Revit add-in connection
Connect Hypar with Revit through the add-in workflow shown on the site, which supports loading a project from Revit and sending a selection from Revit into Hypar.
Hypar
ClaimHypar is a free-to-start, Revit-compatible building design tool for healthcare, workplaces, data centers and more, with web workflows, options, libraries, clearances, DWG import and sharing.
Overview
Hypar is a building design product for healthcare, workplaces, data centers, and related project types. The site describes it as free to start, Revit-compatible, and focused on design workflows that connect a web-based project environment with Revit.
The product page emphasizes project setup, design iteration, content reuse, and sharing. Paid plans add unlimited projects and features such as options, libraries, clearances with clash detection, DWG import, and live links for collaboration.
Features
Design options
Iterate on different versions of a design within a single project using Options, which the site presents as a paid-plan feature.
Libraries for reusable content
Share rooms and furniture across projects and teams through Libraries, helping standardize reusable content.
Clearances and clash detection
Specify clearances and automatically detect clashes, with the pricing page calling out editable clearances and automatic clash detection as a feature unavailable in the trial.
DWG import and live links
Import DWG files directly into projects for CAD integration, and use live links to share a project with multiple people through one link.
Seat assignment and team administration
Assign seats to users by email, revoke access when needed, and manage team purchasing through multiple individual licenses or enterprise licensing.
Use Cases
Revit-connected design coordination
Use Hypar to connect a web-based building design workflow with Revit when teams need to load a project from Revit or send selected furniture, equipment, and rooms into Hypar.
Design iteration
Use the options workflow to compare different versions of a design within a single project instead of managing separate project files.
Standardizing reusable content
Use Libraries to reuse rooms and furniture across projects and teams when you want more consistent project content.
Space planning with clash checks
Use clearances and clash detection when you need to check spatial relationships and catch conflicts during design work.
Team collaboration and access management
Use live links and team license assignment when multiple people need to work from shared project access and distributed seats.
