Giraffe Spatial Planning and Feasibility Platform

Giraffe Technology Pty Ltd is an Australian company that describes Giraffe as an operating system for real estate development and city building. It replaces fragmented GIS, CAD, spreadsheet and consultant workflows that slow down site selection, masterplanning and planning assessment for developers and governments.

The browser-based, map-first platform combines thousands of spatial layers with drawing tools, generative design, feasibility algorithms (yield, residual land value, zoning, pro forma) and AI workflows in one structured decision system. Local governments use it for strategic and precinct planning, community engagement, development assessment, pattern books and spatial toolkits. A JavaScript SDK and plugin catalogue let teams build their own apps. Users include developers, architects, corporate real estate teams, data centre and renewable energy developers, and municipalities in Australia and the US.

• Real estate data platform: Connects thousands of planning, market and spatial layers on one map.
• Generative design: Encodes product standards into computational massing and layouts.
• Feasibility engine: Calculates yield, residual land value, zoning and pro forma from massing.
• Site analysis and selection: Screens property opportunities at portfolio scale.
• Government toolkit: Supports strategic planning, precinct design, engagement and assessment.
• SDK and plugins: Lets teams build custom apps and AI workflows on the platform.

A Vietnamese residential developer can test unit mix, height and land value scenarios on a candidate site within hours. A provincial planning institute can share interactive precinct plans for community feedback. A solar or industrial park developer can screen parcels against grid, slope and zoning layers.

Customer quotes report site assessment cut from weeks to hours (Trammell Crow Company) and outputs within 1% of a Revit model built in a tenth of the time (Mortenson). Planning, feasibility and engagement share one live spatial model, reducing back-and-forth with consultants. A self-serve plan starts free without a credit card.

Developers and planning authorities are adopting map-based AI tools to speed up land acquisition, feasibility and approvals as housing, data centre and renewable energy pipelines grow. In Vietnam and Southeast Asia, new land and planning regulations and large urban and industrial projects increase demand for fast, transparent feasibility and planning analysis.
