ArchiLabs

ArchiLabs is an AI-powered Revit plugin designed as an "AI co-pilot for architects." It enables architects and BIM professionals to 10× their design speed with simple AI prompts by automating tedious tasks directly within Revit without requiring coding or technical expertise.

ArchiLabs functions as a chat-style interface integrated into Revit where you describe what you need, and the AI executes those instructions directly in your BIM model. Under the hood, the tool translates your natural language requests into transaction-safe Python scripts that interact with Revit's API, handling all the technical complexity for you.

ArchiLabs comes equipped with ready-made automation routines for common architectural tasks including sheet creation, view creation, tagging, dimensioning, and schedule generation. The flagship feature, Agent Mode, transforms ArchiLabs into a conversational BIM assistant that operates through multi-turn dialogue. You can ask questions about your project, receive answers, and follow up with actions—all within the same context. For example, you could ask "Are there any untagged rooms in this model?" and then respond with "Tag those rooms for me," and ArchiLabs will execute both steps while remembering the context. ArchiLabs has integrated OpenAI's image generation technology to produce renderings directly from Revit models, allowing you to request rendered views with specific styles and ambiances. The tool includes an authoring mode that lets you create custom automations from scratch by chatting with the AI, serving as a Dynamo and pyRevit replacement.

ArchiLabs can handle numerous architectural tasks, including creating and laying out sheets, room tagging and naming updates, schedule generation, area plan creation, placing structural columns, creating 3D views, aligning viewports, parameter management, filtering operations, and adding dimensions to drawings. Complex multi-step processes that might take half a day can be completed in minutes with perfect consistency.

ArchiLabs operates on a paid pricing model, though specific pricing details are not publicly listed in standard resources.

ArchiLabs was founded by Brian and William and is backed by Y Combinator, a prestigious startup accelerator.

No. One of ArchiLabs' core advantages is that it requires no coding or Dynamo graph knowledge. You simply describe what you need in plain language through the chat interface, and the AI handles all the technical implementation.

Yes. ArchiLabs supports seamless collaboration, allowing you to directly share automations you create with your team members.

ArchiLabs is specifically designed for Revit integration as a Revit add-in plugin.

The key benefits include dramatically increased design speed and efficiency, elimination of repetitive drafting tasks, improved consistency and accuracy in documentation, reduced human error, faster design iteration processes, and more time for designers to focus on creative work rather than rote tasks.
