Draft technical plans
Plans, elevations, and sections, drawn precisely and styled exactly how you want them.
Every line, hatch, and annotation follows your standards, so the drawings look like your studio's work from the first click.
Architectural practice
without the compromise.
Architecture Studio
Work together in real time
No more merging files or searching for the latest version across email and folders.
Your studio drafts on one shared drawing in real time, with comments and markups built in.
Client-ready presentations
Your technical drawing becomes the presentation, with no rebuilding in another tool.
Add materials, shadows, and renders, then share a client-ready presentation with a single click.
Questions architecture studio ask before getting started.
Does Synaps replace our existing CAD tool for issue sets?
Most studios run Synaps alongside their existing CAD for now. Synaps is fastest from sketch through SD and DD, once geometry is locked, you can export DXF/PDF into your CD tooling or keep refining inside Synaps. We are extending issue-set support release by release.
Can a four-person studio share one workspace without seat lock-in?
Yes. Studios pay per active editor on the project, not per seat. A reviewing partner, a visiting consultant, or a part-time intern can read and comment without an editor seat. You can promote and demote editor access per project, per phase.
How does version control work when two architects are on the same plan?
Edits are merged live, like a multiplayer document. Each change is timestamped and attributable. You can roll back any element to a previous edit without rolling back the whole drawing, and named snapshots let you tag "submitted for planning" or "client review v3".
What happens to fee proposals, schedules, and presentation decks?
They live in the same workspace. Pull a hero plan into a proposal page, drop in your fee structure, and the client sees the same drawing language across the engagement instead of a translated slide.
