Built by an architect, for studios like ours.

Most BIM software is built for large offices. It is powerful, but clunky, and it fights you as soon as the work gets detailed. Architectural and interior details turn into workarounds. Ever modelled a table as a floor slab, then given it legs with the column tool?

Then there is the price. The complete tools are expensive, and the affordable ones leave things out. Yet a studio of one to ten people has to deliver the same drawings, schedules and models as a large office, often on an ordinary laptop and for a fraction of the fee.

MilliCAD is BIM for that studio. One model for architecture and interiors, where a table is a table: furniture, joinery and finishes have tools of their own instead of borrowed ones. You draw the way architects draw: click, type a distance, press Enter, with the settings in a side panel rather than a dialog over your work. The model is kept as IFC, so your work stays open, and MilliCAD speaks DWG, so the rest of the industry can read it.

We’re building it with studios in Indonesia and Southeast Asia first. Indonesian boards, finishes and service codes are already in the library, and the area statement checks a plot’s permit metrics.
