Auto-updating documentation, powered by your Onshape designs

Today we are announcing our integration with Onshape. You can find the Quarter20 plug-in today on the Onshape app store. 

At Quarter20, we believe the 3D model should be the backbone of how hardware companies build, manufacture, and support products. Not “a file someone exports,” not “a screenshot someone pasted,” but the living source of truth—geometry, metadata, configurations, revisions, and intent.

And yet, even in companies working toward model-based definition, there’s one place the digital thread still breaks all the time: human-facing documentation.

Work instructions, SOPs, service guides, quality checklists, installation manuals, maintenance guides, parts catalogs….these are the artifacts people actually use day-to-day on the shop floor, in the field, in supplier collaboration, yet they are often the least connected to engineering truth.

That’s why we built an Onshape plugin. Onshape teams share a mindset we love: they’re building for collaboration, speed, and traceability.

In other words, Onshape users care about the digital thread—and aren’t satisfied with today’s disconnected systems.

For the month of April, we are offering free trials to all Onshape users. Reach out to hello@buildquarter20.com to get started today.
