Revit IFC Viewer

View Revit IFC files online

Revit exports the open IFC format, and Wizarch reads it directly. Upload the IFC file you export from Revit and Wizarch renders it as an interactive 3D building model in the browser — orbit it, walk it floor by floor, and switch a storey into a projected plan view. It is an online IFC viewer built to fit the Revit workflow, without asking your client to open Autodesk software.

Revit → IFC → Wizarch workflow

1. In Revit, export your model to IFC (File → Export → IFC), choosing an IFC export setup that suits the recipient.
2. Create a project in Wizarch and pick its client URL, like /your-studio/project/.
3. Upload the IFC file. Wizarch converts it to lightweight Fragments for fast in-browser loading.
4. Send the link. Your client opens an interactive 3D building model in any browser.

Client delivery without Revit

Your client does not run Revit, and with Wizarch they do not need to. The model becomes one web link that opens the 3D building in any browser, including on mobile, so your client explores what you are designing instead of imagining it from a flat render. Links stay unlisted by default, and you can lock any project behind a client password. Here is how to share a BIM model with a client.

Revit IFC export tips

The quality of what you see in the viewer is decided at export time. A few settings make the biggest difference when exporting IFC from Revit:

1. Pick the right IFC export setup. Revit ships with several export setups (IFC 2x3 Coordination View, IFC4 Reference View, and others) under File → Export → IFC → Modify setup. Choose or duplicate one that matches who receives the file rather than exporting with whatever was last used.
2. Check your level / storey structure. Revit levels export as IFC building storeys, which is what powers Wizarch's floor-by-floor filtering and plan view. Make sure the levels you care about are set to be building storeys so each floor comes through cleanly.
3. Map categories to the right IFC classes. The IFC class mapping (IfcExportAs) decides how Revit categories become IFC elements. A sensible mapping keeps walls, doors, windows and furniture as the elements a viewer expects, instead of generic proxies.
4. Include the property sets you need. Enable the property sets and base quantities you actually rely on in the export setup. Leave them off and that metadata never reaches the model; turn them on and it travels with it.
5. Export the right scope. Use a clean 3D view (or a filtered view) as the export basis so you send the element types you want at a sensible level of detail. Leaner files convert and load faster (Wizarch turns IFC into Fragments for speed).

A note on fidelity: Wizarch shows exactly what is in your IFC file. How floors, colors, metadata, and materials appear depends on your Revit IFC export setup — there is no guarantee of perfect, one-to-one fidelity with the Revit model. If something looks off in the viewer, it is almost always worth revisiting the export settings above. Working in ArchiCAD or Vectorworks instead? The same IFC workflow applies.
