NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun 2, 2025--
Arcol today unveiled its collaborative building design platform, created to transform the way architects, engineers, and construction (AEC) teams design and build. Arcol introduces powerful real-time collaboration, intuitive modeling, and seamless data integration—all in one easy-to-use, web-based environment that reignites creativity and streamlines the building design process by replacing disconnected tools, clunky exports, and the version chaos that slows teams down.

“We built Arcol to bring the magic back to building design,” said Paul O’Carroll, founder and CEO of Arcol. “I know from first-hand experience that architects and other building design professionals are too regularly bogged down by outdated software and tedious workflows. Arcol removes friction from the design process so teams are empowered to collaborate freely, iterate quickly, and remain focused on creating their best possible work.”
“What stands out about Arcol is its ease of use and the way it reshapes our rhythm,” said Maria Eugenia Puppo, core activity product manager at slantis. “Arcol plugs into how we already work – quickly, visually, and collectively – and lets us design not just faster, but also better, together.”
Arcol reflects the inherently collaborative nature of the AEC industry and lets teams unlock their creative freedom by eliminating disruptions from disconnected files and emails. Teams in Arcol:
The Arcol experience embeds data context into every interaction to simplify communication, and its industry-leading boards feature is an apt example. Whether shaping a concept or gathering feedback, teams can drag and drop designs, data, and documentation into a shared visual workspace and keep collaborators aligned as projects take shape.
Anton Shaw, BIM manager and automation lead at Warren & Mahoney, says “With Arcol, an entire team and client can work together in one tool to explore options and see the impacts in real time with updated reports at their fingertips.”
With the launch of its new platform, Arcol is introducing an alternative to legacy BIM platforms. Today, Arcol is delivering a robust concept design experience while looking towards a roadmap covering more processes, including schematic design and eventually construction documentation as well. The company is committed to transforming building design into a more collaborative, dynamic and enjoyable experience.
“We believe real-time collaboration is the future of our industry, “ said Bob Rayes, chief operating officer at Corgan. “Meaningful and impactful projects happen when all stakeholders are working in sync early and often. Arcol's belief in re-thinking the AEC design stack with real-time collaboration and modern technology is something we're incredibly excited to continue to partner with them on.”
