So basically Grasshopper as far as visual programming and computation, with an optimized output representation for quick rendering.

Seems cool. Grasshopper doesn’t get enough credit for changing the world, and the more people move from static design to parametric design, the better.

Yes, effectively. The nuance being currently this graph and set of nodes isn't exposed to the user. It's "manual" inputs i.e drawing walls, placing windows etc. But this makes creating VPL on top simple.
Cool. What’s the market like for a new BIM system? With almost zero knowledge it seems like something that would be hard to get the first few sales for, against the incumbents.
Our team is a mix of industry insiders and outsiders. But people are crying for it, AEC needs a modern day BIM design tool.

Just look at the TWO open letters written about Revit to ADSK CEO. Or our waitlist of over 15,000 people.

That’s great to hear! Hope you knock it out of the park.
