Revit BIM Checker
ArchiChecker now checks your Revit model directly, not just the CD set. The BIM Checker runs AI-powered checks against your actual model data: fire ratings against host walls, schedule rows against model elements, annotations against placed views, and code related data against IBC, NFPA, and ADA thresholds.
Every finding includes the element ID, level, and a clear description of what's wrong and why it matters. Results appear in your ArchiChecker dashboard alongside your PDF projects — one platform for all your QC.

NR fire rating in a 4 HR wall. NFPA 80 requires 180-min rated assembly.
No occupancy classification assigned. Egress and occupant load checks cannot run for this room.

From Revit to report
Extract data
One click extracts doors, rooms, walls, tags, schedules, keynotes, linked model metadata, materials, fire ratings, and key dimensions.
Run AI checks
AI reviews the full model context, elements, parameters, and relationships. So nothing slips through.
Review report
Browse findings by severity, category, element ID, and level with clear action messages.
What the BIM Checker validates
From schedules and doors to sheets and model health—organized so your team can review and act fast.
Schedule ↔ Plan Cross-Check
- Compares your door schedule to what's in the model and on your floor plans.
- Spot doors that exist on the plan but never made it into the schedule (and the other way around).
- The AI highlights mismatches on the details that matter—material, frame, hardware set, fire rating, size, and similar fields.
Code Compliance
- Uses IBC, ADA, and NFPA code references, so results map to the standards teams check.
- Looks at the data reviewers care about: occupancy, egress, fire ratings, accessible door and opening widths, and related parameters pulled straight from the model.
- Cross-checks door fire ratings against the rated walls they sit in, so the door–wall story stays believable end to end.
Door Data Integrity
- Flags when ratings, hardware, or host-wall context don't line up the way the drawings say they should.
- Calls out rated doors with no hardware, material vs. fire-rating plausibility (for example a wood door carrying a 180-min rating), and doors not connected to any room.
- Catches missing or duplicate door marks and gaps in type parameters before they spread.
Room Data Integrity
- Calls out placeholder room names and unfinished room records—missing areas, room numbers, names, or program fields that should be settled before issue.
- Flags rooms with weak egress topology (for example, no bounding doors into rated corridors or stairs) and missing occupancy or use data you need for code reviews and calculations.
- Keeps room schedules, area takeoffs, and anything downstream of the room model from inheriting quiet data gaps.
Documentation Completeness
- Finds empty sheets, views that never got placed, and schedules that won't show up in the printed set.
- Nudges you on title block basics—issue dates, checked-by, and other fields teams forget at 5pm Friday.
- A lighter-weight preflight so issue day feels less like a scavenger hunt.
Annotation Completeness
- Finds rooms and doors that never picked up a tag anywhere in the project.
- Catches orphaned tags that still "look" fine on the sheet but point at the wrong thing under the hood.
- The sort of cleanup that saves you from late-night "how did we miss that?" moments.
Model Health
- Calls out unloaded or broken links before coordination meetings get awkward.
- Surfaces heavy CAD imports and other baggage that can slow the model or blow up exports.
- Sanity-checks keynote setup so tags and tables aren't fighting each other.
Two tools, different strengths
The PDF checker and BIM checker complement each other at different project stages.
PDF Plan Review
Best for final CD set review
AI reads printed sheets and catches cross-sheet inconsistencies, reference issues, and coordination gaps across the full drawing set.
Works on any PDF and does not require Revit.
Revit BIM Checker
Best during design & DD
Reads exact parameter values from model elements (ratings, relationships, IDs) and cross-references schedules against model entities.
Catches issues before sheets are printed.
Real project results
Meridian Residences — 142 doors, 54 rooms, 55 sheets
On a multi-story residential tower, the BIM Checker reported 237 issues in 8 minutes. Including:
- 55 doors in fire-rated walls where the assembly rating was missing or lower than the wall required.
- 10 doors in the model with no matching row on the door schedule.
- 65 fire-rated doors without a hardware set assigned.
- Rooms missing occupancy, so egress and occupant-load logic could not run for those spaces.
- Sheets and tags out of sync—door tags on plans that did not line up with the current schedule or hosted elements.
Each of those could be flagged by the building department or surface during a costly field review.

This was a serious upgrade from spot-checking the model and chasing schedule mismatches by hand. The run surfaced problems we would have argued about in the field—ratings, hardware gaps, rooms that were not ready for code checks—and gave the team one prioritized list to fix before submittal. We would run it again on the next milestone without hesitation.
Catch it in the model, not in the field
Fire rating gaps, missing annotations, schedule mismatches, and code compliance issues — found in seconds.
