Ways to integrate with Blender

Install a plugin for Blender

Use the Speckle connector to exchange data and objects with other tools as you design.

Download plugin

Send Blender data to other CAD and BIM tools

Revit

Send Blender models into Revit as DirectShapes with materials.

SketchUp

Send Blender models into SketchUp with materials.
Blender collections are loaded as Tags in SketchUp.

Rhino

Send Blender meshes to Rhino as mesh objects with materials.
Bezier and NURBS curves convert to native Rhino curves.
Blender's collection hierarchy becomes a nested Rhino layer tree.

Archicad

Send Blender mesh objects into Archicad as GDL library parts with materials.
Blender curves are dropped on receive; only mesh geometry arrives in Archicad.

Speckle boosts your Blender workflows

Send Blender assets to other AEC apps

Bring Blender's extensive asset libraries: furniture, fixtures, landscape elements, and parametric objects directly into Revit, Rhino, ArchiCAD, and other AEC tools. Access thousands of assets that don't exist in traditional BIM libraries.

Photorealistic rendering & animation

Load models from any Speckle-connected application into Blender for high-quality visualization. Create client presentations, design animations, and photorealistic renderings with your live project data—no manual exports or file conversions required.

Non-destructive version updates

Update your models while preserving any modifiers you've applied in Blender. When new versions arrive from your team, your subdivision surfaces, arrays, boolean operations, and custom modifications stay intact, keeping your workflow uninterrupted.
