Rayon’s mission
- Rayon is building the next generation of architectural design software: more collaborative, simpler, smarter, and more beautiful.
- The design of buildings and spaces has a huge impact on our lives. Climate change, affordable housing, sustainable urbanization, and the future of work are all challenges that will require us to design a better and more efficient built environment.
- Although architectural design is, by nature, a collaborative endeavor, the tools currently used by architects and designers are not built for collaboration or knowledge sharing. They are complex, expensive, and stuck in a pre-internet era, with desktop computers as their primary paradigm.
- We are building a browser-based, collaborative, real-time multiplayer editor to democratize architectural design and empower designers to create more efficient spaces and buildings.
Who are we?
- We are a small team of 32+ people passionate about web technology, architecture, and the built environment. First and foremost, we love building amazing tools for creators.
- Rayon was co-founded in October 2021 by Bastien Dolla, an engineer from École Polytechnique and Ponts et Chaussées with 15 years of experience in technology and real estate, and Stanislas Chaillou, an engineer and architect from EPFL and Harvard with a background in machine-learning research applied to architecture.
- Rayon raised a €4 million Seed round, backed by world-class investors including Northzone, Foundamental, Seedcamp, 20VC, and Kima, as well as amazing business angels such as Ralph Gootee, co-founder of PlanGrid; Joe Thomas, co-founder and CEO of Loom; architect Norman Foster; Rasmus Andersson, formerly of Spotify and Meta; Thibaud Elzière, founder of eFounders; Nicolas Steegmann, co-founder of Stupeflix; Riggs Kubiak, founder of Honest Buildings; and Jonathan Widawski, founder and CEO of Maze.
- Rayon is a French company based in Paris. We are open to remote candidates located in time zones close to Central European Time.
