FenestraPro is a design-focused software platform that enhances building envelope design by optimising for energy efficiency, reducing carbon emissions from early in the design process. FenestraPro guides building designers to the optimal passive design solution related to the building envelope.
FenestraPro accelerates the design of more energy-efficient buildings by focusing on façade performance—responsible for more than half of a building’s operational energy. It simplifies performance analysis to deliver optimal passive design solutions, integrating seamlessly within BIM workflows through the FenestraPro Envelope Analysis extension for Forma and the FenestraPro for Revit application for Autodesk Revit. These tools provide real-time insight into the environmental impacts of envelope design, enabling designers and engineers to efficiently optimize for energy efficiency within the BIM process.
FenestraPro Envelope Analysis integrates with Forma, leveraging geometry, location, and surrounding context to automatically generate the optimal façade configuration and material specifications—demonstrating both regulatory compliance and best-practice performance. FenestraPro Connect, part of FenestraPro for Revit, allows Forma users to easily bring conceptual models into Revit, adding the necessary detail for a detailed Energy Analysis–ready model and enabling a continuous workflow in the Autodesk ecosystem.
As the design develops, FenestraPro for Revit uses the Revit Energy Analysis Model to automatically configure optimal windows and curtain walls, incorporating manufacturer component data to help designers select materials that maintain the most energy-efficient passive solution throughout the process. Additional features include:
Energy Analysis Model Check – identifies and resolves common issues in the Revit Energy Analysis Model, improving analysis accuracy and user confidence in the data.
Detailed Thermal Performance Analysis – delivers in-depth thermal analysis of the building envelope.
Embodied Carbon Benchmarking – helps designers understand the carbon impact of envelope-related design decisions.
FenestraPro is trusted by leading global architectural, engineering, and multi-disciplinary AEC firms to design higher-performing buildings. Learn more at www.fenestrapro.com.

Sefaira is cloud-based building performance analysis software for architects and designers using SketchUp or Revit. It runs annual energy, daylight, thermal comfort and HVAC sizing simulations powered by EnergyPlus and Radiance directly from a conceptual model. Built for early-stage design decisions, it turns full-building simulations around in minutes instead of weeks.
Insight was Autodesk's building performance analysis toolset for Revit, giving architects and engineers real-time energy, daylighting and load simulation feedback during design. It combined FormIt Pro and Revit BIM workflows with DOE-2.2 and EnergyPlus simulation engines to support sustainability reporting such as the AIA 2030 Commitment. Autodesk retired Insight Energy Analysis and Green Building Studio in 2025 in favor of Insight Carbon Analysis.
ClimateStudio is a Rhino 3D plugin that gives architects, lighting designers and building-performance consultants fast, accurate environmental analysis. It simulates daylighting, glare, electric lighting, thermal and visual comfort, and energy performance in a single workflow, with a Revit exporter for daylight models.
