Customer Story /// Lucid Motors
One year in.
Zero regrets.
Lucid Motors' packaging team replaced three disconnected tools with one platform. Estimates that took 15 to 20 minutes now take 2 to 5, with packaging and freight cost built into every result.
"Throughout my career, the packaging software market has felt largely neglected. The same tools, essentially unchanged for 15 years. Pack Studio performs all of these tasks seamlessly, with built-in packaging and freight cost estimates I have yet to see offered by any other packaging software on the market."

Lucid Motors, One-Year Review of Pack Studio
Three Different
Tools Now All-in-One
Before a vehicle launch, Lucid's team builds packaging concepts and cost models from CAD data alone, for hundreds of parts, before sourcing even begins. Here is what changed.
Historical Workflow
A complex disconnected workflow
Carton-level density study in one tool
Pallet and truck layouts in separate palletizing software
Stitch everything together in PowerPoint for review
Cost estimating: not available in either tool
15 to 20 minutes per estimate
Pack Studio Software
One unified platform
Import part CAD directly
Select your standards and design criteria
Solution options generate in seconds, ranked by cost
One click to a report ready for any level of management
2 to 5 minutes, from start to report
How It Works
Turning CAD into packaging intelligence that is easily shareable
From CAD to box, pallet, container, and truck in less than 90 seconds. All packaged into a sharable PDF that anyone can follow along with.
01
Import
Bring in part CAD directly. No intermediate files, no manual measurement, no density studies in a separate tool.
02
Define
Apply your packaging standards and design criteria once. Pack Studio holds them across every estimate that follows.
03
Decide
Solution options generate in seconds, ranked by cost. Choose one and produce a comprehensive report immediately.
The Business Case
Measured across a full vehicle launch.
Lucid runs 1,500 to 2,000 packaging estimates per launch. At that volume, minutes compound into a budget line.
70-85%
Reduction in time per estimate
2-5 min
CAD import to finished report
250-600
Hours saved per launch
$17K-$42K
Labor cost savings per launch
Market Differentiator
Cost Data, Built In.
Packaging and freight cost estimating is native to every Pack Studio result. Solutions are not just generated, they are ranked by what they will actually cost to ship. Lucid's team called it a capability they have yet to see in any other packaging software on the market.
