Revit task automation

If your detailers do it every project, it’s a candidate for automation. The practice here is simple: find the repeated work, build the smallest tool that removes it, and hand it off documented so it keeps running without me.

The toolchain, matched to the problem

• Dynamo for batch operations and workflows a BIM lead can own and modify — the right shape for one-off cleanups and small recurring tasks.
• pyRevit / Python for tools the whole team runs from a toolbar — the fastest path from “we keep doing this by hand” to “it’s a button now,” with version control.
• C# add-ins for production-grade tooling: bulk parameter operations, sheet and view generation from WBS structures, model health checks, export pipelines, and anything that needs testing, packaging, and deployment across a department.

What automation engagements look like

• An automation audit: a review of your team’s repetitive Revit work, ranked by hours recoverable, with a build recommendation for each item
• A focused build: one workflow, scripted, tested on your live models, documented, and handed off
• A tool suite: a set of commands deployed to the team, with training built on your models — not canned exercises

Every deliverable includes documentation and a handoff session. The goal is tools your team owns, not a dependency on the consultant who wrote them.

Where this comes from

Production automation shipped at two top-15 electrical contractors and, today, at Augmenta.ai — plus MCG Parameter Pusher, a free add-in on the Autodesk App Store. This is not scripting learned from tutorials; it’s tooling that has survived live projects and real users.
