aiprenticeHow do you manage Revit families across your firm?
Artifact indexes your Revit families (.rfa), wherever your firm keeps them, into one searchable family library. Browse by category, search by name, check each family’s details and version history, and see which details actually use it.
Turned on per team on request
Where does Artifact find our families?
Where they already live. Point Artifact at folders in Autodesk Forma, BIM 360, or any cloud storage your firm uses, and it indexes every family inside, including subfolders.
- Families in the cloud stay where they are. Artifact reads them; it doesn’t move or edit them.
- Re-run the harvest on a saved folder to pick up new and changed families.
How do you find the family you need?
Browse the category tree, or search by family name.
- Filter the library to one category at a time.
- Each family shows a thumbnail plus all its parameters and file details.
How do you keep track of family versions?
Artifact keeps every harvested version of a family, so you can compare versions and see how it has changed.
Which details use a given family?
Every detail and view in Artifact lists the families it contains, with their names and Revit versions. Search a family’s name to find the details that use it.
- Before you revise a standard family, check where it’s been used.
- When you’re reviewing a detail, see exactly which families it depends on.
