Every release during the open beta lands here — features, improvements, and fixes. Bookmark this page to see exactly when something changed.
When an extension such as a page translator rewrote elements on the screen, the login page could occasionally freeze. It now stays stable even with those extensions active.
If the connection dropped mid-save, a retry could create a second copy even though the server had already stored the first. The same save now takes effect only once, so a flaky connection no longer produces duplicates.
If the connection dropped and a save was retried, the opening could be created without the door or window you chose. A retry now places the door or window as specified.
On larger models, editing an element could momentarily clear the highlighted outline of the selected element. The outline now stays after an edit.
If someone changed a clash's status at the exact moment a re-run was saving its results, that change could occasionally be reverted. Status and notes are now always carried through intact.
If the optimized geometry for part of a model briefly failed to load, that part could show nothing. Anything that fails to load now falls back to drawing the full geometry instead of going blank.
When a clash-detection run failed, the spinner just stopped with no reason — easy to misread as “no clashes.” Failures now show a clear message.
Dates in BCF files from some tools weren't recognized, so an imported issue's creation date fell back to the import time. The original dates are now preserved.
A shallow interference into finely-tessellated small elements (thin round columns, pipes) could occasionally go undetected. Detection is now more accurate for these.
Added size and rate limits to BCF import so a maliciously over-compressed file can't overload the server. Normal use is unaffected.
From the “Export BCF” button on the issues panel, you can now export all issues as an industry-standard BCF (BIM Collaboration Format) 2.1 file — with each issue's title, status, priority, comments, target elements (by IFC GlobalId), and viewpoint. And with “Import BCF” you can pull in a BCF exported by Solibri, BIMcollab, Revit, and others (target elements are matched back to your model by IFC GlobalId). Coordination now flows both ways with the rest of your BIM stack.
You can now import several IFC files into one project and view them overlaid. The 3D “Models” panel lets you show or hide each model and, if their origins differ, nudge one into alignment along X/Y/Z. Import is additive — a second IFC overlays the existing model instead of replacing it — and people you share a link with see the same overlaid view.
For overlaid models you can now detect where element shapes actually intersect (collide). Run it from the 3D “Clashes” panel to get a list of interfering element pairs; click one to jump the camera to it. Elements that merely sit flush against each other are not counted as clashes. You can mark each clash Resolved or Ignored, and that status is kept when you re-run detection so reviewed clashes don’t keep reappearing. Turn any clash into an issue in one click — the viewpoint and both elements are attached automatically so you can track it with comments and status.
When several models were overlaid, the faithful (accurate-shape) view could show only the most recently imported one. It now shows every model’s accurate geometry.
Angled walls were approximated with an axis-aligned box, so their thickness could come out several times too large — showing as a thick block (up to 4.6m on one model). Walls are now fitted along their true orientation, so angled walls appear at the correct thickness and angle. Orthogonal walls are unchanged. Re-import the same IFC to pick this up.
IFC files from tools like ArchiCAD carry a huge number of software-internal fields (over 90% of the total on one model). These were imported first and filled the limit, so standard properties — dimensions (length, height, volume), IsExternal, load-bearing, and the like — could get dropped. Standard properties are now imported first, so the values you need for attribute and quantity checks reliably appear. Re-import the same IFC to pick them up.
On models where doors and windows aren't exported with an explicit relationship to their host wall (common with ArchiCAD and others), most of them were dropped and vanished from the import. Doors and windows without a wall link are now imported in place and shown. On one real model, imported doors and windows went from 9 to 464. Re-import the same IFC to pick them up.
After importing an IFC, the elements were recognised but the 3D view could show only the grid — the building itself was missing. The shape data used for 3D wasn't being delivered correctly; that's now fixed. Already-imported models display correctly just by reopening them, and the “Faithful view” now appears too.
IFC files exported in millimetres (as ArchiCAD and others often do) imported with wall heights and slab thicknesses collapsed to one-thousandth of their real size, so the building appeared tiny and flattened. We fixed the unit handling; millimetre- and inch-based models now import at true scale. Affected models can be rebuilt correctly by re-importing the same IFC (metre-based models were never affected).
On large models with more than ten thousand elements, anything past the cap could quietly drop out of the element list and 3D view. Elements are now loaded in full, so nothing goes missing regardless of model size.
Screens other than the 3D viewer (workspaces, project pages, and so on) no longer load the heavy 3D engine up front, so they open faster. The 3D parts load only when you actually open a viewer.
Projects whose IFC was imported before the July 3, 2026 coordinate-accuracy fix could have slightly misplaced elements when edited in the plan view. Opening an affected project now shows a notice, and re-importing the same IFC rebuilds it at the latest accuracy. The 3D reference view already displays correctly, so viewing and sharing are unaffected. The notice can be dismissed and won't reappear.
