What is parametric design
Developing a parametric script or generative design tool isn’t just an investment in innovation and efficiency, it can also be financially beneficial.
For Dutch companies, development costs are generally tax-deductible as business expenses. In addition, projects focused on automation, product innovation, or digitalisation may qualify for government incentives such as the WBSO (R&D tax credit) or the Innovation Box.
In other words, investing in parametric design not only makes your workflow smarter — it can also reduce your tax burden.
(Note: tax benefits depend on your specific business and situation. Always consult your accountant or tax advisor for details)

Compared to software applications
Developing a parametric script within a familiar environment like Rhino/Grasshopper3D represents a substantially lower development cost compared to building a standalone software application, while still offering high levels of automation and customisation.
