AI tagging in Revit: an AI agent that tags your MEPF drawings
RayCAD is AI tagging for Revit. It does the whole MEPF tagging task on your machine, and your team moves from placing tags to reviewing them.
On this page
AI tagging in Revit is the idea that the software does the tagging and the drafter signs it off. RayCAD is built around that idea. You hand it a view and your firm's standard, and it carries out the entire tagging task.
An agent for the tagging task
RayCAD behaves like an AI agent for Revit tagging. It reads the elements in the view, works out which tags the drawing needs, reads each value from the model, finds a clear place for every tag, and writes the tags into Revit. It then reports back on whatever it could not settle. You start it with one command, and everything between the command and the report happens without you.
The placement is trained on a large number of well-tagged sheets produced by humans, which is why the output looks like a person laid it out. See how RayCAD places tags.
From placing tags to reviewing them
With most tools, the drafter keeps the hard part. They place the tags and carry the responsibility. They check that tags do not overlap, that every element has the tags it needs, and that each tag shows the right information.
With RayCAD, that workflow moves to the software. The drafter sits at the review layer. They look at a short list of flagged items instead of checking every tag on the sheet. The decisions with real consequences, and the work that used to need a person's attention all day, are handled by the plugin.
This is the gap between a click saver and an agent. A click saver makes your part of the job quicker. An agent takes the job.
AI that follows your standard
An AI tagging tool is only useful if the sheets look like yours. RayCAD uses your tag families, your tag types, and your placement standard, set up once in a preset. You decide what gets tagged and how often, whether tags sit inside or outside a duct, and how leaders attach. See firm standards.
It runs on your machine
RayCAD runs inside Revit on your computer. The AI works locally, and your model data does not go to our servers. Read the details on the security page.
What it covers
AI auto tagging in RayCAD works on HVAC and piping today, in floor plans and section views. See the MEPF tagging overview. Electrical, fire protection, and structural are coming soon.
Frequently asked questions
Can AI tag a Revit drawing?
Yes. RayCAD uses AI to place MEPF tags in Revit. It picks the tags a view needs, fills them from the model, and places them the way a drafter would.
Is RayCAD a chatbot for Revit?
No. You do not type prompts. You select elements and run Auto-Tag, and RayCAD carries out the tagging task against your configured standard.
Does the AI send my Revit model to the cloud?
No. RayCAD runs on your computer, and your project data stays on your machine. See the security page for what the plugin does and does not send.
What does my team still do?
They review. RayCAD lists the tags that need a human decision in a review panel, and the drafter resolves those before the drawing is issued.
