Interactive PDF Plan Viewer, Warranty Tracking, Export Enhancements & More
This release introduces an interactive PDF plan viewer on the web, a new warranty tracking card on the building home dashboard, and improved file downloading capabilities. We have also restored key thermal insulation details across building assets, and expanded reporting completeness.
What’s New in This Release
1. Web PDF Floor Plan Viewer (Experimental)
Visual models with pdf floor plans only, will render faster, and have better clarity for pdfs.
- Availability & Requirements: This feature is currently hidden behind a feature flag in Experiments and currently applies ONLY to visual models consisting solely of PDFs.
- First-Time Load Note: Models containing only PDFs will initially display with green, empty floors upon first load. Selecting a floor will render the proper PDF file and interactive overview.

The pdf viewer will eventually be better also for visual twins with combinations of pdfs and other files.
2. Building Home Dashboard Warranty Expiration Card (Preview)
Keep track of equipment lifecycles and coverage with our new "Warranty Expiring" KPI card on the building dashboard. It automatically highlights assets with warranties ending within the next six months and provides direct links to inspect each item.

If you want to see expired warranties, just edit the filter in the list.
3. Enhanced File List Downloads & Filtering
You can now add flexible filters from the file list to export and download only the files you need.

You can download/export a maximum of 500 files at a time, and you will be notified by email when export is done. The download link is active for 1 hour.
4. Thermal Insulation Data (U-Values) Restored
You can now easily track thermal performance and positioning across your properties with new entry fields for Window type, Facade orientation, and U-value on the assets.

For now we have these fields available for all assets, disregarding classification.
5. Complete Asset Markdown Exports
Reporting is now more comprehensive. Markdown exports have been updated to include all asset properties, ensuring full data fidelity when exporting building assets for external analysis or reporting.

This allows downloading either or normal pdf, or a markdown file that is specifically targeted to use with your own AI agents for further processing.

Smarter Exports, Smoother Interactions & Enhanced Control
We have been hard at work refining your workflow! This update streamlines your contact management, and optimizes how the platform responds to your clicks and taps.
Here is everything you need to know about what is new and improved.
Enhanced Contact & CSV Exports
Managing and sharing your contact data just got a lot more flexible.
- Comprehensive Data Exports: You can now export all essential contact data—including names, email addresses, and phone numbers—directly into Excel or CSV formats.
- Visual Handoffs: To make data handoffs seamless, CSV exports now include captured images, ensuring your team has all the visual context they need right inside the file.
Optimized Device Interactions (Raycasting)
We’ve fine-tuned how the platform detects and responds to your inputs, tailoring the experience whether you are working on a tablet or a desktop.
What is Raycasting? Think of raycasting as the system's invisible laser pointer. Every time you click with a mouse or tap a touchscreen, the app shoots an invisible "ray" from your finger or cursor into the screen to figure out exactly what object or button you are trying to interact with.
We have optimized this technology to prevent accidental clicks and improve responsiveness:
- For Touch Devices: Raycasting has been calibrated so touch inputs only trigger actions on a deliberate tap—meaning fewer accidental triggers while scrolling or gesturing.
- For Desktops: Mouse interactions remain highly responsive but are now throttled behind the scenes, reducing unnecessary system strain and boosting efficiency.
- Interruption-Free Performance: General under-the-hood improvements ensure everything runs smoothly in the background.

🏗️ The Big News: Real Offline Mode for 3D Buildings
You no longer need an internet connection to view your 3D building models. The app now handles the heavy lifting in the background so you can keep working offline.
- Automatic Saving: The app now automatically saves the last 3 buildings you opened directly to your phone.
- A Cleaner Offline View: When you lose signal, the "Twin" tab automatically changes to show you a clean list of exactly which buildings are saved and ready to view offline. To keep things simple, tabs that absolutely require internet will temporarily hide themselves until you're back online.
- Starts from Scratch Without Signal: Even if your phone is completely offline before you even open the app, you can still launch it safely and get straight to work.
- Safe and Secure: You’ll stay securely logged in while offline. If you share a device and explicitly log out, the app instantly wipes all cached building data to keep things secure.
🌍 Language Updates
