Why choose Ideate Explorer?

When using this model browser, as opposed to the project browser in Revit, users will decrease the time they spend on model management, increase the accuracy of their models, and reduce file space by:


  • Finding and deleting incorrect, obsolete, and hidden problem items, including DWGs
  • Finding, refining, and revising elements, even those excluded from the project browser
  • Getting a full view of any Revit model and understanding all elements in the model
  • Easily complying with standards
  • Auditing and removing Revit warnings

“We use Ideate Explorer every day for quality control activities. The search capabilities in Revit are very limited, but with Ideate Explorer and its Query tool, we can find any element in the model, select it, locate it within the model, browse through its properties, identify issues, and more.”


~Oscar Ramos-Martinez, Parkin
