Ideatura

By audience

Architecture

• Generate complete dimension sets across plans, sections and elevations from one plain-English command, tied to real geometry — any wall layer (face, core or centerline), and across linked files.
• Model massing, facades, model edits and component placement from a sketch, photo or prompt during design development, without leaving the live Revit model.
• Mark up a drawing directly in Ideatura Studio and have the change executed back into the model as a standard, rollback-able Revit transaction.
• Run compliance and QA passes that read the model and drawings, pull the numbers and check them against code (limited beta).

Designer / Drafter

• Automate the repetitive CD-set chores — dimensions, tags, views and sheet layout — to the firm's own graphic and naming standards.
• Batch-create and rename plans, RCPs, sections and elevations into the existing view-template structure instead of doing it view by view.
• Build out the drawing-package structure: create sheets, place views in position, automate numbering and populate title-block data consistently.
• Review what Ideatura will place before it touches the model, then tune the exposed parameters (offsets, styles, categories) rather than re-prompting from scratch.

BIM Manager

• Encode firm standards and templates once as saved automations, then publish them to the shared library so every project and every team member applies them the same way.
• Keep Revit as the single system of record — Ideatura reads the live model and writes back into it, so there are no exports or parallel files to reconcile.
• Replace bespoke Dynamo graphs for documentation tasks with plain-language automations that non-developers on the team can author and adjust.
• Deploy as a local Revit add-in backed by the vendor's cloud services, self-updating via the vendor's own release channels rather than an Autodesk App Store install.

Structural Engineering

• Dimension and tag structural elements — grids, levels, structural walls and framing — across plans and sections in a single batched command.
• Annotate against the live shared Revit model (including linked files) so structural documentation stays coordinated with the architectural model rather than forking into a parallel file.
• Named by the vendor as a target discipline on its Solutions page; the shipped Drawing production module is category-driven and discipline-agnostic, while structural detailing sits in the limited-beta Construction details module.

MEP Engineering

• Automate view creation, sheet layout and tagging for MEP drawing packages to the firm's naming, view-template and title-block standards.
• Work on the live model and its linked files, so MEP consultants annotate against the current architectural background without re-importing.
• Named by the vendor as a target discipline on its Solutions page; MEP-specific capability beyond drawing production sits in the limited-beta modules (Component modeling, Construction details, Compliance & QA).

By phase

Design

• Turn design intent into a coordinated construction-document set — dimensions, tags, views and sheets — inside the live Revit model.
• Build massing, facades and component families (doors, windows, furniture, fixtures, equipment) from sketches, photos or prompts as the design develops.
• Author construction details and assemblies as the 2D detail layer matures toward CDs.

Pre-Construction

• Run compliance and QA checks over the model and drawings, extracting the numbers and testing them against code before the set is issued (limited beta).
• Verify that drawing and model changes were carried through consistently before issuing for permit or tender.
