What's new in Revit 2027

News | May 1, 2026

Autodesk Revit 2027 focuses heavily on the future of BIM: working smarter with AI, intensified cloud collaboration, greater visibility into sustainability and marked improvements in performance. Linking with tools such as Forma is getting tighter, making workflows more compatible.

Below you will find the most important innovations clearly explained.Follow a training course

Autodesk Assistant: AI at your fingertips

One of the most notable additions is the Autodesk Assistant (Tech Preview). This AI support helps you directly while working in Revit.

What can you do with it?

  • Get instant answers to feature questions
  • Retrieve information from your model, such as numbers and properties
  • Automate tasks via simple prompts, such as generating schedules

In addition, you will receive smart suggestions that will help you work more efficiently and learn new workflows faster.

Seamless collaboration with Forma

With the Forma Connected Client, Revit is directly linked to the Forma cloud environment. This allows you to work with the same dataset without cumbersome import and export steps.

Advantages:

  • Working in real time with shared project data
  • Enriching models with context from the environment
  • Instant insight into sustainability analyses
  • Faster switching between concept and detail level

This allows for a more integrated and data-driven design approach.

Sustainability central to design

Revit 2027 offers more extensive capabilities to analyze the environmental impact of designs, particularly in the area of Embodied Carbon.

New in this release:

  • Deeper carbon analyses, including structural elements
  • Linkage with Forma Carbon Insights
  • Carbondata linked to materials via EC3
  • Clear view via a separate Carbon tab

This allows you to make better choices based on sustainability early in the design process.

Managing issues within your workflow

With Integrated Issues Management, collaboration becomes clearer and more efficient. Issues are created directly in Revit and synchronized with the cloud.

  • Issues visible in both 2D and 3D
  • Synchronization between desktop and cloud
  • Better tracking and prioritization
  • More context through links to elements

This helps teams solve problems faster and work better together.

Work faster with Accelerated Graphics

The fully rolled-out Accelerated Graphics technology provides a marked performance improvement, especially in 3D.

  • Faster navigation and modeling
  • Real-time updates from Section Boxes
  • Better display of linked models
  • Support for halftone settings

In practice, this means smoother operations and less waiting time.

Automatic Numbering with Rule-Based Numbering

With Rule-Based Numbering, you automate the numbering of elements in your model.

  • Numbering based on filters and parameters
  • Use of templates and priorities
  • Automatic correction of number ranges
  • Applicable to doors, rebar and precast parts, among others

This increases consistency and saves a lot of manual work.

Improved user experience and interface

The daily workflow has been further optimized with several UI improvements.

  • The Options Bar has been removed and logically distributed among interface elements
  • Custom Editing Color for better visual feedback
  • Improved Design Options workflow
  • New dialogues with support for light and dark mode
  • More control over the Project Browser

This makes Revit clearer and more pleasant to use.

Dynamo and technical improvements

A lot has also changed under the hood, especially for advanced users and developers.

  • Dynamo 4.0.2 with improved performance
  • PythonNet3 as the default Python engine
  • Migration to .NET 10
  • Expanded API capabilities

This makes automation and development within Revit more powerful and future-proof.

Improvements by discipline

Targeted updates have been made for several subject areas.

Architecture:

  • Improved stage numbering and annotations
  • Walls can host other walls
  • More control in wall placement
  • Improved energy modeling workflows

MEP:

  • Improved machining of fabrication parts
  • New parameters and documentation options
  • Transition to System Zones for HVAC

Construction:

  • Improvements in analytical models
  • Optimized rebar workflows
  • Greater control over taxes and boundary conditions
  • Improved integration with Robot Structural Analysis

Summary

Revit 2027 clearly shows where BIM is moving: a combination of AI, cloud and sustainable design. Integration with Forma, Autodesk Assistant and improved performance make this release especially interesting for teams looking to collaborate more efficiently.

The result: faster work, better insights and more control over your design and construction process.
