What is the Autodesk Revit MCP Server?

AEC Model Bridge is the open, secure runtime that puts Revit, Rhino, Navisworks, and Power BI behind one MCP call center — so an AI agent orchestrates them

What it actually does

  • 100+ MCP tools for model authoring, documentation, parameters, views, sheets, exports, and QA
  • Native Revit & Navisworks add-ins with no Dynamo or pyRevit dependencies
  • Multi-platform synchronization: Cross-query Navisworks clash results, Revit parameters, and Rhino models dynamically
  • Speckle and PowerBI automated data handoffs
  • Async job orchestration and centralized PII redaction
  • Reflection and in-process Python for advanced API workflows

Configuration

| Revit version | Add-in target | Required build tools | |---|---|---| | 2024 | .NET Framework 4.8 | .NET 8 SDK and .NET Framework 4.8 developer pack | | 2025 | .NET 8 for Windows | .NET 8 SDK | | 2026 | .NET 8 for Windows | .NET 8 SDK | | 2027 | .NET 10 for Windows | .NET 10 SDK | You also need Windows 10 or 11, Python 3.11 or later, and a licensed Revit installation for the version you want to
