Our story
About Acouso
Acouso was founded to address a gap in how acoustic design is applied in practice.
Making acoustics part of the design process
While the methods for designing acoustic performance are well established, applying them has remained manual and disconnected from the design process. Acoustic analysis often relies on exported drawings, external tools, and repeated setup — making it difficult to use consistently throughout a project. As a result, acoustics is frequently introduced late, reviewing decisions rather than informing them.
Acouso began as an effort to make acoustic analysis more accessible and integrated into building design. What started as academic research into improving the accessibility of acoustics evolved into a working tool, then into a product used on real projects.
Today, Acouso brings acoustic analysis directly into the Revit environment. No exports. No model rebuilds. No switching tools. The model becomes the source of truth, with results updating as the design evolves.
Acouso-ROOM focuses on room-level acoustic analysis across your model. Acouso-PLAN extends this further — incorporating building elements, adjacencies, and structures to provide a complete view of acoustic performance at project scale.
Acouso is built with a clear focus: making acoustics faster, more accessible, and integrated into the design process from the outset — not applied at the end.
The person behind Acouso™
Josh holds degrees in Mechanical Engineering and Finance from the University of Queensland, graduating on the BEL Dean's Honour Roll and receiving the New Colombo Plan Scholarship to study advanced engineering in Japan. His career spans acoustic engineering, software development, asset management and trading, with experience at Stantec, Aurecon and Income Asset Management.
When he's not building Acouso, he's probably on a mountain bike or deep in a conversation about startups.
