Aakaar Tools Designed by Aarsh Kandra

Tools for cleaner design data.

Free browser tools for architects, BIM and Revit teams: clean CAD drawings for Revit, turn SketchUp models into classified BIM, and prepare drawing PDFs. They run on your own computer, so your files stay private, and they come out of the same work Aakaar does on live projects.

  • Free to use
  • Runs in your browser
  • Files never uploaded
  • Built for Revit workflows

How Aakaar tools work

  • Private by design. Files are processed inside your browser tab and deleted when you leave. Nothing is uploaded or stored.
  • Made for real projects. Each tool solves a problem met on Aakaar's architecture, BIM and automation work.
  • Free and open to everyone. No account, no sign-up, no watermark on your drawings.
  • Revit first. Outputs are prepared so they import cleanly into Autodesk Revit.

Aakaar Architecture, BIM and design technology

Aakaar Tools are designed by Aarsh Kandra to remove the small, repetitive problems that slow architectural teams down: cleaning consultant CAD for Revit, and turning SketchUp design models into classified BIM. They grow out of CAD Cleaner & Smart Import, Aarsh’s add-in that cleans drawings and places them straight into Revit, and out of Aakaar’s own BIM work.
