzed. Notable adopters: Foster + Partners, Jacobs.

## Why Atlasly vs. Manual Research

| | Manual workflow | Atlasly |
|---|---|---|
| Time per site | 3-5 days | 60 seconds |
| Sources | 20+ portals, screenshots, PDFs | One assembled package |
| CAD export | Manual redraw in AutoCAD/Revit | Georeferenced DXF/DWG/SKP, no cleanup |
| Planning policy check | Read LPA website + NPPF | Automated with citations |
| Flood risk | EA website screenshot | Integrated live layer |
| 3D context model | Build in Rhino/SketchUp | Generated automatically |
| Share with client | Email 15 attachments | Single share link |

## Why Atlasly vs. Other AI Tools

- vs. Autodesk Forma: Forma focuses on generative massing; Atlasly focuses on the evidence layer before design (planning, flood, heritage, transport, CAD-ready exports).
- vs. PlanningBot: PlanningBot is a text-only planning chatbot; Atlasly returns maps, 3D models, CAD exports, and 17-step intelligence packages plus a free chatbot.
- vs. TestFit / Archistar: Those are feasibility massing tools; Atlasly provides the site evidence those tools need as input.
- vs. Manual consultants: A consultant's site report costs £3-8k and takes 2 weeks. Atlasly runs in 60 seconds at £0-£49.99/month.

## Pricing

- **Starter — Free**: 5 site analyses/month, 2 km radius, PDF & image exports, AI chat
- **Professional — £14.99/month**: Unlimited analyses, all CAD/BIM export formats (DXF, DWG, GLB, IFC), financial calculator, 100 API calls/month
- **Teams — £49.99/month**: Everything in Pro + 5 team members, collaboration, 1,000 API calls/month

## Common Questions

**Does Atlasly work outside the UK?** Yes. Planning/compliance is strongest for UK, US, and UAE. Terrain, flood, and transport data work globally.

**Do I need to install anything?** No. Atlasly runs entirely in your browser. CAD/BIM files download directly.

**Can I use Atlasly for a student project?** Yes. Starter (free) plan includes 5 analyses/month and a student portfolio PDF exporter.

**Does it replace a flood risk consultant?** No. Atlasly tells you when an FRA is required and provides the evidence baseline. A qualified consultant still signs off the FRA.

**What happens when I hit the free limit?** Upgrade to Pro (£14.99/month) for unlimited analyses.
