1111 Studios
1111 Studios takes the takeoffs, estimating, quoting, and production paperwork off your plate, for the shops that fabricate and finish architectural metal. No CAD, no busywork, and you approve every number.
No CAD. No training. No IT department. If you can send an email, you can run it.
What every platform shares
Whatever your shop does, the same idea runs underneath it: the software handles the tedious part, and hands you back the one job only you can do, making sure it's right.
Every job you approve teaches it your parts, your prices, and your standards. The more you run, the sharper it gets. It never stops learning, and it never forgets.
Nothing leaves the building without your sign-off. There's a human gate at every step. The software does the grunt work, you make the calls, always.
It reads the drawings, runs the numbers, and builds the paperwork. Your job shrinks to the part that matters: looking it over and confirming it's accurate.
How it works
However the job walks in the door, we meet it there. No file conversions, no special format, no learning curve.
A sketch, a PDF, an email, a field measurement, even a photo of a hand drawing. However it comes in.
Parts, counts, dimensions, and a quote your customer can e-sign, in minutes instead of days.
Look it over, fix anything, sign off. You are always the last word before it goes out.
Production paperwork, paint tickets, the invoice, and the hand-off to your CRM. Sent to the floor.
See it on a real job
Here's what happens when an architectural metal job hits the system, the same work your shop runs every week. You stay in control at the end.
Illustrative walkthrough of the flow. At a demo we run it on one of your own jobs and show you the real numbers.
The platforms
Most fab shops don't paint. Most paint shops don't fab. So the work splits into two platforms that stand on their own, or click together into one line from raw metal to finished and out the door.
For the shops that cut, form, and fabricate. Send it the drawings and it reads the job, prices it, builds your production package, and drops the invoice. Connects to your CRM, like Odoo.
Explore VFS →For the finishers. A whole industry paints metal and never touches a brake. VPS runs the paint side on its own: color and batch, coverage and cost, scheduling, and billing.
Explore VPS →Who it's for
Built with real shops, for the people who would rather be on the floor than stuck in front of a computer. If you have been quoting off a spreadsheet and re-typing everything three times, this is for you.
"It does the part I hate, and leaves me the part I'm good at."
You have spent years learning how to price and build these jobs right. This doesn't replace that. It clears the busywork out of the way so your experience is what the whole thing runs on.
From the founder
I spent years in glazing and metal, watching good shops bleed hours into takeoffs, estimating, and paperwork nobody wants to do. So I built 1111 Studios to hand that grunt work to software and give your people their day back. The software does the busywork. You still approve every number that goes out the door.
Bryan, founder

There is more being built for the people who glaze, clad, and build. We are not ready to show it yet. Keep an eye on this space.
Questions shops ask
No. Send a PDF, a sketch, an email, or a photo of a hand drawing. If you can send an email, you can run it.
Yes. Your parts, prices, and standards are yours. Nothing gets shared with other shops.
No. It does the busywork and hands the judgment back to your people. You sign off on everything.
Yes. It learns your parts, prices, and standards, and gets sharper every job.
Depends on your shop and the modules you run. Book a demo and we will put real numbers to your work.
Run VFS for fabrication, VPS for finishing, or both together. Take only what your shop needs.
Send a job you have already quoted. We will run it through and show you what comes back, no commitment.
