ClashWise - Clash Coordination for Navisworks®

IssueLab Limited

Prepare, publish and coordinate Autodesk® Navisworks® clashes. Review Search Sets and tests, apply local AI titles, route by matrix, work with Wise, and sync agreed changes back.

Trial

ClashWise adds a reviewed coordination workflow to Navisworks Manage. Navisworks performs the clash detection; ClashWise helps the team prepare the tests, understand the results, coordinate decisions and keep agreed clash data in step with the cloud workspace.

COORDINATION SETUP

Coordination Setup scans the federation and lets you confirm source properties, label formats and model assignments. Review proposed Search Sets, Clash Tests, matrix coverage, exclusions and computed grid/level sets before creating or updating native artifacts.

EXPLICIT MODEL ASSIGNMENTS

Assign each appended model by a typed value or model property, set its discipline and add level overrides. The same confirmed mapping drives setup, local titles, matrices and publishing. Drafts remain separate until saved, with visible revision conflicts for project-synchronized mappings.

SEARCH SET AND CLASH TEST WORKBENCHES

Build reusable Search Sets with explicit AND/OR conditions, inclusions, exclusions and model/location scope. Preview matches before saving. Create and update managed Clash Tests while preserving their Clash Detective identity; edit name, type and tolerance, review A/B selection readiness and run checked tests in sequence.

RUN AND PUBLISH

Combine selected tests, optional local titles, optional grouping, context choices and one or more create/update destinations in a single reviewed batch. Reuse current results or rerun tests, recover cloud-accepted work after an uncertain connection and keep saved choices with the federation.

LOCAL AI TITLES INCLUDED

Replace generic clash IDs with reviewable titles in 11 languages. Choose six built-in naming standards or a custom token format, then edit, regenerate, reject or retry proposals before applying them. Local generation runs on the user's CPU and can work offline after setup.

RULE-BASED ROUTING

Connect a clash matrix that defines class/discipline pairs, tolerance, priority, status and responsible contacts. Published clashes are analyzed against the reviewed rules, while adjusted or stale values remain visible instead of being silently overwritten.

WISE INSIDE NAVISWORKS

Use the Wise dock to query a published scope, inspect issue-sheet clash cards, capture a screenshot or dictate a request. Wise can apply supported status, priority, contact, due-date, comment, title and matrix actions; changes remain visible and subject to product permissions.

CLASH WORKSPACE AND SYNC

Review scope/tag filters, analysis distributions, selected fields, comments and optional grouping before synchronizing. Status, responsible contact, priority and comments can move between ClashWise and Navisworks on supported versions; native priority write-back requires Navisworks 2026 or 2027. Web title edits survive republish but are not currently pushed back into Navisworks.

WEB COORDINATION

Use dashboards, the browser 3D viewer, password-protected read-only shares, BCF 2.1 / Excel / CSV exports and live Coordination Sessions. Active sessions automatically record supported clash edits; decisions and action items feed the saved record and AI-drafted minutes.

SUPPORTED HOSTS AND TRIAL

Autodesk Navisworks Manage 2024–2027 on 64-bit Windows. The Marketplace download is free. New accounts receive a 14-day Pro trial without a credit card; Starter is included. Plans are managed directly at clashwise.ai.

Note: ClashWise writes only the approved clash/workflow data needed for these tools; it does not alter model geometry. The app uses a custom per-user installer.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

  • Plans: Starter covers local plug-in preparation. Pro adds one shared cloud coordination workspace. Business adds multiple projects, project-scoped visibility, project roles and a company matrix library. See the current prices and allowances at https://clashwise.ai/pricing.
  • Data boundary: local title generation can remain on the computer when cloud fallback is off. Publishing, Wise, Context Models, web coordination and support reporting transmit the data required for those requested services.
  • Hardware: 64-bit Windows, Autodesk Navisworks Manage 2024–2027, a recent multi-core CPU, 16 GB RAM and enough disk space for the selected local AI model/cache are recommended. The current local engine runs on CPU.
  • Known limitations: native priority write-back requires Navisworks 2026–2027. Web title edits are preserved when a set is republished but do not yet sync back into Navisworks. Saved local mappings/presets are scoped to their federation and user/environment rules.
