Frequently asked questions.
Quick answers about supported IFC versions, data privacy, billing, IDS file import, BCF export and enterprise options.
Do I need to install software?
No. IFCLint runs entirely in the browser. No installation, no plugin, no local software.
Which IFC versions are supported?
IFC2x3, IFC4 and IFC4x3 — the common formats of all CAD programs.
How does billing work?
All paid plans are flat-fee per organisation — all team members are included. The plan scales with projects, uploads and storage, not with users. Monthly or yearly (−10 %) via PayPal.
What happens after the 30-day trial?
The workspace enters read-only mode. You can still sign in, but uploads and validations are disabled until you upgrade to a paid plan.
Can I use IDS files?
Yes. IFCLint supports the full IDS 1.0 standard — import, export and direct validation.
Where is my data stored?
In the EU (Frankfurt). Your IFC files and results stay in Europe and are subject to GDPR.
