AVAIL for Revit
AVAIL for Revit is a Revit-integrated content library system that helps AEC teams search, preview, and place approved BIM content with tagging, channels, and desktop-to-cloud workflows tied to AVAIL Desktop and common storage providers.
AVAIL is a content management platform built for architecture, engineering, and construction teams that need a governed library instead of ad hoc network folders. The AVAIL for Revit experience focuses on fast discovery: visual browsing, metadata-driven filters, and drag-and-drop placement so drafters spend less time hunting for the right family or template.
The paid AVAIL plan is listed at $25 per user per month or $250 per user per year on the vendor pricing page, with a Free tier that supports one publisher, unlimited free consumer users, two channels, and up to 1,500 items per channel (AVAIL, 2026). Enterprise adds SSO, automation, analytics, and related controls, with sales-led quotes for larger rollouts.
Beyond Revit, AVAIL ships desktop and in-app browsers for multiple host applications (for example SketchUp, Rhino, 3ds Max, AutoCAD, and Civil 3D on paid tiers), plus integrations with cloud storage and construction platforms such as Autodesk Construction Cloud, Microsoft SharePoint and OneDrive, and Google Drive. Workflows like Harvest Mode, host-in-cloud delivery, and collaboration features (for example flags and comments on paid tiers) target firms that publish libraries centrally and need consumers to pull only approved content.
Licensing is named-user, and the vendor states installs may exist on multiple machines with non-concurrent use. That pattern matches how many offices deploy library tools: a small set of publishers maintains channels, while many project users consume content under controlled permissions.

Frequently asked questions
How much does AVAIL cost per user per month?
The public pricing page lists the AVAIL plan at $25 per user per month or $250 per user per year in US dollars. A Free plan exists with channel and item caps. Enterprise pricing is quote-based. Confirm current numbers on getavail.com/pricing before you budget.
What is included in AVAIL Free versus paid AVAIL?
Free supports one publisher, unlimited free consumer users, two channels, and up to 1,500 items per channel, plus AVAIL for Revit Project Navigator and Marketplace access with some marketplace channels requiring extra subscriptions. Paid AVAIL adds unlimited channels with a higher per-channel item cap, Harvest Mode, AVAIL Host in Cloud, collaboration tools such as flags and comments, and additional host applications including AutoCAD and Civil 3D.
Does AVAIL work with BIM 360 or Autodesk Construction Cloud?
Yes. AVAIL states integrations with BIM 360 and cloud storage providers such as SharePoint, OneDrive, and Google Drive across its subscription tiers. Validate connector behavior, permissions, and your ACC hub setup with a pilot library before firm-wide rollout.
Can AVAIL manage Dynamo graphs and non-Revit files?
AVAIL markets multi-format libraries that can include supporting assets beyond RFA and RVT, depending on how you structure channels. Treat non-Revit files as first-class library objects only if your governance plan covers previews, versioning, and ownership for those assets.
How is AVAIL licensed for a workstation?
AVAIL documents named-user licensing with installation on multiple computers and non-concurrent use. That means one person may sign in from one active session at a time across machines, not simultaneous multi-user sharing of a single named license.
AVAIL vs Unifi or other Revit library tools: how do I choose?
Compare catalog features you will actually operate: publisher versus consumer roles, Revit placement UX, channel governance, cloud connectors, analytics, and SSO needs. Run a pilot on your worst-case content set (large families, templates, and detail sets) and measure search time, misfires, and admin overhead before you standardize.
Does AVAIL offer single sign-on?
Single sign-on and directory integration appear on the Enterprise tier, with the vendor describing work alongside IT to connect providers such as Active Directory or Azure AD. Expect a sales and implementation conversation rather than a self-serve toggle.
