Geometry changes everything.
Geometry was the missing layer in AI.
We believe if you don’t own the geometry, you don’t own the outcome.
Now it’s obvious.
Text → Floorplans → CAD → Render
Made with @opengeometry, @threejs @GoogleAI

True curves are coming to @getploterr.
Curve any wall, slab, or ceiling in Plotter for you and your agents.
MEP is coming soon.

Ploterr is powered by @opengeometry kernel and @threejs
We're taking Construction on Autopilot.
Design to Draft using Ploterr agents.

Ploterr is the Harness.
Floorkit, MEPKit are the Tools.
OpenGeometry is the Core.
Everything is ready for you and your agents to design and draft buildings.
We're personally hosting Ploterr early previews for architects and construction firms.

Introducing Design Agents for Construction.
At @getploterr, we're building a workspace where agents do the heavy lifting while you stay in creative control.
Today, we ran another live preview of Ploterr.
We instructed agents, made design decisions along the way, and kept full control of the design.
10 minutes later, the entire space plan and layout was ready to export. All inside Ploterr, a single workspace where humans and agents design, edit, and collaborate.
Built on the foundations of @opengeometry, we're making design and construction faster without taking creative control away from designers.
Want to see Ploterr in action? Drop me a DM or join the waitlist at ploterr.com.

Ploterr is built on the foundations of @opengeometry.
OpenGeometry powers the geometry and provides the CAD and BIM capabilities for designing, editing, and creating drawings.
Together, they make it possible for humans and agents to work on the same design.

LinkedIn’s algorithm is a piece of shit.
Spend hours writing something thoughtful and original. Barely any impressions.
Someone makes up some bullshit story. Thousands of reactions.
At this point, LinkedIn isn’t rewarding good content. It’s rewarding good fiction.
Who knew writing a geometry kernel before ChatGPT came along would be this cool? 🤌
@opengeometry
knowledge of b-reps and cad geometry in general is a lost discipline
there are maybe a couple hundred people in the world who actually know it
most of them already retired or still working on the legacy kernels
nobody really learned it in the last 30 years because it was not cool
and the most interesting stuff just lives as tribal knowledge among those who actually built kernels before
Who's doing benchmarks for construction tech?
We've been seeing promising results in our internal AI evaluations at @getploterr.
Now, we want to test how well AI agents handle real-world architecture and construction tasks, especially creating and editing CAD models, BIM models, and drawings.
If you're working on this or know someone who is, tag them or drop a comment.
We'd love to connect.

We're announcing Playbooks by @getploterr.
It's week 2 of Floorkit, and Site Massing is our first playbook.
Playbooks are recipes for building apps with Floorkit. Each one brings together a working example, the implementation, and a brief you can give to your coding agent.
You know the questions your design process needs to answer. Use that expertise to decide what your app should do, while Floorkit supplies the editing, visualization, and drawing tools.
Try Site Massing APIs and inspect the recipe for your own app.
More playbooks. More toolkits.
What playbook would you want next?
#cad #design #architecture #agents
Want to build your own Site Massing app?
Open the playbook, copy the agent brief, and give it to your agent. Tell it whether you're building a standalone app or adding massing to an existing product.
The recipe targets planned Floorkit 1.2.0 APIs. Have your agent verify package support before building and testing locally.
docs.ploterr.com/floorkit/pl…
We write and maintain @opengeometry, the geometry kernel behind Floorkit.
Floorkit adds the editor, visualization, and technical drawings. Ploterr's Playbooks show how to use them to build your own apps, starting with Site Massing.

Looks like @opengeometry has got competition. And it’s NVIDIA.
Check out usd-brep by @nvidiaomniverse
They’re cooking, and we believe we are cooking harder and can take this even further.
That’s the fun of competition. The bar keeps rising, and when we build in the open, the whole industry gets more to build on.
Open source is the future of CAD. Seeing NVIDIA invest in a geometry kernel makes me even more confident in the direction we’ve taken.
Meanwhile, the CAD industry still has another subscription to sell you!
We are coming, and we will change that radically with @getploterr. Toolkits are already out, next is our app!
Let’s give people more to build with.
#cad #opengeometry #nvidia #design #architecture

Floorkit 1.1.0 is now ready for your agents.
In just one week, we’re already moving fast.
You and your agent should be able to inspect the design, adjust it, and undo changes. You should also be able to keep working on it yourself.
People and agents should work on the same saved building project.
This release includes 👇
Agent Commands
Batch Operations
Project Structure
Versioning
Your app brings the AI model. Floorkit provides the building tools and geometry.
#cad #architecture #geometry #design
Underneath Floorkit is @opengeometry kernel, our open-source CAD kernel for the browser.
We build and maintain it. Developers can use its geometry operations to build browser-based CAD apps and tools for their agents.

Floorkit is part of a bigger lineup we’re building at @getploterr. Many more toolkits are coming.
Sign up for Floorkit updates and follow along as we build what's next.
ploterr.com/floorkit/?utm_so…
Start by connecting your coding agent to Floorkit’s documentation MCP.
Give it the starter instructions and your app requirements so it can help you build with the public SDK.
The guide covers this setup and bringing an agent into your own app
docs.ploterr.com/floorkit/ag…
Let your agents build the next CAD app.
We released Floorkit this week, and someone already used an agent to help build their own CAD app with it. Humans and agents are both building with Floorkit.
@advancedcskills built a test app, manually traced architectural drawings, and made an editable model with scaled plans in a single afternoon.
You know what your workflow needs. We want to put the ability to build it in your hands. Let's see what we can create collectively.
Try Floorkit, give your agent the documentation and tell it what you want to build. It's that simple!
Let's see what unfolds. If you or your team is building a CAD app, this one's for you.
Built on @opengeometry. More toolkits are coming from the @getploterr family!

Want to build with Floorkit?
Start with the quick start and API reference, or give your agent the docs and tell it what you want to build.

Floorkit is a TypeScript toolkit for adding browser CAD authoring, model editing, and drawing sheets to your app.
Your app chooses the interface and workflow. Floorkit is built on the @opengeometry kernel, and more toolkits are coming.

@advancedcskills put Floorkit to the test, manually tracing architectural drawings into an editable model with scaled plans.
Here's what worked and what they're testing next.
