For steel furniture manufacturers

Your catalogue already knows how to calculate rooms.

Every card with dimensions is an object ready for a plan. A buyer describes a store room or a locker room; the calculation takes your items, places them in the room by the rules and returns 3D, a specification and a quote.

We don't name the factories: these are manufacturers' catalogues shown together. In a pilot the planner calculates on your catalogue only. Data as of 04/11/2026.

Products from the field moved into blocks by kind, each with a label and a count

Sheet 2/7

The field sorts itself by kind

The same field, the same 2,948 products. The kind comes from a rule in the catalogue profile, not from someone sorting by hand.

2,879 cards have a model whose size matches the card: 0 mismatches. 783 have no model yet, mostly accessories; they stay out of plans and stand pale.

Hover or tap a product to see its dimensions from the card.

Most of the field has gone dark, the chosen shelving cards stay orange, sections fly over the store room

Sheet 3/7Synthetic example

A request: a 12 × 8 m store room. Everything else goes dark

300 m of shelves, crates at 150 kg per shelf, pallet truck on the main aisle only.

In this catalogue, cards that carry the load: 142; of those, right depth: 138; right height: 138. The calculation picks 3 cards, which make 29 sections.

Store room plan from above: shelving rows, green aisles with sizes, the strip from the door

Sheet 4/7Synthetic example

Each section in its place

Capacity 301 m against a need of 300. The aisle is measured between placed products: 1,867 mm against a minimum of 800 mm (NPAOP 0.00-1.75-15, section II, ch. 4, cl. 18; calculated for the Ukrainian market).

The calculation names its own weak spot: only 239.4 m are useful, because shelf ends stay empty.

Sheet 5/7Illustrative model

The same catalogue, from the inside

The box from the field splits into 745 parts: posts, shelves, lips. The buyer turns this in a browser and clicks a product.

What the factory's site doesn't state is labelled: the outer size comes from the card, the inner parts are the model's assumptions.

Locker room in perspective: six rows of lockers with benches, green aisles, a window

Sheet 6/7Synthetic example

Another request, another room

60 workers, process group 1b: 2 compartments per person, 120 in all (DBN V.2.2-28:2010, Table 4, rows 1b, 2a, 2b; Ukrainian market). That makes 60 lockers and 60 benches.

Aisle 1,650 mm against a minimum of 1,400 mm (DBN V.2.2-28:2010, cl. 5.2.1.2, Table 3). The total exceeds the 400,000 UAH budget and the calculation says so outright: it doesn't fudge.

Sheet 7/7Synthetic examples

2 requests, 5 cards, no change to the catalogue

Only the request changed. The calculation works the same way for a workshop, an archive and a server room, if the catalogue has those groups.

For the buyer it's a priced plan before the first call. For you it's an enquiry that already holds the room, the items and the total.

What the factory gets

Five things from one calculation. Below are real results of the two examples, not mock-ups.

01

Plan

The layout in the room: door, aisles, each aisle's width beside the rule. If it doesn't fit, a refusal with the reason in millimetres and options, no fudging.

The room in a browser: rotate it, near walls hide themselves, click a product to see its card. Aisles and rules switch on separately.

Specification

Lines by item code: quantity, price on a date, total. “Price on request” stays separate, outside the total.

A widget on your site

The planner in your catalogue section, with one line. The buyer gets a numbered plan and takes it to your manager.

<script src="https://widget-<slug>.furnigen.app/embed.js"
        data-room="warehouse" async></script>

Slug is a short name for your catalogue. It embeds only on your domains. There's no end-to-end CRM integration yet.

A 3-month pilot: before and after

We put the widget on one section of your site and count. At the end we decide together: continue on subscription, move to a dealership or licence, or stop.

  1. Before startYour 3-month baseline; we build the catalogue and check 20 cards against the site
  2. Month 1The embed line on the section's pages; a short report
  3. Month 2Event log and enquiries by plan number; a short report
  4. Month 3Before / after report and the decision; no automatic renewal

What we do

  • Build the catalogue of your groups and check 20 cards against the site
  • Give you the embed line, for your domains only
  • Keep an event log without IP addresses, names or contacts; send a monthly report

What you do

  • Give a 3-month baseline and the same data afterwards
  • Put the line on the section's pages
  • Name the manager who receives enquiries

What we don't promise

  • Sales growth in numbers: that's what the pilot is for
  • An exact final price: the planner shows the site price on a date
  • An expert opinion: the rules are for reference, with the clause

No pilot has finished yet, so there are no before / after numbers here. The first will come from yours or someone else's. We discuss the pilot's cost in person.

Alongside the pilot we offer a dealership: selling your products as complete rooms. That's a separate contract on your terms. We use your mark and style only with written consent.

What it can't do yet

Where these numbers come from

No number here is typed by hand: a script exports them from the project itself, and the scene reads the same files. Export of 04/11/2026.
