Third party tools for managing family types?

Hello, I spent part of this morning looking in the app store for a tool I can use to help manage family types within an rfa file. I think the ideal tool would let me look at a list of all the family types with selected parameters shown, allow for batch load of parameters and also for duplication of types (which would then be reanamed and made into new types), bulk deletion of types and so forth. 

I didn't find what I was looking for but I did come across Family Editor Interface by Archilizer which provides a nice alternative to the standard family type editor, check it out if you don't know it. 

 

if you have any suggestions on where I can find a tool please reply, and thank you.

Sounds like you're describing some of the things we do with Rushforth Tools.

That's an interesting response, because I use Rushforth tools already and don't think it does what I am describing. But perhaps I'm not fully exploiting this tool, so I'll take a good look at this. Thanks

Many parameter will guide which app to use.. depending on following ( not that intensive ) but 

may have more parameter...to finally decide..

Sorry, this reply is incomprehensible to me. 

I'll should have posted this on Revit MEP forum. I'll take it there.

I think there's a Rube Goldberg App as well.
