Raven is a Grasshopper-native AI for 3D CAD tool Rhino, that is designed to make it significantly easier for architects to harness the power of parametric geometry, computational design, and visual scripting.
Instead of building parametric definitions node by node in Grasshopper, Raven allows architects to start from a simple sketch and together with simple text prompts let the system generate the logic.
The software works by reverse-engineering the Grasshopper scripts that are needed to generate the form, using Rhino’s extensive plug-in ecosystem.
Through the conversational interface users can clarify and refine intent, updating both script and model in real time.
