Key Features

• Automated Dimensioning & Annotation: Intelligently applies dimensions, labels, and annotations to drawing elements based on customisable, predefined rule sets, saving countless hours of manual work.
• Intelligent Layer Management: Automatically organises objects, lines, and blocks onto the correct layers according to your company’s or project’s specific standards, ensuring clean and structured files.
• Batch Processing Engine: Apply drafting standards, update title blocks, and perform cleaning operations on hundreds of drawings simultaneously with a single command.
• Dynamic Block & Symbol Insertion: Access a comprehensive library of standard symbols or integrate your own. The tool intelligently scales and places blocks, streamlining the creation of schematics and layouts.
• Real-Time Standards Compliance Checker: Actively monitors your work and flags any deviations from established drafting standards in real-time, preventing costly errors before they happen.
• Customisable Rule & Style Configuration: Tailor every aspect of the automation process. Define your own rules for dimensioning, layering, text styles, and more to perfectly match your unique workflow and standards.
• Seamless CAD Platform Integration: Functions as a lightweight, non-intrusive plugin within your primary CAD software, providing a native experience without disrupting your established workflow.
