Hi guys, it took us a while to get it right but it works great. PlusSpec is now available for SketchUp 19…

Yes it is subscription based but it is fast,powerful and it will halve your drawing time. The upgrade is free to existing users. 
You can find out more on the PlusSpec website. Thanks to those of you who reached out to find out when the latest version would be available, I hope this answers your questions.

BTW I actually designed, estimated and built this home, that is not a render. Nothing but Sketchup, layout and PlusSpec.
Just thought I would chime in here and give more information on the release.
This is the first big update for 2019, and we’ve focused on speed, because every second counts, right?!
All of the PlusSpec dialogs have been supercharged to open a lot faster. This will be a huge time saver! So, if you ever used PlusSpec previously but weren’t too keen on the dialog load times - it’s time to take another look, because we’re now faster than Speedy Gonzales!

Is design plus build robust enough for a serious commercial project with the need to interact and collaborate with dozens of people on the same file?
Hi Braden, PlusDesignBuild will handle everything that Sketchup can manage and in many cases, it expands what can be done with Sketchup, therefore larger projects can be created by less experienced operators on lower spec computers. Why? because we optimise the geometry and materials according to what is being drawn.
I personally would not document a detailed airport or a hospital using Sketchup, well not in one file anyway.
Braden, it really depends on what your interpretation of Serious is. It will also depend on your expectations, hardware and Sketchup skillset. I would say the best thing you could do is to book a one on one demo on the website, it’s free and we are not salespeople we are designers, estimators, project managers, engineers and builders.
PlusSpec and PlusDesignBuild have been developed for residential construction primarily, in saying this
we do have several clients who create large commercial projects and they use them for problem-solving, collaboration, estimating and 2D documentation.
See the images below.
will give you an idea of scale:
