BIM software to design and make anything

Design buildings and infrastructure in 3D. Build greener projects. Transform the world.

Overview

Summary

If you can imagine it, you can design it in Autodesk Revit. Autodesk® Revit® allows architectects, engineers, and construction professionals to:

  • Model shapes, structures, and systems in 3D with parametric accuracy, precision, and ease
  • Streamline project management with instant revisions to plans, elevations, schedules, sections, and sheets
  • Unite multidisciplinary project teams for higher efficiency, collaboration, and impact in the office or on the jobsite

Why use Revit?

Run projects more efficiently

Ease production burdens by using built-in automation for documenting design and managing deliverables.

Unify teams and workflows

Save, sync, & share model-based BIM and CAD data in Revit. Connect multidisciplinary teams & workflows.

Take command of design data

Use Revit as the data backbone of your BIM process. Develop & deploy standards, workflows & content.

Highlights

Create and develop your design intent

With tools for sketching, scheduling, sharing, annotating, and visualizing, Revit helps architects, engineers, and contractors collaborate more effectively. See the latest release of Autodesk Revit (video: 6:25 min.)

Keep your teams on the same page with collaborative modeling

Autodesk supports the way AEC project teams work, in the office or on the go. Revit cloud worksharing and BIM Collaborate Pro support collaboration and a common data environment.

Deliver better buildings for everyone

With integrated analysis tools and the ability to unite multiple datasets and file types, architects and engineers use Autodesk Revit to design with confidence. Revit connects design data from other AEC apps, like McNeel Rhino.

Extend Revit with the AEC Collection

With CAD, BIM, and cloud design tools, architects, engineers, and construction professionals rely on the AEC Collection to cost-effectively bundle industry-grade software. Save thousands annually on Revit + AutoCAD in the AEC Collection versus standalone.

Better together: AutoCAD & Revit
Together, AutoCAD and Revit offer fast, effective design to documentation workflows. See how (video: 1:21 min.)
