Subscription offerings, including monthly subscriptions, lower the barrier to entry, enabling a larger global audience to now access SketchUp. In addition to greater accessibility through the subscription model, Trimble has introduced a number of innovative products and features to bolster its offerings. The collaboration-centric, link-sharing feature allows users to share 3D models as easily as one can share a web URL. More than 650,000 users* have shared 1.7 million links since its launch, and 3.8 million users have opened those links. In addition to its popular desktop application, Trimble introduced the SketchUp for iPad application to its portfolio, enabling 'on the go' users to access SketchUp in the office, at a coffee shop or on the job site while also reaching new customers via the Apple App Store.
"We've found the subscription business model allows us to consistently deliver new features, services and integrations that empower our AEC customers to communicate design ideas better and work more efficiently and collaboratively with all stakeholders on a construction project," said Christopher Cronin, VP & GM, architecture, design and education at Trimble SketchUp. "The response from our customers to the lower up-front investment, reliable budgeting and consistent delivery of visualization, collaboration, interoperability and now, AI enhancements, have been key to us surpassing this milestone."
Trimble's delivery of new AI features and workflows is also fueling this growth. This includes SketchUp Diffusion [Labs], a Stable Diffusion-based generative AI service that uses a SketchUp model, text prompts or stylistic presets to generate images. It gives architects and designers more time for creative exploration and iteration, and has had more than 200,000 users and generated more than 13 million images since its launch in December 2023. Additionally, 3D Warehouse Image Search is an image-driven search function that uses AI to quickly sift through millions of pre-built models in SketchUp's 3D Warehouse to help users easily find the right products for their designs.
As part of the Trimble ecosystem of connected construction solutions, SketchUp is a starting point for 3D design and visual storytelling that can be utilized by all stakeholders, from concept through construction. The software is used across all project phases and by a wide variety of team members and technical skill sets.
