A lot of people who don't have 3D modelling skills can use Revizto
Richard Wager, Technical Director at Becca, shares how Revizto has changed the way his building services team collaborates on complex healthcare design. Working on the Denon Hospital project, Richard's team needed a way to bring non-modelers into the conversation — giving them direct visibility into the model without requiring Revit skills.
However, with Revizto, team members who had never worked in 3D could navigate the model, annotate directly, and follow the full thread of a comment from first flag to resolution.
For Richard, one of the most valuable outcomes is what he calls "design confidence" — a clearer understanding of how much thought has gone into a given element, and at what stage of design development it sits. That visibility, he believes, will drive real efficiency gains as the project moves forward.
"It's increased the transparency of what we're modeling. A lot of people who don't have 3D modeling skills can use Revizto to see what's happening and directly direct the team."
