Staying ahead in homebuilding means working smarter, not harder. With evolving buyer demands, rising costs, and ongoing labor shortages, builders need solutions that streamline their processes without sacrificing quality. That’s exactly what Higharc is delivering.
In our latest webinar, What’s New at Higharc: AI, Automation, and Seamless Integrations, we unveiled groundbreaking innovations designed to help builders work more efficiently. From AI-powered home design to automated construction documentation and seamless ERP integrations, these new tools are transforming the way homes are designed, documented, and built.
Featuring insights from Carson Dallas (Product Manager), Inga Halkopion (Head of Config & Integrations), Peter Maffey (Staff Software Engineer), and Michael Bergen (Co-founder, VP of Product) this discussion explored how Higharc’s latest advancements are solving real-world challenges for builders today.
Live Plans - The Future of Construction Documentation
Managing and updating construction documents has traditionally been a time-consuming, manual process—but Live Plans is changing that. Carson Dallas introduced this new feature set, which dynamically updates construction documents in real time, eliminating inefficiencies and ensuring accuracy across every home plan.
“Change is inevitable in homebuilding, and documentation should keep up. Live Plans allows builders to centralize and standardize their drawing sets, making updates effortless and ensuring every plan is always accurate.” – Carson Dallas
Key benefits of Live Plans:
Centralized Design System – Maintain and update design and drawing standards in one place.
Automated Lot-Specific Documentation – Generate customized construction documents instantly.
Master Plan Standardization – Streamline updates across an entire portfolio of homes.
Real-Time Accuracy – No more duplicate files or outdated information—Live Plans keeps everything current.
Carson demonstrated how builders can leverage Live Plans to significantly reduce errors and increase efficiency in managing construction drawings. With seamless updates and dynamic customization, this tool is helping teams move faster without sacrificing quality.
ERP Integration - A Single Source of Truth
Data inconsistencies between sales, purchasing, and design tools slow down the entire homebuilding process. That’s why Higharc is introducing our ERP integration —allowing builders to connect their systems for better efficiency and fewer errors.
“Builders shouldn’t have to waste time double-entering data or fixing inconsistencies between systems. Our ERP integrations bridge the gap, ensuring your product data stays accurate and up to date—without the extra work.” – Inga Halkopion
With ERP integration Builders Can:
Automated Data Import – Sync pricing, options, and plan details directly from ERPs like MarkSystems, Hyphen BRIX, and SmartSheets.
Error Reduction – Say goodbye to manual entry mistakes and mismatched data.
Custom Data Mapping – Easily map your ERP fields to Higharc for a seamless transition.
In a live demo, Peter Maffey showcased how builders can upload ERP data, automatically map key fields, and update pricing across multiple communities in just a few clicks. This level of automation is removing friction from the homebuilding process and giving teams back valuable time.
Higharc AI - From Sketch to 3D Model in Seconds
Michael Bergen demonstrated one of the most exciting innovations in home design: Higharc AI, which converts rough sketches into detailed, build-ready 3D models.
“For the first time, builders can take a simple sketch and transform it into a fully functional 3D model—complete with rooms, windows, doors, and materials—all in seconds.” – Michael Bergen
Using Higharc AI, builders can:
Upload hand-drawn sketches or existing floor plans.
Automatically generate 3D models with intelligent room recognition.
Apply standardized building templates for fast, accurate iterations.
By eliminating the need for complex CAD work in the early design phase, Higharc AI can make home design more accessible and efficient for builders, designers, and sales teams alike.
Catch Up On the Action
Higharc’s latest innovations—Live Plans, ERP integrations, and Higharc AI—are designed to make homebuilding faster, more efficient, and less error-prone. By eliminating manual drafting, automating plan updates, and seamlessly connecting critical data across systems, these tools can help builders reduce complexity and focus on delivering high-quality homes.
