Archicad to SketchUp

archicad to sketchup

Speckle is your data hub that connects with your AEC tools.

Instantly sync your design team: get everybody on the same page.

Lightweight geometry

Archicad models are loaded into flattened SketchUp layers (by level and category) as mesh and curve geometry, with their render materials.

Decide what to share

Publish just the objects your collaborators need to do their work best! No more sending huge files and losing track of priorities.

Update notifications

Get immediately notified in SketchUp when there’s a new version. Keep your team perfectly in sync and working with the latest model.

Smart collaboration

Get your team’s comments as soon as they make them so you can resolve issues immediately.

Good to know

This workflow is intended for geometric design coordination between different models and disciplines.
Object properties are published from Archicad, but will not be loaded in SketchUp.
Grids or 2D drawings (floor plans, sections etc.)  are not yet supported.
