Developers and designers requiring an AI solution to create 3D models and production drawings
About DraftAid
Free designers from trivial and repetitive work. Preparing detailed drawings is tedious and error-prone. Reclaim time for actions that provide value, not busy work. Traditional methods for creating 2D fabrication drawings are a major time sink, often leading to extended project timelines and increased operational costs. Skilled engineers frequently find themselves tied up in repetitive drawing tasks, preventing them from focusing on more complex and innovative aspects of their work. Manual drawing processes are susceptible to human error, leading to inconsistencies and inaccuracies that can cause significant downstream manufacturing issues. Delays in design and drafting leave the manufacturing line stagnant. Teams strive to keep their manufacturing lines running constantly and uninterrupted to maximize efficiency. DraftAid frees drafters from drawing friction and drawing errors. DraftAid easily integrates with existing CAD software, enhancing your current workflow.

AutoMEP
AutoMEP is a browser-based AI drafting tool for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) engineers and designers. Users upload AutoCAD DWG or Revit RVT drawings, describe changes in plain English, and receive updated native DWG or RVT files. An AI agent reads the drawing, plans and applies requested work, then runs a separate review pass against the request. Supported tasks include HVAC duct and pipe routing, equipment placement, tagging with leaders, dimensions, pipe-slope annotations, schedules, and sheet layouts. AutoMEP organizes new geometry on AIA/NCS layers or a firm's own CAD standard and supports files with external references (xrefs). The browser-based workflow requires no installation, plug-in, macros, or CAD training and supports routine drafting changes across HVAC, electrical, and plumbing projects.

Vertex BD
Vertex BD is a BIM software for medium to large sized residential builders. Architectural and structural drawing sets, fabrication drawings, material reports, manufacturing data, and marketing renderings are generated all from one building model. Vertex BD automates the process of generating lot specific drawing sets, saving production home builders countless hours of having to recreate drawings for each customer's choice of house options. Vertex BD is primarily used as panel prefab software by component manufacturers and panelizers to automate the process of generating wall and floor panel fabrication drawings, structural layouts, cut lists, and other material reports. By automating these processes, manufacturers are saving a considerable amount of design, drafting and estimation time while minimizing errors at the construction site. Available for wood and cold-formed steel construction.
