Chaos announces it has acquired EvolveLAB, a developer of AI software created to streamline visualization, generative design, documentation and interoperability for AEC professionals. With this acquisition, Chaos reinforces design-to-visualization workflows, while expanding to include critical tools for BIM automation, AI-driven ideation and computational design.
Founded in 2015, EvolveLAB was the first to integrate generative AI technology into architectural modeling software, demonstrating the massive potential of mixing imaginative prompts with 3D geometry. Through its flagship software Veras, EvolveLAB connected this capability to leading BIM products like SketchUp, Revit, Vectorworks and others, before expanding into smart documentation and generative design. Today, customers like Cuningham, Störmer Murphy and Partners, H2I, LS3P and TVS Design use these tools to great effect, cutting costs and delays across the design process.
The EvolveLAB toolset is the latest addition to the Chaos ecosystem, the AEC industry’s only end-to-end hub for design and visualization. Designed to streamline workflows, this environment seamlessly connects concept ideation, real-time visualization, photorealistic rendering, generative design and automated AI documentation — eliminating the need for multiple disconnected tools. With this ecosystem users can apply the right technology at each design stage, solving problems quickly and efficiently. The EvolveLAB tools now join powerful technology like Enscape, Envision, Corona, V-Ray and Vantage, extending Chaos’ growing AI offerings.
