AI Adjacencies
“AI Adjacencies turn program data into intelligent layouts, respecting real-world space relationships so architects can move from planning to design with speed and confidence.”
– Sai Dileep Dunna, Product Analyst

What’s New

Snaptrude now combines AI-powered adjacency generation with flexible adjacency types, giving architects smarter control over how spaces and departments relate. Adjacencies are automatically created the moment you generate a program, and new Arrange/Pack workflows let you transform those relationships into usable layouts in seconds.

Why This Matters

  • For first-time users: Jump from program creation to adjacency-driven layouts in minutes, without manual setup.
  • For experienced users: Save time on adjacency updates, explore multiple layout options quickly, and reduce repetitive edits.
  • For all teams: Improve the fidelity of your early designs by honoring both required adjacencies and restricted separations.

Key Features

  • Automatic Adjacency Computation
    • Instantly generated for every new program (AI, CSV import, Interpret).
    • Toggle adjacencies at space level, department level, or both.
  • Variable Adjacency Types
    • Strong: Must be placed directly beside each other.
    • Indirect: Should be near each other, but not touching.
    • Restricted: Must not be adjacent.
  • Arrange & Pack Tools
    • Arrange: Repositions spaces or the full project to resolve adjacency lines.
    • Pack: Creates adjacency-respecting layouts, with the ability to repack for alternative options.
  • Editing & Control
    • Add or delete adjacencies manually.
    • Use Contact Adjacencies toggle to form adjacencies by moving spaces together.
    • Recompute adjacencies anytime while preserving contact-based edits.
  • Performance & Smart Handling
    • Pack and arrange up to 80 spaces/departments at once.
    • Real-time loader shows estimated compute time.
    • Smart clustering improves handling of multiple instances of the same space type.
