Thanks!

Hi Viveka,
Is there a way to view the Revit 3D model online? Like a plug-in that I can install it on my website to display revit 3D models to website visitors?
Cheers

You will need to view with the Revit Viewer....basically the trial but a different shortcut (not on desktop)
Hi,
I know this was answered. But you might want to try xuver.com online viewer. You can essentially convert and upload your Revit file to their online viewer and then invite anyone to join you inside and view it with you. You can then both walk around with an avatar and use the voice module to discuss ideas if you'd like.
Hi @Anonymous
Thanks for sharing! How about VR?

Hi @Viveka_CD
This should be up and running in a few months actually. They're working on it currently.

Hi , we have revit files which cannot be shared on cloud. Are there any free viewer that can be downloaded onto our PC for viewing and comment?
The program from Autodesk is used to make RVT files, thus it will open files in this format, too. If you do not have already got Revit and you are not coming up with on buying it, you'll still open the RVT file for free with the Revit trial.

Why can't you share it on the cloud?
Xuver(.)com has a free viewer that works completely online.
You can setup an account, which will allow you to download a free plugin to convert your RVT file, upload it to their system and view your model online.
If you would like to share your model with others you can actually invite other people inside to view it with you from their own browser, from anywhere in the world.
It then allows you to both walk around your model with your own avatar and discuss ideas while inside.
We need to be able to view our consultant's revit files without compromising their design by having it potentially accessible by other users/companies. This is why we need a local revit viewer. I'm amazed that this reason is overlooked or not understood by the previous commenter. I understood the first commenter's request completely. Not everything is sharable / viewable on the web - no matter how 'easy' it is.
There is a viewer mode in Revit. Just download the trial and you will have the viewer that can be used after the trial is done.
It amazes me that people will criticize the apparent lack of a resource without fully investigating. The original question was about viewing a model without Revit.
Viveka,
3 years later your list of solution does not seem to work anymore. I have a problem as I was given set of .rvt files created by HVAC manufacturers (Trane, etc.) and have to convert them to collada files (.dea) or .3ds files used by proprietary software we use. I do not have access to any Autodesk products. I tried your list of solutions in hopes that I could find some way of converting them
This thread is about viewing Revit files, not converting them. You need the full program for making conversions.
If you have more questions, you should start your own thread.
