Overview

Gendo offers a browser-based AI platform for architecture that enables architects to turn designs into beautiful visualisations in seconds rather than days using text prompts. The product is aimed at architects and designers and runs in the browser. Founded in 2022 by George Proud and Will Jones and based in London, the company emerged from beta in July 2024. Since beta it has amassed 3,600 global users and seen over 50,000 images generated across 5,000 projects, with users at practices including Zaha Hadid Architects, KPF, David Chipperfield Architects, and Benoy. Financially, the company has completed a pre-seed of £855K and a subsequent Seed round. Gendo plans to use the new funds to expand operations and accelerate development efforts. Gendo is a London, UK-based company founded in 2022 that provides an AI platform for architects and designers. It offers a browser-based application that leverages a novel combination of generative AI and ML models to assist designers. Users can upload PNG or JPG files and create accurate images of their work. The platform takes basic forms or well-resolved designs and adds materiality, lighting, and detailing while adhering to the user's intent. Gendo is already in beta with global architecture practices including Zaha Hadid Architects, KPF, David Chipperfield Architects, and Benoy. The company intends to use the €1M Pre-Seed funding to expand its proprietary AI capabilities, accelerate new feature launches, and scale its team.
