Built for Home Builders
Residential construction has become one of the most compliance-heavy sectors in the building industry. Setbacks, overlays, drainage, site engineering, and council-specific controls all shape what can be built, and getting any of them wrong costs time and money. uDrew gives home builders site intelligence, compliant design tools, and customer-ready presentation in one connected platform, so every project starts with accurate information and moves to approval without the delays that come from finding problems too late.
Three Tools. One Workflow.
uDrew gives home builders the ability to assess site feasibility, design compliant layouts, and present verified options to clients, all from one connected platform.
Enter any property address and uDrew OnSite surfaces exactly what you need to know: setbacks, easements, overlays, drainage, soil types, site classification, wind ratings, and council-specific conditions. Only uDrew instantly calculates the site engineering and design criteria that normally take days to commission, geotechnical conditions, wind ratings, corrosion categories, AHD ground levels, and utility depths. No manual research. No calls to council. No assumptions. Every design decision that follows is grounded in verified data from the first day of the project.
uDrew Studio takes the site intelligence from OnSite and turns it into a working design environment. Lay out the home, adjust the footprint, and get live compliance feedback as you go. When the design is finalised, the council-ready information is already consolidated, with no separate compliance review, no additional formatting, and no extra steps between a completed design and a submitted application.
uDrew Connect turns your website, display centre, and expo stand into lead generation engines. Customers place home designs on their own property in real time, moving from interest to intent before your team has made a single call. Connect Live captures every website interaction. Connect Display powers your showroom and expo experience. Connect Intelligence shows you what’s working. Leads arrive warm, informed, and ready to commit.
Hear It From the Trades
The builders and retailers who use uDrew aren’t just working more efficiently, they’re winning projects they would otherwise have lost. uDrew puts the kind of planning intelligence that was previously only available to large developers with dedicated resources into the hands of every builder, installer, and retailer who wants to run a sharper, faster, more professional business.
Results that deliver
Home builders who use uDrew don’t just reduce approval delays, they walk into every client meeting with a level of preparation that sets them apart from every competitor still doing it manually.
Builders using uDrew report significantly fewer council resubmissions, with compliance validated at the design stage rather than discovered at lodgement.
Eliminate manual site research and desktop study time. uDrew users report saving 2 to 4 hours per project on feasibility and compliance preparation alone.
Confirm setbacks, overlays, access conditions, site engineering, and geotechnical data remotely before setting foot on the property, saving time, fuel, and resources across every project.
Site data, designs, and customer presentations all in one place, with no duplication between stages.
FAQs
Everything you need to know about site planning, compliance, and how uDrew fits into a home building business.
Yes. Every design created in uDrew Studio is automatically validated against the relevant planning rules as it’s built. When the design is finalised, the documentation is council-ready and formatted for submission, with no separate compliance review or additional formatting step required.
uDrew Connect lets buyers explore a compliant home design placed on their actual land, with accurate setbacks and real site dimensions, before they’ve committed to anything. Connect Display brings this to your display centre or expo stand as an interactive experience. Connect Live puts it on your website so leads arrive already engaged. Buyers who can picture the outcome on their own property make decisions faster and with greater confidence.
Yes. uDrew OnSite automatically checks and applies the setbacks, overlays, easements, and drainage requirements relevant to each specific property. Those constraints carry through into uDrew Studio, so every design adjustment is validated against what actually applies to that site.
Yes. uDrew supports multiple concurrent projects within the same platform, with each property’s site data and design kept separate and accessible. Consistent workflows and reliable compliance data apply regardless of council area or project location.
Most planning tools handle one part of the workflow. uDrew connects site feasibility, compliant design, and customer-facing presentation in a single platform, but that’s only part of the story. uDrew is the only platform in the world that instantly and accurately calculates site engineering and design criteria, including geotechnical conditions, site classifications, wind ratings, and corrosion categories. Add spot AHD ground levels, utility depths, and council overlays, and your team has everything needed to quote accurately and design with confidence before a site visit has even been considered. No more waiting on engineers. No more assumptions about ground conditions. No more quotes that blow out once the real site data comes in. The information that used to take days and thousands of dollars to commission is available the moment you enter an address.
