"Alibre, Inc., Bunkspeed Announce Global Distribution Agreement"

Alibre, Inc. announced a new partnership with Bunkspeed, makers of HyperShot – the 3D rendering application for design, engineering, and marketing. Alibre will immediately begin distributing HyperShot Web, HyperShot HD, and HyperShot Pro, as well as provide local sales and support services through its reseller network in 50 countries worldwide.

Alibre Design, Alibre’s flagship CAD software, delivers value to engineers by providing the same core functionality of products like SolidWorks, Inventor, and other mid-range solid modeling software at one fifth their cost.

“Our CAD/CAM technology, combined with HyperShot, makes a truly unique and highly cost effective solution from concept design all the way to downstream activities such as creating magazine quality ads for finished products or even product proposals for new ones. Since both Alibre and HyperShot are designed with simplicity and power in mind, the marriage of the two becomes really compelling. It’s just never been done at the price we’re doing it at, or even close for that matter,” says J. Paul Grayson, Alibre Chairman and CEO. “It’s a huge leap forward for our users, since many customers lack a marketing department or knowledge of complex rendering software. For these customers, the ability to jump in and make a magazine quality rendering of the products they design with Alibre Design, in minutes and not hours or days, is crucial to winning bids and selling their products. HyperShot empowers them in much the same way Alibre Design does,” he adds.