Until now the 3D view approximated curved or complex elements with simple boxes. Turn on “Faithful view” at the top-right of the 3D screen to see the real shapes of your imported model — curved walls, sloped roofs, detailed stairs and more — exactly as they were modelled. It's view-only; switch back to the standard view to keep editing. It's prepared automatically for imported models.
When a save failed — for example because someone else changed the same element first — nothing appeared on screen and your change simply didn't take. Failures and conflicts now show a notification and the view automatically refreshes to the latest state.
Changing your password could sign you out of the device you were using — not just your other devices — forcing an immediate re-login. Your current device now stays signed in while only other devices are signed out.
Changing or resetting your password now voids any previously issued, still-unused password-reset links. Even if such a link leaked, it can no longer be used after the change.
Fixed an issue where an Admin (non-owner) member could grant themselves Owner-level access. Ownership can now only change through the dedicated Transfer Ownership flow.
When a single floor was selected, every click or hide/isolate action re-loaded the entire 3D scene, making it sluggish. The redundant reloads are gone and memory no longer creeps up over a long session.
Fixed the remaining cases: deleting every element on a floor could leave old shapes in 3D, and navigating away immediately after an edit could skip the refresh.
For models with very many properties, when some are dropped at the import cap the result now says so instead of silently omitting them.
IFC import used to bring in walls and slabs only. Columns, beams, roofs, stairs, doors and windows now show up in 3D too — doors and windows appear as wall openings. For existing projects, simply re-import the same IFC to get the improved result.
Click any imported element to see its IFC property sets (FireRating, IsExternal, …) and base quantities.
Nine more types — including curtain walls, members, plates, piles and generic elements — now import as simplified box shapes. Models look far more complete, and their properties show up in the panel like any other element.
In imported projects, newly drawn walls could fail to appear in 3D, and edits or deletions could keep showing the old shape. Changes now refresh the 3D display data automatically.
An internal cleanup task could mistakenly delete 3D display data that was still in use. All affected projects have been regenerated. Apologies for the inconvenience.
Selecting one storey could still show the whole building, with some elements at the wrong height. Only the chosen storey now renders, at its true elevation.
Slabs and roofs drawn in plan view could appear mirrored across the X axis in the 3D view only. The plan position was always correct — the 3D view now matches it.
Measure point-to-point distances (📏), hide the selected element (H), isolate it (I), bring everything back (U), and toggle visibility per kind (walls, columns, …). Press ? for the full shortcut list.
Imported walls and slabs could come in with wrong orientation and height (a coordinate-axis mix-up), and upper-floor slabs could float above their storey. Both are fixed — if a past import looked wrong, re-importing the file will now produce the correct shape.
Opening projects with many elements — and read-only shared links — now loads noticeably faster. The bigger the model, the bigger the difference.
Repeatedly selecting elements in the 3D view could slowly grow memory use over a long session. This is now fixed, so extended work stays stable.
Some IFC files would stall after upload and never finish importing. Anyone affected can retry — they should now go through. Apologies for the inconvenience.
Five use-case pages (IFC viewer, browser BIM tool, IFC sharing, automated checks, issue tracking) and three honest comparisons against Solibri, Trimble Connect, and BIMcollab. A getting-started guide is now live too.
Both the website and the app now show a more visible open-beta banner with a direct link for feature requests and bug reports.
Bimly now pre-builds 3D geometry server-side at upload time so the browser doesn't have to rebuild it on every load. Walls, slabs, columns, beams, roofs, and stairs all covered.
Click any finding from the automated checks and an AI assistant summarises — in two to four sentences — what failed, why it matters, and the most likely fix.
An owner can now hand the workspace off to another member from the members list. The target must have a verified email address, and the action is gated by a typed-confirmation prompt.
Other BIM tools (Solibri, Revit, IfcOpenShell) sometimes rejected Bimly's exported IFC because of a non-standard GUID format. Now uses the proper 22-character encoding.
"Set the wall thickness on floor 3 to 200 mm" gets turned into a concrete edit proposal. The user reviews the proposal before it applies — Bimly never lets AI write to the model directly.
Clearer error states, required-field marks, and a single design system across every form.
Verification and password-reset emails now ship via a commercial transactional-email provider, with proper authentication so they reach the inbox. Sender: noreply@bimly.net.
First public beta. IFC upload, 3D viewing, issue tracking with comments, automated checks, shareable links, and IFC export are all working. Feedback of any kind is welcome at support@jp-info-tech.com.
