Secondant for architects

Protect the design hours.

For the architect-partner and practice leadership. Renders, videos, vision texts, reports, acquisition: everything around the designing we speed up — so the hours go to the work you chose this profession for.

The workflows

What we build.

No demos, no practice cases. We build every workflow on the work that's genuinely on your desk that week — until it runs permanently faster.

01

Artist impressions & renders

AI image tools on top of your existing workflow — SketchUp, Vectorworks, Revit or Archicad. From working model or sketch to mood image in minutes, in your practice's style.

02

Video & animation

Short project films and walkthroughs from still work: for the competition, the client and social. Without an animation-studio budget.

03

BIM & model workflows

Working smarter with your models: exports, naming conventions, scripts and small automations around your BIM environment that save hours every week.

04

Competitions & tenders

Plan analyses, vision texts and plans of approach in the practice's voice. Writing hours down, design hours up.

05

Vision documents & briefs

Getting to grips with and summarising briefs of requirements, visions and project descriptions that sound like you — not like a machine.

06

Practice presentations & portfolio

Credentials, project sheets and presentations that stay current without a weekend disappearing each time.

07

Reporting & practice process

Design reviews and construction meetings turned into minutes with action points. Quotes and fee proposals drawn up faster.

08

Digital brain

Your references, details, texts and project knowledge — searchable for you and later for the practice. Knowledge that no longer leaves with people.

Visibility

Thought leadership,
without the day job.

Commissions follow visibility. We build a rhythm of personal posts, project stories and articles from the work that's already there — in your voice and your practice's, fed by the digital brain, in minutes a week.

How it works

Three phases.
Three to six months.

1

Foundation

Your working week on the table, your stack set up (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok), security first, the start of your digital brain.

2

Working practice

Weekly working session on your real work. One workflow permanently faster per session. A direct line in between.

3

Independent

Frequency down, autonomy up. Quarterly upgrades of the stack. The secondant makes itself redundant.

The first move

One conversation.
Then you'll know.

A 45-minute intro call, built around your working week. Afterwards you'll know exactly what a secondant delivers — or that it's not for you. Either is fine.
