Maxon has announced that Redshift now integrates with Autodesk Revit, bringing real-time, ray-traced rendering directly into the widely used BIM platform. The company also opened beta sign-ups for Redshift for Graphisoft Archicad, expanding its architectural visualization offerings across the AEC sector. Redshift for Archviz enables architects and interior designers to create photorealistic renders and immersive walkthroughs without leaving their BIM environment. The integration features live BIM synchronisation for rapid design iteration and stores visualisation data directly in the host software. Maxon showcased the integrations at the AIA Conference on Architecture & Design 2026 in San Diego from 10-13 June. New platform features include depth of field effects, AI-powered asset search, and simplified vegetation asset integration. The Redshift for Archicad beta aims for commercial release later in 2026.

Maxon has announced major expansions making its professional creative tools more accessible, including Cinema 4D for iPad, a free version of Autograph, and support for Windows on Arm devices. Cinema 4D for iPad, launching in late 2026, will bring professional 3D modelling to mobile platforms for the first time, optimised for touch workflows. Autograph, Maxon's motion graphics and compositing application, returns as a free download for individual users with full core features. The company is also expanding its entire ecosystem to Windows on Arm devices, with ZBrush, Cinema 4D and Red Giant tools now available on compatible tablets and desktops. These announcements will be showcased at NAB 2026 in Las Vegas from 18-22 April.

Maxon has launched Redshift for Vectorworks, marking its official entry into the architecture, engineering and construction market. The company has also opened beta sign-ups for Redshift for Autodesk Revit, with Graphisoft Archicad integration planned for later in 2026. The solution brings Maxon's cinema-quality rendering technology directly into CAD and BIM platforms, enabling real-time design previews and photorealistic renders. It includes intelligent asset libraries, procedural tools, AI-assisted search, and full Mac and Windows compatibility. Redshift for Vectorworks is available now through Maxon or Vectorworks at what the company claims is a significantly lower price than market alternatives. The integration allows single-click project transfers to Cinema 4D for advanced modelling, animation and rendering. Maxon has raised $295 million to date.
