Archie AI is one free place for the whole home journey: design a dream home and turn it into a complete architectural blueprint set, follow plain-English permit and cost guidance, browse homes for sale with honest inspection context, prepare any offer with facts cited to government sources, and connect with realtors and licensed pros. Archie brings work to realtors — never away from them.
Archie AI is a free web and mobile app for everything about a home, in one place. Describe a dream home in plain words and Archie designs it, then drafts a complete architectural blueprint set — cover sheet, floor plans, elevations, sections, and schedules — sheet by sheet, saved under your name and printable. A public gallery of finished sets is open to everyone, no account needed.
The practical side is covered too: a building-permit guide that goes down to the county or city level with direct links to official local applications and a practice mode for rehearsing a real form; an itemized new-home construction cost estimator; a financing calculator; and plain-English guides to inspections, title, taxes and zoning, land, home health hazards, and real-estate scams — plus a homeowner dictionary where every entry cites an official source.
On the market side, browse homes for sale with full photo tours, showcase videos, and honest inspection context. When it is time to negotiate, Archie arms you with the government's own numbers: the home's flood zone from FEMA's flood maps, the local climate picture and its utility-bill consequences from NOAA records, crime compared honestly against the state using the FBI's public data, current mortgage math from the official weekly rate survey, the area's price direction from the federal house-price index, property-tax facts from county records, and environmental checks from EPA and CDC data. Every fact carries a citation you can open, unknowns are admitted rather than papered over, and the report ends in a suggested plan to bring to your realtor.
The people side is what Archie is really for: a realtor directory built on real sales history, areas served, and languages spoken; licensed pros across sixteen trades with license and insurance details shown up front; and a leaderboard where every ranked job was confirmed by the client it was done for. Archie brings work to realtors — never away from them.
Archie is free and today charges no one — no subscriptions, no paywalls, no fees for members or professionals. When referrals go live, an agent who closes a deal with a member they met through Archie will pay a referral fee from their own commission; members will never pay it. And Archie is honest about being AI: everything it produces is a sample for learning, and the decisions that matter belong with licensed professionals.
Behind the tools is Archie Engine 1.5, Archie's own self-created orchestration system — unique, designed and built from scratch in-house, with no equivalent product to license off the shelf — coordinating specialized engines: deterministic calculation engines for negotiation math, costs, and financing that never guess; citation-verified fact-gathering that refuses to state a fact it cannot source; generation pipelines whose output is machine-inspected, surgically repaired when flawed, and self-recovering when jobs fail — running on the part that took years: 11 states built out around their own permitting systems, more than 1,500 county and city permit jurisdictions cataloged with more than 850 of them mapped to their official applications, more than 3,200 hand-verified links to official government sources under continuous automated re-checking, 15 distinct guided member tools, and more than 35 automated honesty checks that block dishonest copy from shipping. Those numbers are derived from Archie's own registries rather than typed by hand and served live, machine-readable, at https://archieverse.io/api/build-inventory for anyone to fetch — and a comparable rebuild is realistically a multi-person engineering team working for a year or more: payroll arithmetic anyone can redo from the U.S. government's published median software-developer wage ($133,080 a year as of May 2024, per the Bureau of Labor Statistics at https://www.bls.gov/ooh/computer-and-information-technology/software-developers.htm) reaches a seven-figure total at the larger team sizes, before earning any of the verified data. And none of it asks to be taken on faith: signing up is free, the cost and financing calculators run for visitors without an account, the blueprint gallery is public, and every guide citation lands on an official government page — the invitation is to test Archie yourself rather than take its word.
