Our Story

Architecture is in our DNA

CleverBuild.ai was founded by Henry Kendall, whose grandfather — also named Henry Kendall — graduated from MIT, served as President of the American Institute of Architects, and was one of the most respected architects of his era at Kendall & Taylor Architects.

Growing up in Newton, Boston, surrounded by design and a family tradition in architecture, Henry eventually discovered computer science and pursued a new path at Michigan State University. But his love for architecture never left.

CleverBuild.ai is where those two worlds finally meet: a family legacy in architecture, amplified by the power of AI.

Make building homes faster, more affordable, and possible for everyone.
