Generate construction-ready Revit families in seconds.

Turn shop drawings, submittals and manufacturer data into coordination-correct, data-rich Revit families — automatically.

The problem

Modeling content is where BIM schedules quietly bleed out.

Every family built by hand is hours your team isn't coordinating, and a chance for the model to drift from what gets installed.

Hours lost to manual modeling

Detailers spend whole days redrawing geometry from PDFs that a manufacturer already published. Multiply that across every submittal and the calendar disappears.

Inconsistent data & standards

Parameters, naming and LOD shift family to family and modeler to modeler. Schedules don't add up and downstream automation has nothing reliable to read.

Clashes found in the field, not the model

When clearance zones and connectors are missing, coordination passes clean and the conflict shows up on site — as an RFI, a delay and a change order.

Workflow

From drawing to family in five steps.

Drop in source content and APEX returns a coordination-correct family — every step is auditable, none of it is hand-modeled.

01

Upload shop drawing or submittal

Feed APEX a manufacturer PDF, submittal package or cut sheet. No template prep, no manual tracing — just the source you already have on hand.

02

AI reads geometry, tags & dimensions

Computer vision extracts overall geometry, dimension strings, connector locations and the typed data buried in tables and title blocks.

03

Builds a parametric LOD 400 family

APEX authors a native parametric family with driven dimensions and flex points — fabrication-level detail, not a placeholder box.

04

Embeds data, clearance zones & nested survey points

Electrical, mechanical and procurement parameters are written in, maintenance clearances are modeled, and survey points are nested for layout.

05

Validate & export field-ready content

Automated checks confirm geometry, data completeness and clearance before you ship a clash-ready, schedule-correct family into the project.

Parametric, coordination-correct geometry

Families come out as true parametric content — driven dimensions, real connectors and accurate solids that flex to match the spec, not approximations a coordinator has to fight.

Validated before it ships

Every family runs an automated check suite — geometry and connectors, embedded data completeness, and modeled maintenance clearance — so what lands in the model is clash-ready and schedule-correct from the first placement.

Use cases

Built for the trades that live and die by content.

From switchgear to skids, APEX generates the disciplined, data-rich families your coordination and fabrication workflows depend on.

Electrical

Switchgear, transformers and panels with voltage data, code clearances and connectors modeled to spec.

Mechanical

AHUs, pumps and equipment skids with accurate connectors, service access and full system parameters.

Data Centers

Repeatable rack, PDU and CRAC content built once and flexed across every hall and white-space module.

Prefabrication

Fabrication-ready families with nested survey points that drive layout, kitting and the shop floor directly.

See it generate your family.

Bring a real submittal to a live demo and watch APEX turn it into a coordination-correct, field-ready Revit family — in seconds.
