Pricing. You can try it free before you buy. Paid plans start at $97 a month. See full pricing · Updated November 3, 2026

Glyph by EvolveLAB is a Revit plugin that automates documentation production (views, sheets, tagging, and dimensioning) so teams can run repeatable tasks and bundles against model data instead of walking every sheet by hand.

Revit teams use Glyph to batch documentation steps that otherwise take a long time on large sheet sets: creating views, placing views on sheets, tagging, and dimensioning using categories, filters, rooms, levels, or scope boxes. EvolveLAB and Chaos storefront pages in early 2026 listed a named-user plan around $97 per month, a 15-day trial, and additional floating and student license types (EvolveLAB, 2026).

Inside Revit, tasks read model and parameter data so drafters can apply office standards with selection scopes, sheet-wide runs, and optional work in the active view. Options cover titleblocks, naming patterns, tag types, leaders, and dimension references so outputs stay aligned with how your firm documents projects.

Bundles chain several tasks into one run and can be shared across projects when you want the same definitions everywhere. EvolveLAB also promotes Glyph Copilot as an AI-assisted path for documentation; treat AI features as version-specific and confirm behavior in release notes before you rely on them in production.

Downloads and subscription management are handled through Chaos account flows linked from EvolveLAB. Check the vendor site for supported Revit builds, trial limits, and license transfer rules that apply to your contract.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Cuts repetitive sheet and view work inside Revit instead of exporting to another tool.
  • Bundles help standardize multi-step documentation runs across a project portfolio.
  • Category and filter-driven selections reduce hand-picking elements on every sheet.
  • Student pricing is published separately from commercial seats for qualified users.

Cons

  • Windows Revit workflows only; there is no macOS Revit host for the same desktop experience.
  • Advanced office rules may still need tuning when models use unusual families or linked files.
  • AI-related features can change between releases, so validate outputs on real deliverables.
  • License administration flows through Chaos; account issues can block downloads or activation.

Key features

  • View automation: Generate common plan types, RCPs, elevations, sections, and 3D views from levels, rooms, scope boxes, or categories.

  • Sheet automation: Build sheets from levels, scope boxes, rooms, or spreadsheet-driven inputs and place views with titleblock control.

  • Tagging tasks: Tag by category across views or sheets with leader behavior and tag type choices.

  • Dimensioning tasks: Dimension by category across views or sheets with tie conditions and reference choices.

  • Bundles: Chain tasks into one run and share bundle settings between projects for consistent documentation rules.

  • Licensing: Named, floating, and student options sold through Chaos-linked flows; verify current prices on the vendor shop.

  • Glyph Copilot: Vendor-marketed AI assistance for documentation workflows; confirm availability for your Revit version.

Frequently asked questions

What does Glyph do in Revit?

Glyph automates documentation steps such as creating views and sheets, tagging by category, and dimensioning by category using model and parameter data. EvolveLAB describes it as a Revit plugin focused on documentation automation rather than general-purpose visual programming.

How much does Glyph cost per month?

EvolveLAB and Chaos shop pages in early 2026 listed a named license around $97 per month and a floating annual option with a lower effective monthly rate, plus student pricing. Prices change, so confirm the current quote on the official shop before you buy.

Is there a Glyph free trial?

The vendor advertises a 15-day trial through Chaos download flows. Check the current trial length, Revit versions supported, and any account requirements on the official download page.

Does Glyph replace Dynamo or Grasshopper?

No. Glyph is built for documentation automation inside Revit, such as views, sheets, tags, and dimensions. Dynamo and Grasshopper remain separate environments for broader computational design and custom scripting.

What is Glyph Copilot?

EvolveLAB markets Glyph Copilot as an AI-related assistant for documentation workflows inside Glyph. Availability and behavior can vary by release, so read the vendor announcement and help docs for your version before you plan production work around it.

Where do I manage Glyph subscriptions?

EvolveLAB points subscription management and downloads through Chaos account pages. If login or token errors appear, use the vendor forum and support channels rather than sharing license details in public posts.
