Use Revit concepts in Miro architectural reviews

RunDiffusion for Miro also connects with RunDiffusion for Revit through the selected workspace library. Generate a concept from a Revit view, then open the same RunDiffusion account in Miro and drag the result onto the board.

  • Generate from a Revit view. Create a visual concept from the project view with RunDiffusion for Revit.
  • Open the same workspace in Miro. Select the RunDiffusion account that contains the generated image.
  • Review and refine. Drag the concept onto the board, compare it with other directions, and use a selected image as input for the next iteration.

This Revit-to-Miro workflow gives architecture teams a direct path from a BIM view to a collaborative design review without manually downloading and re-uploading the generated result.
