Who we are

Nonlinear was founded by a team of Stanford University graduates who have worked in both Architecture, Engineering, & Construction (AEC) and AI software. With this dual perspective, we not only see the daily challenges AEC firms face - we know how to solve them.

Our mission is to empower AEC teams to automate their most repetitive tasks, freeing them to focus on the creative, human-centered work that truly moves projects forward.
