What Catenda Hub is
Catenda Hub is a common data environment for BIM coordination, project documents, and communication among teams that design, build, and run the built environment. It manages drawings, approvals, and issues, and brings IFC models from authoring tools into a browser viewer with orbit, section, measurement, and property inspection controls. BCF 2.1 and 3.0 issues can move between Hub and tools such as Solibri, BIMcollab, and Revit with viewpoints, comments, and element selections. The platform supports IFC, BCF, and IDS, with a documented REST API, webhooks, and open-format exports for models, documents, and audit trails. Projects include unlimited users, role-based permissions, SSO, ISO 19650 workflows, and a tamper-evident audit trail. It is available via web, API, and self-hosting. Example project pricing is €400 a month for a €10M project and €1,100 a month for a €50M project; actual quotes depend on project specifics. There is no free plan.
