Vectorworks Inc. has partnered with fellow Nemetschek Group brand Solibri to offer users a new way to deliver quality designs confidently. With Solibri Inside, one can validate, report and modify design errors in an easy-to-use model checker directly inside Vectorworks. Created with designers' needs in mind, the new feature helps to reduce risk with fewer errors and improves efficiency with fewer file exchanges, saving architects, their consultants and clients valuable time and money.

This innovative feature now works within the latest version, Vectorworks 2023 Service Pack 3, eliminating the need for users to open another software platform to perform basic model checking. Users can ensure their BIM models comply with building regulations, national and international standards or a specific project's BIM requirements seamlessly before sharing with other project stakeholders within their workflow. Vectorworks users can install the plug-in now through the Partner Installation Palette.

The first release of Solibri Inside comes with a free standard package for checking door and window clearances and the supporting Level of Information (LOI) in one's Vectorworks building information model. Users can unlock additional features by registering a Solibri Inside account. With a Solibri Inside account, users can add Premium paid packages, giving users the ability to create customized rule checks to meet their project's BIM requirements.
