2024 has been an incredible year for us at Hektar, and we’re immensely grateful to everyone who has been part of our journey. As we look ahead to 2025, we’re excited to share what’s on the horizon – a year brimming with innovation, new features, and collaborations designed to transform urban planning with AI and generative design.
We’ve enhanced our algorithms and are expanding with new typologies for volumes and core designs in 2025. Additionally, faster generation speeds will allow you to effortlessly explore multiple urban planning options, saving time and boosting efficiency.
One of our most anticipated features is finally here! With Multiple Plots, you can lock specific parts of the site and let our AI generate the rest – perfect for precision design and flexible projects. Sign up today to stay updated on this groundbreaking functionality!
Simplify your workflow with our new export function for CAD and BIM. Seamless interoperability at your fingertips!
Explore light simulations, shadows, and site-specific solutions directly in Hektar. We’re dedicated to making your design decisions even more intuitive.
In 2025, we continue the participation in the Acceleration of deeptech program via Vinnova. We’re accelerating our AI development for generative design. We are working on an advanced AI solution that sets a new standard for project creation and optimization. Stay tuned for an in-depth look at this exciting work!
We’re collaborating with leading architecture and engineering firms, as well as top AI researchers, to take generative design to the next level. These partnerships aim to enhance and fast-track innovation, transforming how architects shape the cities of tomorrow.
Our goal? To revolutionize the industry with cutting-edge deep tech solutions that empower architects to create smarter, more sustainable designs. Stay tuned for more updates!
