hellomob is a 3D furniture and woodworking design plugin for SketchUp. Its website highlights “universal, free modules integrated with Cortecloud.” It is not standalone CAD/CAM software; instead, it relies on the SketchUp modeling environment and connects custom furniture design with cutting, quoting, and outsourced production through a furniture module library, material configuration, and production data output.
Based on the information on the site, hellomob centers on modular cabinet and furniture design. Users can freely adjust the length, width, and height of each module, with an emphasis on millimeter-level dimensional accuracy. They can also assign panels, edge banding, different textures, and thicknesses to an entire set of modules or to individual modules, and preview texture application in real time. Its production-side features are a notable strength: modules can calculate all component dimensions and include edge banding application, hardware quantities, drilling, and machining information. If the selected service center supports it, the workflow can also cover processing and fabrication. The plugin also supports assembly combinations, internal fillings, partitions, niches, and other configurations, and allows users to save preferences for more efficient reuse.
The official website clearly states that the modules are free and provides a plugin download entry. However, a Cortecloud account is required before use, and SketchUp for PC or Mac must also be installed. The page does not disclose any potential costs related to the Cortecloud account, production services, or SketchUp licensing, nor does it explain terms for commercial use, model copyright, or data ownership. Companies should therefore review the service agreement before adopting it in a formal workflow.
The main advantage is its clear workflow: from design in SketchUp, to exporting a parts list to Cortecloud, to cutting optimization, quotation, and sending the job to a connected service center for production. This aligns fairly well with real-world delivery chains in the woodworking industry. For custom cabinets, furniture prototyping, and outsourced manufacturing, the structured handling of material and machining information is valuable. The downsides are that the official information is mainly in Portuguese, and there is limited detail on the actual size of the asset library, export formats, collaboration permissions, or support system. It also depends heavily on SketchUp and Cortecloud.
hellomob is better suited to woodworkers, custom furniture designers, cabinet manufacturers, and studios that need outsourced fabrication in Brazil or Portuguese-speaking markets. Its accessibility from mainland China cannot be determined from the page content, and payment methods are not disclosed. Even if the site is accessible, there is no information on whether Cortecloud’s service center network covers China. Domestic Chinese users may also want to evaluate alternatives such as Kujiale, 3vjia, or SketchUp combined with OpenCutList, CabinetSense, and similar tools.
