About Snaptrude
What is Snaptrude?
Snaptrude is an AI-native building information modeling (BIM) platform built for architects and designers. It replaces disconnected tools with a single workspace for site analysis, programming, massing, BIM, and presentation. From brief to BIM in one connected model, Snaptrude accelerates early-stage design while keeping your team in control.
Who is it for?
Snaptrude is ideal for architecture firms and design teams who need to move quickly from client briefs or RFPs to BIM-ready models. It's especially useful for concept design and schematic phases. It is not designed for construction documentation or structural engineering. Education users can get a free plan.
Key capabilities
Upload an RFP, describe your project, and attach a site — Snaptrude's AI helps generate programs, floorplans, and diagrams. Edit in 2D or 3D with live-linked tables. One-click mass-to-BIM conversion, furniture libraries, and direct export to Rhino and Revit with no data loss. Solar exposure analysis and area checks are built in.
Real-world use cases
Use Snaptrude to design a university library, a general hospital, or a mixed-use residential building. Firms such as leading architecture design studios rely on it to streamline presentations and client approvals.
Key features
- AI-assisted design generation — Describe your project or upload an RFP; AI creates programs, diagrams, and massing instantly.
- Live-linked program tables — Edit program data in spreadsheet view; your 3D model updates automatically.
- One-click mass to BIM — Convert early-stage massing into full BIM models with walls, floors, roofs, and more.
- Seamless Rhino & Revit export — Export .rvt files with no lost materials or broken geometry.
- AI orchestration — Ask, research, create, or render with AI that steps out of the way when you take over.
- Site analysis & area tools — Auto-create adjacencies, analyze solar exposure, and research building codes.
- Built-in object library — Import furniture or use Snaptrude's library to enrich your model.
