Key Insights
Nception is Spatial Construx's revolutionary solution that generates, from Autodesk® Revit® files, a fully explorable architectural plan as an interactive 3D environment to help architects, builders and clients visualize their design and to test various scenarios before committing to them.
Previously only available as an extension of Revit®, Nception is now available as Nception PRO, which allows up to 20 people to explore any architectural plan in an interactive, first-person experience and includes voice-over IP, team collaboration systems, and more.
All in a highly secure environment to protect client's information, their data and ensure data sovereignty of Spatial Construx's global customers.
Deploying on the world's largest, and first, regionless edge network allows Spatial Construx to deploy a server both at the ideal location between users, and nearest them to minimize latency, during the shared instance amongst key stakeholders.
Global Run's just-in-time, pay-per-use pricing alongside one global price for hosting also facilitates Spatial Construx commercial viability.
The Company
Founded by AEC visionary Arol Wolford, the company delivers intuitive, immersive experiences throughout every phase of the architectural and construction lifecycle. From initial concept visualizations to the ongoing optimization of in-service buildings, Spatial Construx's flagship application, Nception, enables stakeholders to explore detailed architectural plans in fully rendered 3D environments - no specialized design software skills required.
The Challenge
Nception's is, by design, a shared collaborative tool of immersive 3D visualisation. From the onset, it was clear for the Spatial Construx team they would need to provide an experience shaped by the expectations of its customers from another industry completely – video games.
As such, a platform with a resilient, secure, and highly performant servers imposed itself as mandatory to deliver on Spatial Construx customer's expectations.
The Solution
Fortunately, the development team had firsthand experience with Global Run's regionless edge network from a previous project.
This allowed the Spatial Construx development team to scope and develop features for its shared instances, where up to 20 users interact in the same 3D environment, easily.
Specifically, this speed of iteration was lauded by the development team themselves as key to help them test and iterate on features. Which ultimately helped develop Nception's application faster..
Integration: Integration was quick and easy and require zero input from the Global Run's team.
Secure: These capabilities are delivered within a robust security framework designed to safeguard client information and proprietary data at every layer. By enforcing strict access controls, encryption protocols, and continuous monitoring, we uphold the highest standards of data protection and compliance. This approach not only shields sensitive assets but also guarantees data residency and sovereignty for Spatial Construx's customers around the globe.
Resiliency: Nception works on massive projects, ranging from million to billion dollar projects. It must work, and thus being affected by outages is simply unacceptable given its customers' time is always in short supply. Global Run's multi-cloud orchestration ensures Nception is always online, even if the internet (or some providers) might not.
Regionless Hosting: Deploying on the world's largest, and first, regionless edge network allows Spatial Construx to deploy a server both at the ideal location between users, and nearest them to minimize latency, during the shared instance.
Pricing: Global Run's just-in-time, pay-per-use pricing alongside one global price for hosting also facilitates Spatial Construx commercial viability.
Conclusion
Pairing Nception's immersive, multi-user VR environment with Global Run's regionless edge network and flexible pricing model, Spatial Construx has delivered a truly game-grade collaboration platform for the AEC industry.
Project teams can now conduct real-time, first-person walkthroughs of even the most complex designs; with sub-50 ms latency, enterprise-grade security, and guaranteed data sovereignty - without ever leaving their favorite design tools.
Rapid, cost-efficient integration and on-demand server deployment have accelerated development cycles, enabling faster feature iteration and a more polished end product.
As a result, architects, builders, and owners enjoy clearer insights, fewer on-site surprises, and more confident decision-making at every phase of a project. Spatial Construx is poised to redefine how the built environment is envisioned, reviewed, and refined flawlessly.
