ScanBIM MCP — The AI Hub for AEC

Give Claude, ChatGPT, and any AI agent the ability to upload, convert, view, analyze, and share BIM models across 50+ formats.

Upload a .rvt file. Get back a shareable 3D viewer link with QR code. Run clash detection with 20 years of VDC intelligence. Create RFIs. Launch VR walkthroughs. No software install needed.

VDC Intelligence Engine

Clash detection powered by 20 years of field experience encoded into D1-backed rules:

• 9 severity rules — SMACNA, NEC, ACI 318, AISC, ASCE 7 standards
• 5 coordination standards — MEP clearance, structural proximity
• Fix suggestions — Real construction advice, not generic "move element"
• Rework estimation — Hours-to-fix based on actual project data
