Why Guardian?

The Perfect Add-In to Make Revit Smarter

As impressive as Revit can be, it falls frustratingly short with many basic management functions, slowing down projects and risking costly errors. Guardian’s add-in for Revit helps BIM managers, digital design directors, and designers save time, build consistency, and improve quality.
Clean Your Models

Automate Consistency

Maintaining standards in Revit is, at best, difficult. Guardian is the only add-in technology that automates your firm’s Revit standards and best practices. Properties automatically sync across projects, stray standards are flagged and merged, and elements are protected from accidental deletion — all without manual busy work from BIM managers.
Guardian Sync Properties™ host your firm standards in the cloud.
Guardian Project Properties automatically align projects to your standards.
Avoid model bloat by automatically merging duplicate families.
Our Rules-Based Protections come pre-loaded and can be customized.

Train Your Teams

In-the-Moment Learning

Users may have their own ways of operating in Revit, leading to inconsistency and delays. Guardian for Revit is more than just an add-in — it acts as a mentor, friend, teacher, and cool manager for your end-users. Not only does the platform ensure firm standards are being followed, but it also empowers users to learn those standards, follow best practices, and better communicate with BIM managers and each other.
Program reminders for end-users to sync their work often.
Customize messages that can be sent through Revit.
Prompt users to input parameters when they place elements.
Actionable Insights

Dynamic Data

Revit can reveal all sorts of BIM management insights, but the platform doesn’t make it easy to gather the data. Guardian’s add-in finds those elusive metrics that measure model performance and users’ Revit tendencies. This clean data drives proactive, strategic decision-making to improve efficiency and quality — and is standard for Guardian clients at no additional cost.
Prebuilt, customizable dashboards deliver the data you need.
Access to this valuable data can be granted to end-users.
All your data safely resides on our secure Azure-based servers.
