Increasingly, construction companies are looking to manufacture building components offsite, in order to capitalize on the efficiency of factory production and to minimize labor at the construction site. However, the process of preparing a building design for manufacturing is difficult and expensive.

STUD-IO is developing a platform to intelligently connect building designs with manufacturing processes and automatically generate the manufacturing data for building components and assemblies, allowing builders to quickly evaluate and execute offsite manufacturing for their projects.

STUD-IO resides at the Autodesk’s Technology Center in Boston, a research and development workspace where Autodesk invites startups, colleges and universities, and industry experts to explore ways to advance the building industry.
