What is Qubu?

Qubu is a deeptech company transforming residential building design with powerful generative software tailored to transform how architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) professionals approach design and build multi-family real estate projects.

Mission and Vision

Our mission is to address the global housing shortage by making residential design more efficient, sustainable, and accessible to all stakeholders in the building process.

At its core, Qubu replaces repetitive manual tasks with intelligent, data-driven processes—empowering architects and engineers to work more efficiently while optimizing for affordability, sustainability, and compliance. Unlike traditional CAD or BIM tools, Qubu operates through a discrete design system, allowing users to work with meaningful spatial units called Fragments instead of disconnected elements like walls or lines. These Fragments carry embedded information about structure, environment, and usage, enabling seamless automation, analysis, and iteration across the entire design lifecycle.

Design & build automation

Qubu reimagines the architectural design process by replacing slow, manual iteration with a generative, system-driven approach. Where traditional workflows often begin from scratch, Qubu gives teams a 40% head start through reusable, adaptable assets. These assets—modular, parametric building blocks—form a high-fidelity spatial database, ready to be deployed across projects, preserving institutional knowledge and accelerating delivery from 0 to 100% in a fraction of the usual time.

Multi-objective optimisation in real time

At the heart of Qubu is a looped generative system that continuously evaluates and optimizes each design decision in real time. This infrastructure enables multi-objective optimization—balancing economic, environmental, spatial, and regulatory goals without sacrificing speed or precision. By embedding intelligence into both the assets and the design process itself, Qubu not only accelerates the timeline but directly influences the feasibility, constructability, and cost-effectiveness of the final product.

Ultimately, Qubu provides a flexible, performance-driven foundation for modern building design—where speed meets system, and creativity is amplified by computation.
