Revit itself can be used as a viewer.  When it is installed, it also has a Revit Viewer icon available.  This will allow people to view Revit files without having a license.  It is a fully functional version of Revit but, you cannot save, export or print from Revit Viewer Mode.

Hi @Anonymous

Welcome to the Autodesk community! I see that you are visiting as a new member.

You have the following options to view a Revit model without Revit:

• Use the free online A360 Viewer    
• Download the free Design Review 2013 and export the Revit model as a DWF.
• Use the Revit viewer mode.  This is explained in the article: How to use Revit Viewer Mode
• If you have Navisworks, you can open the Revit file in Navisworks, then save as an NWD file.  That NWD file can then be viewed in the FreeNavisworks Freedom viewer. 
• If you are using A360 Team, you can invite others to the project and they can preview the 3D model there.
• If you export the Revit 3D view to an AutoCAD DWG file (and likely best as ACIS solids), that file can be viewed in AutoCAD or AutoCAD 360
• Check for Revit Viewers at the Autodesk Revit App Store
