Turn your SketchUp models into spatial solutions, in minutes, with JigSpace

Explore how Jigs transform SketchUp models into immersive spatial solutions, revolutionizing design, collaboration, and client engagement.

How JigSpace works

SketchUp is a 3D modeling software used by architects and designers for creating buildings and interiors. JigSpace seamlessly transforms SketchUp models into interactive 3D presentations and immersive augmented reality experiences—what we call 'Jigs.'Jigs turn complex ideas into unforgettable experiences, whether you're showcasing a new architectural concept, streamlining client presentations, or training teams on intricate spatial designs.
