About Pirros

Pirros is the Github for Construction. Architects and engineers spend most of their time sketching blueprints and then have no way to store them. As a first step, we have built a content management system for all their blueprints with version control. The vision includes automatically suggesting and generating final blueprints based on a series of input parameters.

Build Something That Will Transform an Entire Industry

Pirros is revolutionizing the way architects and engineers work. This is a $400B+ industry that’s been underserved by technology for too long, and we are here to change that. 100+ companies already use Pirros, and we’re growing revenue at 15% month-over-month—but we’re just getting started.
