iBuild List is a professional Autodesk® Inventor® add-in for organizing multi-body part designs. It analyzes the solid bodies in a part file and generates a structured build list, so you can quickly assess component quantities and establish a clear connection between geometry and manufacturing requirements.
The workflow uses part files to guide design development. Rather than switching between multiple files, you can modify, compare, and arrange many bodies within a single Inventor part. This approach maintains design clarity, speeds up modifications, and keeps the model coherent while a project is still active.
Key features
- Organized build lists generated directly from multi-body parts
- Automated detection and grouping of matching bodies
- Material assignment at the body level
- Customizable part numbers and types, with visual markers
- Color-coding for body groups and unique components
- Quantity visibility for repeated or identical parts
- Flexible group reordering to match your manufacturing or assembly preferences
- Build list or bill of materials (BOM) export to Microsoft® Excel® for manufacturing operations
- Less manual body counting, renaming, and tracking
The add-in is aimed at designers who prefer in-context modeling workflows. It makes multi-body approaches more practical by letting you model everything together, then organize the results into clean lists for review, quoting, fabrication, or documentation.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
What else should I know about this product?
Please note: bodies with a large amount of detail will significantly increase comparison processing time. If your part contains items that are not intended to be sent for manufacturing—such as tires with full tread detail, or similar highly detailed components—we recommend suppressing them before you run Build List. Features that work around some of these challenges are planned for a future release.
