Pele AI plug-in uses natural language prompts to automate and streamline repetitive tasks
Pele AI is a new AI BIM Assistant for Revit designed to simplify, automate and streamline manual tasks such as tagging elements, generating views, organising sheets or graphically modifying elements.
The Revit add-in understands plain language instructions, bypassing the need for technical scripts or complex syntax.
Pele AI analyses the prompt, determines the necessary steps, and then executes the task in Revit. If the command is unclear or too complex, the software will reattempt execution. If it still cannot complete the task, it will notify the user and suggest that refining the input might improve the results.
Example prompts include:
- Create a building with 200m2 area as a rectangle, 6 storeys high
- Open all the floorplans that have a scale of 1:20
- Select any floors thinner than 400mm
- Make dimensions for the rooms in this plan view
- Highlight clashes between ducts and beams in this 3D view.
Pele is available through the Autodesk App store and supports Revit versions 2021 through 2025. The software is free to download, and a free trial gives users 20 prompts. The software is then charged per prompt – a 500-prompt bundle, for example costs $40.
