What you decide in week one is still there in week twelve. From brief to BIM, one continuous model.

Design softwares rarely reshape around your project needs. Here, an architect built this app with no code, for exactly their firm's projects. Built with the App Builder in Snaptrude.

You can now go from a finished multifamily design to a full pro forma, without leaving Snaptrude. MFR Configurator sets up the building, Pro Forma pulls the project data, you set your assumptions, and it builds a workbook with linked formulas. snaptrude.com/app-builder

Snaptrude's curated apps are built to work for everyone, which means they are not built for how your team works. Remix any of them into your own version. Your unit types, your standards, your rules. Private until you publish it to your team. snaptrude.com/app-builder

One app usually answers one question, then you're stuck rebuilding for the next one. With Remix, you just ask, and the same app answers a different question. No rebuild.

You count the units, then find out the parking doesn't fit, so you start over. An architect described that exact workflow in plain words and got a working app on his model. No code. App Builder is live in Snaptrude.

Test fits are pitch work. Fast, unpaid, and usually drawn twice. Point this app at a floor plate and you get the layout, three circulation options, a BIM model, and the sheets. Two days of work in one pass.

An architect built this multifamily configurator. Not a developer. He described the workflow in a prompt. App Builder made it. Unit mix, circulation, efficiency, cost, all connected to the model. What are you going to build next?

Every firm is unique. Now your software will be too. Today, we’re introducing Apps and App Builder in @Snaptrude. Everyone is asking: Can AI design? The jury is still out. But there is another question we can answer today: Can AI make design software adapt to the way you work? For decades, one design product was built for an entire industry. Firms with different methods, standards, and knowledge were expected to adapt to the same software. A Snaptrude App is a design workflow turned into software. It captures the inputs that matter, the rules your team follows, and the outcomes you need, all while operating directly on a connected building model. App Builder uses AI to help create these Apps. You describe the workflow and define the decisions and constraints. App Builder turns that knowledge into a purpose-built experience inside Snaptrude. Our AI Agent can suggest what to do. An App can execute a workflow. Our first two Apps, a multifamily configurator and a facade builder, are available to every Snaptrude user starting today. But the breakthrough is not that we shipped two more workflows. It is that we no longer have to decide which workflows every firm gets. We are not automating design decisions.  We are automating the execution of design decisions. The last generation of design software compelled every firm to adapt. The next generation will adapt the software to every firm. Apps are now live inside Snaptrude for all users. App Builder early access is now open. Link below to apply.

On a big project, spaces pile up fast. Departments, phases, floors, and no clean way to track what's what. In Snaptrude, every space carries its properties. Edit them live, tag by department or phase, and filter to find exactly the spaces you need.

Same model, as many reads as you need. Tag by phase, tenant, program, whatever the project needs, then view it through any of those lenses.

Program reviews always want a different data cut. Department, phase, tenant, all separate asks. You can now build a custom program sheet in Snaptrude: pick columns, group by department/story/phase, filter down, export as XLSX or PDF. Edits sync to the canvas automatically.

Most AI renderers ignore your geometry. You put in a carefully designed massing, and the output drifts, wrong proportions, invented details, a building that looks vaguely like yours but isn't. Nanobanana in Snaptrude works from your actual model. You're directing the mood and lighting, not correcting what the AI decided your building should look like.

Architects make a separate drawing every time someone needs a different read of the model. Phase plan. Tenant plan. Fire zone plan. AHU zones. In Snaptrude, it's all one model. Right-click, pick a tag category, done.

Your whole design process in one tool. Program, BIM, and now renders. These were made with Nanobanana, straight from a Snaptrude model. Try it at snaptrude.com

You can now place a room layout onto any space. The internal layout adjusts automatically to fit: walls anchor to the geometry, furniture preserves its wall relationship from the source.
