Revit

Your agent builds in Revit, at your desk.

Arqiflow for Revit connects the Revit open on your own computer to your agent. Ask in the chat, and it places walls, rooms, doors and stairs in your model while you work. Every change is listed on the task for you to check.

A task whose agent built the first floor of the Larkin Residence in Revit: 28 walls, 9 rooms, 8 doors and a stair.

In your model

Ask in the chat. Watch it in Revit.

Revit stays open on your computer and the model stays yours. The agent works in it the way you would, one element at a time, and does the repetitive part: walls from the plan, rooms from the area schedule, doors with their swings, tags on the plans.

  • Small changes too. “Make the hall to kitchen door open into the hall.” It changes that door and nothing else.
The agent's account of the Level 1 walls, doors, rooms and tags it built, and of one door it changed on request.

Doors and stairs

Doors placed the way an architect places them.

The agent names the two spaces a door joins. The door tool does the rest by good practice and your firm's own rules on doors, and says what it chose for each one.

  • By a corner. The hinge sits a short return from the room's inside corner, so the open leaf folds back against the wall. Formal rooms and double doors go in the middle.
  • Opening into the room. Into the room it serves, or out when a small bathroom or store has no space for the leaf.
  • Sized by the room. An entrance, a bedroom, a bathroom and a store each get their usual width, from the model's door types.
  • Warnings. When a swing would hit a window, a stair, a fixture or another door, or block a narrow hall, it says so.
  • Stairs. Between two levels, with risers and treads worked out from the floor-to-floor height.
The agent's account of the doors it placed, each with where it sits, which way it opens and its size, a warning about one swing, and the stair.

On the record

Every change, listed on the task.

What the agent built or changed is kept on the task under what it produced: by category and type, with each step it took and the element ids to paste into Revit's Select by ID.

  • Check it in Revit. Select what it made in one go and look it over.
  • For the reviewer too. Whoever approves the task sees what was built and by whom.

The right file

It works in the project's model.

A project names its Revit model in Project info. When the agent is asked to work in another file, it tells you so and goes on if you want it to. Settings shows each connected Revit, its computer and the files open in it.

Drawings in the page

Open drawings and models without leaving Arqiflow.

DWG and DXF drawings, IFC models in 3D, PDFs and images open right on the task or in the project's Files, with layers, measuring and sections. The agent can look at a drawing page by page too.

A DXF first floor plan of the Larkin Residence open in the page, with its grid, rooms and title block.

What the agent does in Revit today.

And more with each release, as the stages after concept arrive.

  • Walls and levels

    Exterior and interior walls on the right level, from the plan.

  • Doors

    By a corner, opening into the room, sized for the room, with warnings for clashes.

  • Rooms

    Created, named and numbered from the area schedule, with their areas checked.

  • Stairs and tags

    Stairs between levels, and doors and rooms tagged on the plans.

  • Project information

    The project's name, client and address filled in from Arqiflow.

  • Opens Revit for you

    With the desktop app, it starts Revit with the project's model when it needs it.

Questions

Which versions of Revit work?
Arqiflow for Revit works with Revit 2023 to 2027 on Windows.
Does my model leave my computer?
The model file stays on your computer unless you, or your agent at your request, attach it to a task. What the agent reads from the model is used to do the task, and what it changed is recorded on the task.
Which plan includes Revit?
Practice and Enterprise. Studio has the agent in the app, without Revit.
What about AutoCAD?
Not yet. Revit comes first, because most firms build their projects in BIM. DWG and DXF drawings already open in Arqiflow.
