The lighting designer · live 3D
Design the room. Watch it light up.
Paint the walls, place the downlights, set the warmth — and watch the lux climb. The same 3D designer your team uses to sell the look and prove the light levels before a cable's pulled.

The operator
By now the job's done. You touched it twice.
Everything else ran underneath — quietly, in one system. No spreadsheets emailed around. No status lost between apps.
AI co-pilot, everywhere
Margin heatmaps, scope checks, revision diffs — suggestions in-line, not a chatbot bolted on the side.
Offline field apps
Site measures and install sign-offs on a phone, with photos and a queue that syncs when signal returns.
Public tender pipeline
Ingest, score and pursue tenders — with competitor tracking and win/loss analytics.
Audited end to end
Every state change logged with who, when and what changed — a full activity trail per entity.
Secure & multi-tenant
Secure by default — segregated per-customer data, role-based access, and dedicated databases for the customers who need them.
Industries
One engine. Built for how you build.
The prompts, taxonomy, BOM categories, validators and QC gates all adapt to your trade. Two verticals are live today — the engine is built to add more.
Steel & glass fabrication
Balustrades, handrails, privacy screens, gates and stairs — profile-aware take-off, cutlists, powdercoat and glass POs, and QC gates tuned to the shop floor.

Electrical & smart wiring
Structured cabling, Wi-Fi coverage, PoE and switchboard circuits, plus 3D lighting design with real luminaires and glow — device and appliance libraries, coverage planning and AU/NZ standards checks built into the take-off.
