UNIFI for Revit is a BIM content library, continued as Autodesk Content Catalog, that lets a team search Revit families and insert approved files from the cloud instead of a shared folder.

Approved families used to sit in a folder tree that could not be searched by parameter. This catalog stores the file as a BIM object, so someone can open family types and parameter values before the family goes into a model. The same library can hold other design files, including PDFs, not only Revit content.

The Revit add-in searches that library and inserts a file that matches the open project. Autodesk's feature page lists that Revit integration for versions 2021 through 2025, while UNIFI's Content Catalog page still says Revit 2022 through 2026, so check the installer against the year you run. Civil 3D and AutoCAD can insert DWG and DXF, Rhino can insert 3DS, 3DM, and OBJ, and other hosted files are downloaded rather than inserted.

An admin turns the catalog on from Forma Hub Admin, or from the Account Admin Library path still described on the UNIFI site. Content storage is listed for the US, Australia, and EU regional offerings. Canada, Germany, India, Japan, and the UK offerings are not supported for storing that content.

Several UNIFI Pro habits are absent from Content Catalog: favorites, ratings, personal saved searches, manufacturer content, shared parameter management, APIs, and Project Analytics. Autodesk is aiming to move UNIFI Pro-only customers who do not have Project Analytics off the old platform by the end of July 2026. Project Analytics is pointed at a separate beta, Autodesk Model Analytics, rather than into this catalog.

Content Catalog (no separate price)

Contact sales

Autodesk's Content Catalog page says the catalog has no additional charge for subscribers who already have Forma Data Management or Forma Data Management Essentials. Named offerings that include Forma Data Management: Autodesk Forma, the AEC Collection, Forma Design Collaboration, Forma Build, Forma Takeoff, Forma Site Design, Forma Building Design, standalone Forma Data Management, and Essentials that comes with standalone AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and Revit. An extra Forma Data Management seat is required if the person who needs the catalog does not already have one. UNIFI's page still describes the same entitlement as Autodesk Docs (AEC Collection, BIM Collaborate, BIM Collaborate Pro, Build, Takeoff, or Docs). There is no standalone UNIFI list price on these pages. The subscription on your account must include the right entitlement.

Prices come from each vendor’s public listings and can change. Double-check the current price on the vendor site before you buy.

Frequently asked questions

How much does UNIFI for Revit or Content Catalog cost?

Content Catalog has no separate price. Autodesk includes it for subscribers who already have Forma Data Management or Forma Data Management Essentials, which covers Forma, the AEC Collection, several Forma products, standalone Forma Data Management, and the Essentials seat that comes with standalone AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and Revit. If the person who needs the catalog does not have that seat, an additional Forma Data Management subscription has to be purchased. UNIFI's own page still describes the entitlement as Autodesk Docs, and it does not publish a standalone UNIFI price.

Which Revit versions does the Content Catalog add-in support?

Autodesk's Content Catalog feature page lists in-app support for Revit 2021 through 2025, plus Civil 3D, AutoCAD, and Rhino. UNIFI's Content Catalog page says the launch integration was Revit 2022 through 2026, Civil 3D, and CAD. Those two pages do not match, so confirm the year on the installer before you roll it out. The add-in runs on Windows, and the library itself is a website.

What file formats can UNIFI and Content Catalog store or insert?

Revit families can be searched, previewed, and inserted into the open model. AutoCAD and Civil 3D can insert DWG and DXF, and Rhino can insert 3DS, 3DM, and OBJ. Most other file types, including PDFs, can be stored and then downloaded. IFC is not named as an insert format on these pages.

Does Content Catalog replace a shared folder of Revit families?

UNIFI describes the product as a content system for BIM files, not a generic drive. A Revit family stored here can be opened down to family types and parameters. The same page says other cloud drives often treat an RFA as an unrecognized file. Teams also get version control, collections, tags, and an approve-or-decline step.

Is UNIFI Pro being replaced by Content Catalog?

Autodesk's UNIFI page says Content Catalog was formerly UNIFI Pro, and it is targeting the end of July 2026 to move UNIFI Pro-only customers who do not have Project Analytics off the old platform. Project Analytics is not included in Content Catalog. It is being offered separately as Autodesk Model Analytics, which the page calls a public beta. Favorites, ratings, personal saved searches, manufacturer content, shared parameter management, and APIs are also absent from Content Catalog.

Who is UNIFI for Revit for?

UNIFI says the library is not only for BIM managers. Anyone who needs BIM data can use the web app, including for quantities and a 3D preview, and designers insert approved content from the Revit, AutoCAD, Civil 3D, or Rhino add-in. External people still need their own qualifying seat. Access is not shared from someone else's login.
