Snaptrude: Collaborative 3D Building Design (Figma for Architects)

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to share Snaptrude with the community; we are a collaborative 3D building design tool. Snaptrude helps Architects design more efficient & sustainable buildings using real-world data (budget, compliance, climate, etc.) in 1/10th of the time through our automated 3D modeling. All this while collaborating with the internal team & external stakeholders in real-time. We have over 5K users that have modeled over 20 million sq. ft. of projects on Snaptrude.

Since the early days, we have been using babylonjs and thank this fantastic community for such an amazing project.

Absolutely loving the direction Snaptrude is heading in bringing a Figma-like collaborative model to architecture is a massive leap forward. The integration of real-world data like climate, budget, and compliance directly into the design process makes early-stage modelling far more meaningful and efficient. Real-time collaboration is something we’ve seen growing demand for, especially on multi-stakeholder projects where version control and transparency can become a headache.

At my workplace, we’ve worked on a variety of residential and mixed-use projects across the UK, and having tools that streamline spatial planning while factoring in sustainability from day one is a game-changer. Traditional BIM platforms can feel bloated or overly complex for early ideation, so Snaptrude’s lighter, responsive approach is refreshing.

Would love to see how this evolves further especially with Babylon.js behind it. Are there any upcoming features around urban context modelling or detailed compliance checking for UK-specific regs? Great work overall looking forward to seeing how this reshapes early design workflows.
