The Problem

Architecture files are too important to live in chaos.

In most firms, project files are spread across personal laptops, WhatsApp groups, emails, pen drives, and external hard disks — creating confusion, version mistakes, duplicated effort, and serious data-loss risk.

Before Baadal™

Scattered. Stressful. Risky.

Latest revision on one PC?
Site photos lost in WhatsApp?
BOQ buried in old emails?
Renders on someone's pen-drive?
Client approval in V7_FINAL_v2?
Consultant waiting on file transfer?
After Baadal™

One source of truth. For every project.

Use Cases

Built for the daily rhythm of an architecture practice.

From concept sketch to final handover — every file, every approval, every site update flows through one private cloud you actually own.

CAD & Design Files

AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp, Lumion, PDFs, and design files in one central, organised place — with fast local access.

3D Renders & Walkthroughs

Store high-resolution renders, walkthroughs, animations, and presentation PDFs project-wise without filling up laptops.

Site Photos & Updates

Site teams upload progress photos, videos, and updates directly into the right project folder — straight from mobile.

Client Approvals

Share selected drawings, PDFs, and renders with clients using view-only access or secure expiring links.

Consultant Coordination

Coordinate with structural, MEP, contractors, and vendors without endlessly emailing 500MB files back and forth.

Backup & Recovery

RAID protection plus organised storage means a dead laptop or accidental delete won't cost you weeks of work.

Portfolio Power

Turn finished projects into a shareable portfolio — instantly.

Every great project deserves to be seen. With Baadal™, your finished work becomes a polished digital portfolio you can share with clients, embed on your website, or include in proposals — without depending on Behance, Instagram, or any third-party platform.

01
One link. Every project. Generate a public shareable link that always reflects your latest work.
02
You decide what's visible. Choose which projects, which files, and whether viewers can download or only view.
03
Update anytime. Add new projects or replace renders — the same link stays alive. No reshares needed.
04
Always yours. Your designs stay on your private cloud — never harvested by a third-party platform.

Frequently Asked

Everything you might be wondering.

Can Baadal™ handle large design files like AutoCAD & Revit?
Yes. Baadal™ is engineered for heavy architecture files — AutoCAD (.dwg), Revit / BIM models, 3D renders, and large project archives — with fast local access plus smooth remote viewing, without typical public-cloud delays.
Can I access files from site or a client location?
Yes. Open drawings at construction sites, present designs at client offices, or work from home without carrying pen drives or external HDDs.
Can my whole team work on the same project simultaneously?
Yes. Baadal™ supports multi-user access with centralised storage and organised project workflows, so every team member sees the latest version in the right folder.
Can I share files securely with clients without losing control?
Absolutely. Share via secure links with view-only access, restrict downloads and editing, and revoke access anytime. No more sensitive design files floating on WhatsApp or email.
Can I share my portfolio publicly?
Yes — and this is a favourite for architects. Curate selected projects into a public, shareable link you can send to clients, embed on your website, or include in proposals. You control which files are visible and whether viewers can download or only view.
What happens if a drive fails?
Baadal™ uses RAID redundancy so that a single drive failure does not mean lost data. Combined with backup support, your projects stay protected against the most common failure scenarios.
Do I need an IT team to set this up?
No. Baadal™ is plug-and-play — connect to power and Wi-Fi, follow the mobile app's guided setup, and you're ready. Setup support and fast customer service are included.
