I will build a browser cad tool for solar panel layout or your industry


About this gig
I build browser-based CAD tools for industries stuck between a desktop CAD seat and a spreadsheet.
I'm an engineer (BSE, Case Western Reserve) who co-founded a solar design automation company. I've built and shipped: a web CAD app used for utility solar layout, a signed browser-to-AutoCAD bridge, Autodesk Platform Services integrations, and geometry engines (routing, packing, rule checking) that run in the browser or behind an API.
What you get: a tool your team or customers use in a browser (no installs, no CAD licenses per seat), real CAD output (DWG, PDF, IFC, not screenshots), and your rules encoded: your standards, your part libraries, your formats.
How it works: we start with a scoping prototype so you see the core workflow clicking before committing to the full build. Then I build in milestones with a deployed URL at every step.
I work honestly about fit: if your problem needs a desktop plugin or a different specialist, I'll say so in the first conversation. For solar teams: panel layout counts, PV stringing assignments, and string sizing checks in the browser, no CAD seat needed.

FAQ
Do I need AutoCAD licenses for my users?
No. The tool runs in the browser. If you need round-trips to desktop AutoCAD, I've built signed bridges that do exactly that, and we scope it explicitly.
Can it output real DWG files?
Yes, via Autodesk Platform Services or open libraries depending on your licensing needs; the scoping prototype settles which.
Who owns the code?
You do, once the order completes. Delivered as a repo you control plus a deployed instance.
Why is there no flat quote for my whole project on this page?
Custom CAD tools vary enormously. The Basic package exists so scope gets locked in before the full build quote, with no surprises later.
