Convert RVT to GLB (Free)
Also converts STL, OBJ, PLY, USDZ, 3MF, WRL from the same file.
Runs in your browser. No upload, no signup, nothing to install.
Also from Innerscene: Circadian Lab, a free lighting calculator for room illuminance, melanopic EML, and glare.
How to convert RVT to GLB
- 1
Open your .rvt file
Drag it onto the viewer above, or click "Open an RVT File". Files up to 200 MB open directly; the parse runs in a worker so the page stays responsive.
- 2
Pick glTF Binary in the Export menu
Click Export in the toolbar, then GLB (.glb).
- 3
Download
The .glb is written in the browser and saved straight to your downloads folder. No queue, no email, no watermark.
What survives the conversion
A file conversion is a translation, and formats do not carry the same things. Here is exactly what moves from RVT into GLB, and what does not.
| Geometry | Reduced | RVT stores exact B-rep solids and GLB stores triangles, so the surfaces are tessellated. Curved faces become faceted at the display tolerance, which is fine for visualization, printing and clash checking, but not for further parametric CAD work. |
|---|---|---|
| Colors and materials | Kept | GLB carries full PBR materials, which is at least what RVT stores, so the colors come across. |
| Layers and structure | Kept | Layers survive as real layers in the GLB file, so you can still isolate and toggle them. |
| Units and scale | Kept | GLB stores an explicit unit, so the model opens at true size without rescaling. |
What the GLB writer emits: A single binary glTF with positions, normals, UVs and vertex colors, PBR materials, and each layer preserved as a named glTF node.
The source: Autodesk Revit (.rvt)
Revit 2020 and later, rebuilt from the element database: walls with their joins and openings cut, floors, roofs, ceilings, stairs, railings, columns, framing and placed families, in per-category layers.
The target: glTF Binary (.glb)
The modern web and real-time 3-D format: one self-contained file with PBR materials.
Opens in: Blender, Unity, Unreal Engine, model-viewer, Windows 3D Viewer, AR apps.
Your file never leaves your computer
Both the RVT parser and the GLB writer are JavaScript and WebAssembly running in your own browser tab. There is no upload step, no server-side conversion queue, and no copy of your file anywhere but your machine. That matters for drawings under NDA, for client work, and for anything you would not email to a stranger.
Frequently asked questions
▶Is this RVT to GLB converter free?
Yes. No signup, no watermark, no per-file limit and no paid tier. Innerscene.
▶Is my RVT file uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is read with the browser file API and converted in the same tab. Nothing is sent to a server unless you explicitly click Share, which is a separate, opt-in feature.
▶Will my colors and materials survive the GLB export?
GLB carries full PBR materials, which is at least what RVT stores, so the colors come across.
▶Do layers and named parts carry into the GLB file?
Layers survive as real layers in the GLB file, so you can still isolate and toggle them.
▶Will the GLB open at the right size?
GLB stores an explicit unit, so the model opens at true size without rescaling.
▶How large an RVT file can I convert?
Up to 200 MB, and the ceiling adapts to how much memory your device reports. The conversion runs on your own hardware, so a desktop with plenty of RAM will handle more than a phone.
▶Can I convert GLB back to RVT?
Not here. We read RVT and write GLB, but not the reverse. the universal 3D viewer
▶Which browsers does it work in?
Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android. No plugin and no extension.
