BUILDPLAN

sales-led; no disclosed pricing Design the Building

Web app (a Build AI module) that walks site setup through AI massing, feasibility (NOI/IRR/NPV/DSCR/Cap Rate), and a bill of quantities to an exportable PDF proposal. Localized for Japan (coverage/FAR/slant-plane zoning) and Mongolia; UI in Mongolian/Japanese/English/Korean. Sales-led with no disclosed pricing and no public API.

Hidden Pricing
1.8 /5 composite score
The conceptual-massing placement is the site-setup-to-massing workflow with PDF proposal export. RF1 keeps C1 at 1/5 because pricing is sales-led with no disclosed pricing, C2 1/5 reflects no public API, CLI, MCP, webhook, or scripting surface, and C4 3/5 reflects IFC import plus PDF export.

Development Feasibility & Pro Forma
The development-feasibility placement is the NOI, IRR, NPV, DSCR, and cap-rate workflow tied to Japan and Mongolia zoning coverage plus PDF proposal export. RF1 keeps C1 at 1/5 because pricing is sales-led with no disclosed pricing, and C2 1/5 reflects no public API, CLI, MCP, webhook, or scripting surface.
