TheBuildOut
Design optimized warehouse layouts in minutes
No CAD skills required. No steep learning curves. Just drag, drop, and click your way to designing smarter storage systems — instantly.
What is it?
TheBuildOut is a user-friendly design tool for laying out warehouse spaces. Just draw your building, set your column spacing, and add a fully-optimized racking system with a single click. Drag areas around, stretch them and watch as the pallet rack automatically wraps around offices, obstructions, and building features all while instantaneously updating pallet position and carton counts.
But we already use CAD
Great, you should. CAD's awesome. But let's be honest, your design team is swamped - and who has time for that 6 week long tutorial? TBO is made to complement CAD; it's powerful enough for professional designers, but made for everyone else. That means you can have meaningful conversations with your customers on the spot without waiting 48 hours for your busy design team to crank out drawings. And when you're done collaborating, just export your layout to DXF and hand it off to your design team to cross the t's and dot the i's in your favorite CAD software.
Do you love spreadsheets?
Honestly, we do. But we know most people don't. And using them to calculate pallet positions, pick faces, and bills of material is a real pain. And just when you think you've got it right, you have to start all over again because the customer wants to see a narrower aisle, or decided to lease a completely different building. TBO does the counting for you. Every time you change an elevation, add a tunnel, or extend a row you get updated counts instantaneously.
Look how easy it is
1. Draw your warehouse
2. Optimize layout with a click
3. Export a full report
Who is it for?
We built it for everyone. Heck, my kids use it as a doodling tool because they think it's fun. But it can really level-up your life if you're
- A commercial real estate broker. What if you could open an AI chat and ask: "Steve needs to store 35,000 pallet positions. He uses 55" tall pallets and needs an 8ft aisle. Which buildings should I show him?" And the answer you get is not just a list of buildings that are guaranteed to meet Steve's requirements, but also a beautifully rendered PDF of each building showing a fully optimized rack layout? Well, stop imagining.
- A leasing agent or landlord. Ever have a client come into your building and ask how many pallets they can store? Of course you have. Now you can answer them on the spot with a fully customized layout specific to their needs.
- An integrator. Give your salespeople the edge they need to close deals faster. Virtually eliminate back and forth with your client and get them a quote that same day.
- An industrial engineer working for a 3PL. Stop guessing on RFPs. Move existing clients around with our drag and drop interface and get answers to all of your capacity questions instantly. Square footage used per client? We got you. Pallet positions per area? We got you. Floor storage or staging capacity? We got you. You might as well throw your calculator away.
