What's new in Bimly

Every release during the open beta lands here — features, improvements, and fixes. Bookmark this page to see exactly when something changed.

  1. More pages, IFC upload fix

    • Fixed
      Fixed IFC uploads stalling on certain files

      Some IFC files would stall after upload and never finish importing. Anyone affected can retry — they should now go through. Apologies for the inconvenience.

    • Added
      Use-case pages and side-by-side comparisons

      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.

    • Improved
      Clearer open-beta banner, favicons added

      Both the website and the app now show a more visible open-beta banner with a direct link for feature requests and bug reports.

  2. Faster 3D viewer + AI explanations

    • Improved
      3D viewer is much faster on multi-thousand-element models

      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.

    • Added
      AI explains validation findings in plain language

      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.

    • Added
      Transfer workspace ownership to another member

      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.

    • Fixed
      IFC export now writes spec-correct GUIDs

      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.

  3. AI features + auth screens redesigned

    • Added
      Natural-language element search and edits

      "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.

    • Improved
      Signup, login, and password-reset screens redesigned

      Clearer error states, required-field marks, and a single design system across every form.

    • Improved
      Account emails are now delivered reliably

      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.

  4. Bimly open beta launch

    • Added
      Bimly open beta is live

      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.
