Falcon AI
Pro AI Copilot for Grasshopper
Plan Grasshopper definitions from intent, inspect component graphs, and debug parametric workflows with a pro copilot built for computational design teams.
- Canvas builder for Grasshopper definitions
- Visual debugging for data trees and component wiring
- Plugin-aware planning for Ladybug, Karamba, Kangaroo, and more
- Template library for recurring parametric systems
- Professional tier beside free FraktalMCP

How Falcon plans a Grasshopper definition before a single wire is drawn.
Create a parametric facade with hexagonal cells that vary by solar exposure.
- 01 Hexagonal Grid Base cell layout on the facade surface; cell size stays a slider.
- 02 Ladybug Solar Exposure Sun-hour analysis over the surface from the site context.
- 03 Remap Values Exposure results normalized to a 0-1 range.
- 04 Scale Cells by Attractor Cell openings shrink where exposure is high.
- 05 Offset + Loft Panels Buildable panel geometry, ready for fabrication logic.
- "Optimize this structure for minimum material" Karamba analysis + Galapagos evolutionary solver
- "Make roof panels follow a double-curved surface" Kangaroo planarization on subdivided quad mesh
Three Steps
Describe
Type what you want in natural language: "Create a parametric facade with hexagonal cells that respond to solar exposure."
Plan
Falcon proposes the definition: which components, how they wire, and which parameters drive them: a readable plan you review before building.
Refine
Tweak sliders, ask for changes in plain text, or let AI analyze your definition and suggest improvements.

What is Falcon AI?
Falcon AI is the pro Grasshopper copilot track. It focuses on canvas planning, visual debugging, plugin-aware workflows, and team-ready parametric systems. The free public plugin remains FraktalMCP.
Do I need coding experience?
No. Falcon is designed to turn design intent into readable Grasshopper workflow plans and debugging guidance. Advanced users can use it to speed up complex definitions and review data-tree logic.
Which Grasshopper plugins are planned?
Falcon AI is being designed around native Grasshopper first, then plugin-aware planning for Ladybug, Honeybee, Karamba, Kangaroo, and other common design-technology stacks.
Is it safe to use with client projects?
Your prompts are sent to your chosen AI provider (Claude, GPT, etc.). Your Rhino geometry and project files stay on your machine. The plugin runs locally; only the text of your prompts goes to the API.
How do I access Falcon AI?
Falcon AI is in development. Request a preview through Fraktal and describe your Grasshopper workflow. The free public plugin is FraktalMCP; Falcon is the pro copilot track.
