What is Sefaira used for?
Sefaira is targeted towards architects, engineers, consultants and building designers. It performs whole-building physics-based analysis of water, carbon and renewable energy potential allowing designers and architects to explore design options. The software includes support for SketchUp.
Does sefaira come with SketchUp?
Does the Studio Trial still include Sefaira? No. The commercial version of SketchUp Studio does not include Sefaira anymore so neither does the trial.
How do I install sefaira in SketchUp?

The main difference is that the Studio bundle includes the building performance analysis software, Sefaira.
What is Revit insight?
Insight empowers architects and engineers to design more energy-efficient buildings with advanced simulation engines and building performance analysis data integrated in Revit.
What is green building model?

Is SketchUp software free?
SketchUp Free is the simplest free 3D modeling software on the web — no strings attached. Bring your 3D design online, and have your SketchUp projects with you wherever you go. You don’t need thousands of bells and whistles to draw in 3D… All you need is your idea, and room to draw.
What is the difference between insights and analysis?
There’s a significant difference between the two terms, however, particularly when dealing with data. Analysis is something you control, while insight is the unknown that you seek. Because insight is unknown, you need a stage in between that’s controllable and determines your analysis: namely an objective.
Is Autodesk Insight free?
Insight 360 is available as a subscription benefit of Autodesk Revit and FormIt 360 Pro. Download the Revit plugin from the Downloads page at insight360.autodesk.com. With FormIt 360 Pro, no downloads are needed. Just select the Energy Cost icon to generate or access your insights.
