FAQ
Can you automate steel framing?
Yes. I can develop automation for steel framing and light gauge steel workflows, including members, studs, tracks, panels, openings, numbering, quantities, and related data.
Can you generate BOMs and material takeoffs?
Yes. If the required project rules and data are available, the tool can extract model information and generate BOMs, quantities, material lists, or reports.
Can you integrate CAD with another software system?
Yes, where the external software provides a suitable API, SDK, database connection, or supported integration method.
Can you modify an existing plugin or CAD tool?
Yes, provided the existing software/plugin and its source or supported development interface allow the required modifications.
Can you build a Proof of Concept first?
Yes. For larger projects, starting with a POC can be useful for validating the core automation before developing the complete system.
What do you need before starting?
Please provide your CAD version, sample files, current workflow, desired result, automation requirements, and any existing templates or examples. For complex projects, I can review the workflow and define the scope before development.
Can you build a completely custom CAD plugin?
Yes. I can develop custom plugins with dedicated commands, interfaces, automation features, settings, and workflow specific functionality.
