Ways to integrate with SketchUp

Install a plugin for SketchUp

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

Download plugin

Drag and drop files

Drag and drop files into Speckle to view, analyze, and share models without needing a design tool license.

Send SketchUp data to other CAD and BIM tools

Revit

Sent SketchUp objects will be loaded as direct shapes with materials.

Power BI

Embed SketchUp models directly in your Power BI reports with a 3D visual.
Access SketchUp attributes (instance and definition).
Extend SketchUp model data with external data sources.

Grasshopper

Send SketchUp models into Grasshopper with full geometry and attributes.
Convert SketchUp components into blocks in Grasshopper.
Access SketchUp attributes for data extraction.
Use SketchUp geometry as input for analysis, optimization, or generation of new designs in Grasshopper.

Archicad

Sent SketchUp components are loaded as individual GDL objects with materials.

Speckle boosts your SketchUp workflows

Revit to SketchUp

No SketchUp studio license needed to load Revit models! Revit families are converted to SketchUp components with the same name. Revit levels, categories, and types become SketchUp tags. Revit materials, including transparent ones, are preserved as SketchUp materials. No Revit installation or license required.

Drag and drop SketchUp files

Upload SketchUp files directly to the browser. No SketchUp install required! Anyone on any device can view full model geometry and data, making it ideal for read-only access, automated checks, and hands-off pipelines.

Receive any model, design in SketchUp

Bring Revit, Rhino, Grasshopper, and other models into SketchUp, preserving full geometry and metadata. Use SketchUp for design exploration.

Version diffing for confident decisions

See exactly what changed between design iterations—geometry, materials, properties—with experimental diffing. Track design evolution without drowning in version notes, helping teams understand intent and stay aligned on decisions.
