Traditional workflow
- Drawings, spreadsheets and messages kept in separate files
- The same dimensions typed again for every document
- Lists and estimates drift out of sync with the design
- Changes are hard to trace and easy to miss
MODELONCE for SketchUp 2026
One 3D model. One source of data. One continuous workflow.
MODELONCE connects your 3D model to design, engineering, shop drawings, materials, quantities and cost estimates, so what you model once keeps working across the whole project.
Brand philosophy
Most projects run on a dozen disconnected files. MODELONCE treats the 3D model as the single source of truth: every drawing, list and estimate is read from it.
Connected workflow
Eight stages, one source. Select a stage to see what MODELONCE does with your model today.
Model the space and its furniture in SketchUp 2026, choose the project type, then list the rooms and outline them directly on the model.
A guided Project window with 8 steps; rooms with names, areas and ceiling heights; furniture assigned to rooms with item codes.
Place switches, sockets, lamps, water points, pipes and air-conditioning as real 3D objects, and compare route options before you commit.
Pipe routes compared by length, elbows and slope; circuits suggested by room; a conduit route chosen for each box. Sizes, breakers and cables stay your decision: MODELONCE documents them, it does not replace an engineer.
The drawing set is built from the model: layout, ceiling, electrical, plumbing and air-conditioning sheets, with sheet codes and title blocks.
Sheets grouped into architecture, electrical & plumbing and estimate sections, each with a cover; only the affected sheets are rebuilt when the model changes; export to PDF, DXF and HTML.
Cabinets and furniture become production drawings the workshop can build from.
Projections, sections, panel lists, per-panel details, joint and drilling sheets, auto-aligned page layouts and sheets for loose items.
Panels, hardware and components are counted from what was actually modelled.
Panel lists with edge banding and grain, a CSV cut list for saws and CNC, hardware from confirmed joints, ceiling framing counts, electrical materials and pipe-fitting tables.
Quantities for each work item, measured from the model instead of by hand.
Quantities per category already feed the estimate overview. A complete, project-wide bill of quantities is in development.
Unit prices you enter are applied to quantities taken from the model.
An estimate overview with budget, categories and unit prices saved on your machine for the next project, plus an A4 summary for the homeowner. MODELONCE never sets prices for you.
Installation documents and progress tracking for the people who build the project.
Wall-chasing and installation elevations, a construction schedule, progress, and milestone confirmations from homeowner, supervisor and contractor, recorded in the extension. A shared web portal is planned.
How it works
Build your 3D model in SketchUp 2026 the way you already work.
Classify walls, floors, ceilings and doors, outline rooms and assign furniture, guided step by step.
Produce drawing sets, shop drawings, lists and estimates directly from the model.
Change the model and keep the documents in sync; follow the schedule and progress.
Features
Each capability reads from the same model. Status labels show what you can use today.
Walls, floors, ceilings and doors recognised from the model; rooms and furniture organised with codes.
Complete drawing sets with sheet codes, title blocks and PDF, DXF or HTML export.
Cabinet and furniture drawings generated from the model, ready for the workshop to review.
Electrical, plumbing and air-conditioning placed in 3D and drawn on their own sheets.
Panel lists, cut lists, hardware and framing counts taken from the model.
Project-wide quantities for every work item, measured from the model.
Your unit prices applied to the model’s quantities, with a clear overview for the client.
Guided steps, schedule and progress inside the extension.

Use case
Model a kitchen cabinet once. MODELONCE reads it for every document that follows.
Overall dimensionsAvailable
Width, depth and height read from the model.
Component breakdownAvailable
Every panel identified with its name, size and thickness.
Panel detailsAvailable
A detail drawing for each panel.
Shop DrawingAvailable
Projections, sections and dimensions on aligned pages.
MaterialsAvailable
Material per panel, with edge banding and grain suggested for review.
HardwareAvailable
Hinges, cams, dowels and screws from the joints you confirm.
BOMAvailable
Panel list and a CSV cut list for saws and CNC.
BOQIn development
Furniture quantities inside a project-wide BOQ.
Cost estimateAvailable
Your unit prices applied in the estimate overview.
Create the Model Once.
Let the Data Work Across the Project.
Edge banding and grain are suggestions; joints and hardware are counted only after you confirm them.

Why MODELONCE
Dimensions, codes and quantities are read from the model instead of being typed again for each document.
Drawings, lists and estimates come from the same model, so they stay consistent with each other.
When the model changes, only the sheets that depend on it are rebuilt.
Workshops get panel lists and drilling sheets; site teams get installation and wall-chasing elevations.
Values that still need a decision are flagged on the sheets as “not selected” or “needs confirmation”.
Unit prices, title blocks and model libraries are saved on your machine for the next project.
Product preview
MODELONCE works inside the modeling environment you already use. The Project window guides each step while the viewport stays free for the model.
Turn it into drawings, lists, estimates and a workflow your whole team can follow.
