Your studio's creative memory, finally searchable.
DesignBrain connects to your existing archive—Dropbox, Google Drive, wherever your files live—and makes 20 years of work instantly accessible. Search by meaning, not filename. Ask questions, get answers grounded in your own projects.
No spam. Just updates on launch.
Your best work is buried.
Design studios accumulate decades of knowledge. Past projects. Material experiments. Resolved details. Fabrication lessons. Client solutions.
It's all there—scattered across drives, folders, hard disks. Filed by job number. Named by convention. Understood by the people who made it.
When someone leaves, the knowledge walks out with them. When a new project starts, you reinvent solutions you've already found. When a client asks 'what have you done like this before?' you spend hours hunting.
Your archive isn't working for you. It's just... storage.
From dead files to living intelligence.
Connect, Don't Migrate
DesignBrain links to your existing Dropbox or Google Drive. Your files stay where they are. No uploading gigabytes. No changing how you work. Just connect, select the folders, and let DesignBrain index your archive in the background.
Search by Meaning
Stop searching for 'J2847_GA_001_v3.pdf' and start searching for 'hotel reception desks with marble and brass.' DesignBrain understands your drawings, renders, and sketches—extracting materials, forms, spatial types, and design intent. Search how you think, not how you filed.
Ask Your Archive
'What details have we used for cantilevered desks?' 'Show me all projects with polished concrete floors.' 'How did we solve that drawer runner issue?' DesignBrain doesn't just retrieve—it answers, grounded in your own body of work.
Intelligence in three steps.
Connect
Link your Dropbox or Google Drive. Select the project folders you want to index. That's it—no uploading, no migration.
Index
DesignBrain analyzes your files: reading drawings, understanding renders, parsing folder structures and naming conventions. It builds a semantic map of your entire archive.
Search & Ask
Search naturally. Ask questions. Get answers with sources. Your 15-year archive becomes as accessible as a conversation.
It sees what you see.
DesignBrain doesn't just store metadata. It looks at your work—really looks—and understands it the way a designer would. Drawing types. Material choices. Formal language. Design intent.

Remix your own work.
Soon, DesignBrain won't just help you find past work—it'll help you create new work grounded in your studio's DNA.
Generate concept images trained on your aesthetic. Combine the desk form from one project with the material palette from another. Get detail suggestions based on how you've solved similar problems before.
Your archive becomes a creative partner, not just a reference library.
