Services

The plugin your
company needs
but nobody sells.

Every company repeats drafting jobs no product will ever cover, because they are specific to how it works. We build those as proper AutoCAD® plugins, and train the people who use them.

What we do

Two ways to work together.

Custom plugin development

Every company has a handful of jobs nobody automated because they were too specific to sell as a product. Those are the ones worth building. We scope the work, quote a fixed price, and deliver a plugin that installs and behaves like the ones already in the MD Automation tab.

  • Fixed-price written quote and a services contract signed before work begins. Any change of scope gets a new quote.
  • Native ribbon, right-click and command-line integration
  • A clean single undo, like every native AutoCAD command
  • The code written for your project is yours on delivery and full payment. Our pre-existing tools and libraries remain ours; you receive a perpetual, royalty-free license to use them with the delivered tool.
  • Fixes for AutoCAD software updates for a period set in your contract (typically 12 months)
  • Ongoing maintenance available afterwards, bought as a pool of hours

Team training

A live online session for your drafters on getting real speed out of the MD plugins: the pick-first workflows, the keyboard paths, and the settings worth changing on day one. Recorded, so the person who joins next month gets the same session.

  • Two hours live online, for up to 10 people
  • Built around your drawings, not a generic demo
  • Recording and a short command reference to keep
  • Follow-up questions by email for two weeks after

In practice

The kind of thing worth building.

If your team does it more than once a week and it takes more than a minute, it is probably worth a command.

  • Drawing setup and standards

    One command that applies your title block, layer standard, text styles and plot settings to a new sheet, instead of a checklist nobody follows exactly.

  • Batch work across many drawings

    Renaming, purging, re-linking references, or applying the same change across a folder of drawings without opening each one by hand.

  • Data in and out

    Pulling block attributes into a schedule, pushing a spreadsheet back into the drawing, or generating a bill of materials that matches what is actually drawn.

  • The tool you already described to us

    Most companies already know exactly what they want. If you can describe it in a sentence and a sketch, that is enough to quote it.

  • 5 plugins shipping today
  • 21 shipped commands
  • Managed .NET 8 and .NET 10, built for AutoCAD 2025+ software

Prices in Canadian dollars, taxes extra. The scoping call is free and carries no obligation: if the work is not worth doing, we will say so.

Custom services are governed by your services contract and by the Terms, s. 8.

How it works

From a phone call to a working command.

  1. A call, at no cost

    Half an hour on what your team repeats and where the time goes. You do not need a specification: a description and a screenshot is plenty.

  2. A written, fixed quote

    A short document: what the command will do, what it will not do, what it costs and when it lands. Fixed-price written quote and a services contract signed before work begins. Any change of scope gets a new quote.

  3. Built, and put in your hands early

    You get a working installer well before the end, so the people who will actually use it can say what is wrong while it is still cheap to change.

  4. Handed over properly

    An installer, a short written reference and the source code. The code written for your project is yours on delivery and full payment. Optional training for the team, and maintenance afterwards if you want it.

Questions

Before you write.

Do we own the code?

The code written for your project is assigned to you on delivery and full payment: you may modify it, give it to another developer or bring it in-house. Our pre-existing tools, libraries and components, and general improvements to them, remain ours; you receive a perpetual, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use them with the delivered tool. The services contract sets out the details.

How long does a project take?

A single command is usually two to three weeks from agreed quote to installer. A larger set of tools runs longer, and the quote says exactly how long before you commit to anything.

What happens when AutoCAD software updates?

Your contract sets a period, typically 12 months, during which we fix the delivered tool at no charge if a new AutoCAD version stops it from working. After that, maintenance is available as a pool of hours.

Can you work with our existing tools?

Usually. If you already have AutoLISP, VBA or .NET tooling, a new plugin can sit alongside it. Rewriting the old tooling is a separate conversation; sometimes it is worth it and sometimes it very much is not, and we will tell you which.

Do you sign NDAs?

Yes. Non-disclosure agreement signed on request (yours or ours).

Is the training only about your plugins?

The session is built around the MD plugins and how to get real speed out of them, using your own drawings rather than a generic demo. If your team wants broader productivity coaching on AutoCAD software, say so when you write and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right fit.

Can we move a booked training session?

A booked training session can be moved at no charge with at least five business days' notice (Terms, s. 8.4).

Where are you, and does it matter?

Québec, Canada. Work is remote: calls, screen sharing and email, which is how AutoCAD plugin development goes regardless. Both English and French, whichever your team prefers.
