Spectrum is an architectural analysis software platform leveraging cloud processing to rapidly provide sustainability feedback on building design. Spectrum is compatible with industry standard 3D architectural computer-aided-design programs, is simple to use, provides robust comparisons on a full range of building designs across a building’s entire life scale, and enables architects to meet energy codes and carbon mandates while staying within budgetary guidelines. Spectrum recently placed second at the BASES challenge and was a finalist at the 2015 DOE sponsored FLOW competition held at Caltech.
