Global Expansion & Platform Updates

It's been a long time coming, almost seven years in the making. Creating new features, learning, testing, pushing, learning, testing, testing, testing.

Yet here we are, thrilled to share that Better Building is expanding into the United States and other international markets, making our simulation platform available to people worldwide.

Our journey to this point has been long and thorough. We started as a small team with a vision to build something far greater than ourselves, something only achievable through a shared commitment to create better buildings.

Today, that vision reaches beyond Australia and New Zealand to designers, architects, and engineers around the globe.

A New Way to Access the Platform

To support our growing global community, we've created a unified access point for everyone. If you've been using au.betterbuilding.io or nz.betterbuilding.io platforms, you'll now find us at app.betterbuilding.io.

New users joining through app.betterbuilding.io will have access to our full range of simulation capabilities, completely independent of region-specific compliance processes. This means you can create designs and run simulations tailored to your needs, with access to our complete toolkit: thermal, moisture, and carbon calculations, elemental tools for walls, roofs, and floors, plus our 2D and 3D simulation workflows.

Moving to US Dollar Pricing

As we expand globally, we're transitioning to US dollar pricing to better serve our international audience.

• If you're an existing Australian or New Zealand customer: Don't worry, nothing changes for you right now. Your current pricing stays exactly as it is, unless you choose to modify your account settings or pause your subscription. If you do pause and then restart, your new charges will be in US dollars. Based on today's exchange rates, we don't expect this to significantly affect your monthly or annual costs, though there may be small variations due to currency fluctuations.

• If you're a new customer: All new accounts will be billed in US dollars, with monthly or annual payment options. You'll find our updated pricing displayed below.

USD Pricing

Post the 7th of November 2025, all future pricing on new plans are based on USD.

What This Means for You

We're genuinely excited about this expansion, not just into the US, but worldwide. Whether you're in India, Brazil, or anywhere else, you now have access to our platform and all its features (except for region-specific compliance workflows, which remain tied to their respective locations).
