The problem it solves

Your Revit models hold valuable project data, but getting it into a usable spreadsheet for analysis or sharing means manual exports and formatting. Non-technical stakeholders can't easily review what's locked inside the model file.

Who it fits

Architecture, engineering, or construction firms working with Revit project files.

How it works

  1. You submit the file path for your Revit project and choose an export mode through a form
  2. The automation runs the export tool against that project file
  3. It converts building categories, drawings, and specifications into a structured export
  4. You receive a spreadsheet file, and optionally drawing and PDF files, ready to review
What you get

Specs converted without manual re-entry

You get an organized spreadsheet of your building's drawings and specifications ready to review right away.

What you get

A spreadsheet of your Revit project's data, plus optional drawing and PDF exports.

What you need

A Windows machine with the Revit export toolkit installed and a Revit project file.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
