ARfield

Publish straight from your BIM tool

One button on the ribbon. It reads the model you already have open, sends it to ARfield, and hands you a link and a QR code. No export dialog, no settings to get wrong, no file to find afterwards.

Whoever you send the link to still opens it in a browser with no app and no account — that never changes.

Coming soon on the Studio plan

Publishing straight from Revit, Navisworks, Tekla and Archicad is built and in final testing. It is not part of any ARfield plan today — no plan is priced for it, and nothing you are paying for depends on it. When it is released we will say what it costs and who can use it.

Want to be told the day they are released? Email us and we will let you know.

See the plans

Autodesk Revit

2022 – 2027 · Windows · 64-bit

  • ARfield tab on the ribbon
  • Publish the active 3D view, the whole model, or just your selection
  • Category, family, type and level travel with each element
  • Site coordinates read from the model, so AR placement is set up for you

Autodesk Navisworks

2019 – 2027 · Manage and Simulate

  • Publish to ARfield on the Tools menu
  • The whole federated model, everything visible, or your selection
  • Keeps the appearance overrides you set in Navisworks
  • Source file name carried through per item

Tekla Structures

2019 – 2026 · Trimble

  • Runs beside Tekla, not inside it — no add-in to clash with your others
  • Whole model or selected parts
  • Profile, material, class, mark and finish per part
  • Class colours match what you see in Tekla

Graphisoft Archicad

25 and later · Graphisoft

  • Save your 3D view as glTF Binary, then publish it in two clicks
  • Project name and site location read from the running Archicad
  • Right-click any .glb and send it to ARfield
  • One manual step — Archicad's API cannot hand us geometry directly

Installing across a practice

Every connector is a standard Windows MSI and installs silently, so your IT can push it with Intune, SCCM or Group Policy: msiexec /i ARfield-Revit-1.0.0.msi /qn. The Revit installer covers every year in one package and only installs the components for the Revit versions actually on that machine. Uninstalling removes everything and leaves your BIM tools untouched.

What gets sent

The geometry you chose, the element properties you ticked, the name you type and the site coordinates from your model. Not your .rvt, not your drawings, not anything else — and nothing at all until you press Publish.

What we won't pretend

The Archicad connector needs you to save a glTF from the 3D window first. Archicad's automation API returns no geometry to anyone, so a one-click version has to be a native C++ add-on, and we would rather ship the useful 90% now than describe something we have not built. The other three read the model directly with no export step.
