Simplify's take

What believers are saying

  • Anguleris launched Gaudi AI on June 11, 2026, expanding adjacent demand for product research.
  • Modlar refreshed news and project content through November 2026, showing active traffic maintenance.
  • Modlar's 2026 homepage touts 16,000+ specification firms, supporting recurring ad sales.

What critics are saying

  • Anguleris owns Modlar, and capital allocation favors BIMsmith and Gaudi AI.
  • A 2022 acquisition means Modlar lacks independent financing and reporting discipline.
  • If architects migrate to AI-first search, Modlar's discovery traffic and brand ads evaporate.

What makes Modlar unique

  • Modlar sits inside Anguleris' AEC portfolio, alongside BIMsmith and Swatchbox, since 2022.
  • Its 567,000-member audience gives brands direct reach into specifiers and architects.
  • Top-firm penetration remains strong: 94% of the world's top 100 architecture firms.
