How to Run a BIM Workflow Online — Without Desktop Software

Move your BIM workflow into the browser: shared workspace, multiplayer coordination rooms, saved automation pipelines, IFC viewing, and validation. The online BIM platform alternative to a desktop-only stack.

BIMCamel is a free, browser-based tool for managing IFC files. You do not need to download or install any software. Everything runs in your web browser, on any device, on any operating system.

What can you do with BIMCamel?

Reduce IFC file size — typically 30–70%, and more with the aggressive box-collapse preset.
Merge multiple IFC files from different disciplines into one.
Split large models by floor, building, or element type.
Clean up orphaned geometry, remove metadata, and strip materials.
Export to glTF, OBJ, STEP, SVG, Excel, and COBie formats.
Validate your model against buildingSMART IDS specifications.
Detect clashes between building elements.
Automate repetitive tasks with saved pipelines.

How to get started

Open BIMCamel in your web browser — no account required for basic features.
Drop your IFC file on the upload area.
Pick a tool from the grid and click Run Task.
Download your processed file.

Is it really free?

Yes. Every tool works without an account — guests get 25 MB uploads and 3 runs per day. A free account raises those limits to 100 MB and 10 runs per day, plus job history and saved pipelines you can re-run. Pro (€19/month, 500 MB) and Team (€49/month, 1 GB) lift the caps further — but every tool stays free on every tier; the paid plans buy quantity, not features.

Is my data safe?

Your files are processed securely on our servers and deleted when your retention window ends — guests are stream-only (nothing is stored), and a free account keeps results for 7 days. We never share your data with anyone.

Why use an online tool instead of desktop software?

No installation means no IT approvals, no license fees, and no updates to manage.
Works on Windows, Mac, Linux, and even tablets.
You can process files from any computer — at the office, at home, or on site.
Share results instantly with colleagues and clients.

BIMCamel gives you the most common IFC management tasks in one place, with a clean interface that anyone on a project team can use — not just BIM specialists.
