RAP develops custom CAD commands, plugins, applications and workflow solutions for engineering companies, CAD software vendors and technology organizations.
We leverage deep native APIs to automate repetitive drafting tasks, enforce drafting standards, and connect CAD models directly with enterprise databases.
Deep development using C#/.NET, ObjectARX (C++), AutoLISP, Visual LISP, and DCL dialogs. Custom command creation, drawing validation, and Excel-to-CAD sync.
View AutoCAD Services →C#/.NET API development, BRX/DRX modules, and LISP routines. Entity manipulation, block attribute automation, and legacy plugin modernization.
View BricsCAD Services →Tailored LISP programming, API integration, and custom command development for IntelliCAD-based platforms and OEM solutions.
View IntelliCAD Services →Beyond internal productivity macros, RAP Technologies architects and builds complete commercial-grade CAD plugins, industry engineering extensions, and Bluebeam PDF takeoff toolsets from core algorithmic design to global release.
CADdirekt (Sweden) is a market-leading commercial provider of specialized engineering software suites for Nordic architecture, electrical systems, fire protection, and HVAC installation. RAP Technologies serves as their specialized product development and software engineering partner, continuously engineering their 2026 flagship line across DWG and Bluebeam environments.
Complete Swedish fire safety and evacuation drafting solution. Features compliant symbol libraries, automatic escape route distance tracing, and fire boundary zoning.
Full-cycle electrical drafting application. Automates power distribution schematics, conduit paths, luminaire layouts, circuit numbering, and automated panel schedules.
Structured cabling and telecommunications infrastructure plugin. Automates server rack elevations, RJ-45 port numbering, patch schedules, and fiber pathway layouts.
Parametric HVAC and plumbing engineering suite. Supports 2D/3D ductwork and piping design, automatic valve sizing, airflow calculations, and instant BOM takeoff.
Worksite disposition planning toolset for Bluebeam. Enables drag-and-drop crane radiuses, access roads, materials storage zones, and worker safety boundaries.
Traffic arrangement and road safety planning extension. Pre-configured with official Swedish Transport Administration symbols, barricades, detour signs, and buffers.
Fire alarm takeoff and verification profile. Features intelligent counting tools for smoke, thermal, and optical detectors with automatic cable loop distance calculations.
Fire protection equipment takeoff tool set. Includes standard markups for fire extinguishers, hose cabinets, fire blankets, gas extinguishing systems, and evacuation signage.
Physical security and access control estimation suite. Facilitates CCTV camera angle visualizers, PIR motion sensors, card readers, electric locks, and alarm zones.
Comprehensive electrical quantity takeoff toolset. Quickly measures linear cable tray lengths, counts light switches, sockets, and distribution boxes with automatic price linking.
Renewable energy estimation toolset. Specializes in rooftop photovoltaic panel array takeoffs, string cabling, solar inverter sizing areas, and wind turbine layout schematics.
Heating, ventilation, and sanitation takeoff profile. Accurately measures duct lengths by diameter, pipe runs by material, air terminal counts, and sanitary appliance schedules.
Geothermal heating and cooling energy design toolset. Designed for ground-source borehole field layouts, manifold piping runs, and radiant floor heating loop measurement.
Architected for high-margin customization contracts (€1M+). We engineer standalone desktop suites, cross-platform plugins, cloud CAD automation, and live CAD-to-ERP backbones.
Standalone C# / WPF MVVM desktop applications, safe in-process CAD threading, and proprietary licensing engines.
Unified cross-CAD API across AutoCAD, BricsCAD, ZWCAD, GstarCAD, ARES, DraftSight, Inventor, and SolidWorks.
High-throughput shop drawing automation, multi-view generation, rule-based dimensioning, schedule filtering, and dual PDF/DWG export pipelines.
Headless Cloud Design Automation (running Revit, Inventor, AutoCAD in the cloud), Web 3D Viewers, and bidirectional synchronization.
Connecting CAD/BIM ecosystems directly with enterprise backbones-SAP S/4HANA, Salesforce, Teamcenter, and Windchill.
Rules-based 3D parametric assembly generation, dynamic block manipulation, and automated sales-to-manufacturing proposal generation.
Porting unmanaged C++/ObjectARX, legacy VBA, and LISP routines into modern, high-performance .NET and BricsCAD BRX assemblies.
Deep learning (YOLO) computer vision for engineering symbol recognition on scanned drawings, automated BOM/MTO extraction, and LLM-driven CAD agent tools.
Build and extend CAD workflows with Python. Develop plugins that work seamlessly across AutoCAD, BricsCAD and ZWCAD.
