Designer is AV system design software for integrators. One device list per project produces every sheet in the drawing set: pin-level wiring diagrams, rack elevations, floor plans, patch bays and wire schedules. When the design changes, the drawings change with it, so the rack, the port map and the cable schedule never drift apart.
Every block in a drawing carries real product data: ports, connector types, rack units, power and weight. Start a project from the equipment list you already have, a ConnectWise opportunity or an Excel spreadsheet, and devices are matched against the Wirings catalog of 2,000+ checked products. Free generic blocks fill in when there’s no exact model. When a spec is missing, AI looks it up and you review each field before it’s applied.
Rack elevations total watts, BTU/hr, weight and rack units as you place gear, including shelves, half-width equipment and any rack size up to 60U. Floor plans go on the architect’s DWG, DXF, PDF or image at real scale, with device symbols, labeled cable runs and a legend that counts itself. Patch a run of panel ports onto a switch in one drag and the wire schedule already has the rows. Export drawings to AutoCAD DXF, or print the whole set as one PDF package with title blocks and revision history.
AI Chat has read every drawing, wire and device in the project. It answers questions from the design, builds the wire pull sheet and the install task list from what you drew, and reads ConnectWise service tickets against the design. Nothing it proposes is applied until you approve it. After handover, share read-only links with installers and subcontractors so they can mark devices installed from their phones. Your helpdesk AI, such as Sightline, can look up equipment, IPs and connections through a read-only API or MCP endpoint.
Designer runs in the browser, with no CAD seat required. Start with a 14-day free trial.
