upmesh
upmesh is a German-hosted web and mobile construction platform that keeps drawings, IFC building models, tickets, and project files in one workspace so field and office teams stay aligned without juggling email attachments.
Picture a midsize build where half the crew still marks PDFs in one app, another group logs snags in a spreadsheet, and the BIM lead emails IFC exports. upmesh pulls those threads into one place: browser access for the office, iOS and Android apps for the site, and offline capture that syncs when connectivity returns.
You can version PDF plans, drop IFC files into a built-in 3D viewer, and pin defects or tasks to the sheet or the model so responsibility stays visible. A role-based project vault, REST API hooks, and ZIP exports support handover packs or downstream analytics without rebuilding the same data twice.
Pricing starts with a free Basic workspace, then per-user Pro seats for heavier storage and reporting, plus an Enterprise path when you need custom roles, maps, or onboarding support. Data stays in ISO 27001 audited German data centers, which matters for EU public and private clients who audit residency and access controls.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Clear free tier for evaluation with up to five projects on Basic.
- IFC viewing and 3D placement of tickets without a separate desktop viewer.
- German hosting and ISO 27001 positioning for EU data residency expectations.
- Subcontractor-friendly model where observer and subcontractor seats can stay on Basic while leads use Pro.
Cons
- Enterprise capabilities such as street maps, company-wide lists, and deeper API support require a sales conversation.
- Primary authoring still happens in CAD or BIM tools; upmesh focuses on coordination and documentation rather than modeling.
- Public pricing shows two Pro price points on the same page; confirm the active rate and tax treatment before purchase.
Key features
IFC in the browser: Import IFC files and open them in the integrated 3D viewer for model-based coordination.
Plan versioning: Upload PDF construction drawings, track versions, and carry tickets forward when a sheet updates.
Offline-first mobile: Capture photos, comments, and tickets on iOS or Android without a live connection; sync when back online.
CDE-style filing: Central project library with folders, permissions, and history suited to audit-ready documentation.
REST API: Documented HTTP API for exports or integrations such as Microsoft Power BI and internal ERP workflows.
Time and reporting: Log project or labor time, use report templates, and export filtered ticket lists to PDF.

Frequently asked questions
How much does upmesh Pro cost per user?
The public pricing page lists Pro at 49 EUR per user per month in one column and 59 EUR per user per month in another, which usually reflects annual versus monthly billing or a regional display quirk. Basic stays free with up to five projects, two project roles, 500 MB storage, and free subcontractor-style users. Enterprise is priced on request with extended roles, API support, and onboarding. Confirm the live figure on upmesh.de/preise before you sign.
Can I run upmesh on a Mac or only Windows?
Desktop access runs in a modern web browser, so macOS, Windows, and Linux desktops work as long as the browser is supported. Native offline work targets the iOS and Android apps from the App Store and Google Play. There is no separate macOS desktop installer because the product is cloud-first with mobile clients.
Does upmesh support IFC files and Revit models?
The vendor documents IFC import and an integrated 3D viewer for model navigation, tickets tied to geometry, and BIM coordination workflows. Construction drawings are handled as PDF uploads with versioning. Native Autodesk Revit project files are not advertised as directly openable; teams typically publish IFC or PDF exports from Revit into upmesh for coordination.
Can our site team log defects without mobile data?
Yes. Mobile apps are described as offline-first: you can create tickets, attach photos, and edit work offline, then sync automatically when the device reconnects. That pattern suits basements, shells, and temporary dead zones where LTE drops but documentation still has to continue.
How does upmesh compare with email, shared drives, and ad hoc chat for construction coordination?
upmesh replaces fragmented email threads with structured tickets, plan locations, and model pins tied to one project record. Plan versions stay centralized instead of living as attachments with ambiguous filenames, and exports or the REST API give you a path to formal reports or BI instead of retyping spreadsheet totals.
Who is upmesh built for in the AEC market?
Marketing pages call out general contractors, project controllers, owners, architects and engineers, facility managers, and public authorities managing complex German-speaking projects. The stack scales from small trades that need quick mobile capture up to enterprises that require custom roles, company-wide standard lists, and API-backed integrations.
