Frequently asked questions
Does the AI know all sign materials?
Yes — Alu-Dibond (3mm, 4mm, 6mm), acrylic glass (cast, extruded, satin), Forex, stainless steel (V2A, V4A), rigid PVC foam, HPL, wood. Prices are based on current wholesale prices and updated regularly.
Can I calculate wayfinding systems with DIN pictograms?

How does the installation calculation work?
The AI considers: sign size and weight, mounting type (standoffs, wall mounting, pylon foundation), substrate (concrete, masonry, drywall), height and accessibility.
Can I set my own material prices?
Yes, you can override the AI suggestions with your own purchase prices at any time. The AI learns from this for future calculations.
