SketchUp to EpJSON: New Feature Testers

Over the next 6 months, Better Buildings will be rolling out various features as we track local changes to the National Construction Code, updates to the New Zealand Code, and some major new workflows for international markets, including the United States and Canada.

As we implement these features, we want to ensure they actually benefit your work. With that in mind, we're looking to formalise our user testing process and would love to hear from you.

In early November, we'll be updating our timeline, but until then, we're particularly keen to hear from folks with an interest in 3D modelling in SketchUp.

To date, we've been encouraging the use of the SketchUp OpenStudio plug-in as a useful way to export gbXML files. It's a solid plug-in, but we reckon we can do better by creating our own. This would provide improved saving facilities and create a more streamlined 3D workflow for your projects in 2026.

If you'd like to join our early access testing group, starting with our new SketchUp plug-in, simply drop your email address in the form below and we'll be in touch with further details.
