AI for Building Design, Planning, and Permitting

Saw Spacial recently — it's an AI tool that helps figure out what can be built on a piece of land, based on local zoning rules. You enter a parcel and it generates 3D massing, site plans, and other planning details in a few minutes. Seems like it could be super helpful for early-stage architecture or development work.

In plain words

Spacial is an AI tool that analyzes zoning regulations for a given land parcel and generates planning outputs in minutes. Users input property information and receive 3D massing models, site plans, and other design details based on local building codes. The tool is designed for architects, developers, and planners in early-stage project work who need to quickly understand development potential and regulatory constraints for a site.

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
