Thirty days, every feature.

No card, no key, no watermark on your drawings. Install the extension and start the trial inside SketchUp. If you already have a licence, the same download is yours.

What’s new in 1.0.5
  • Much faster on large models: switching storeys, OK in dialogs, FLAT and Plan no longer stall SketchUp
  • IFC quantities in the right units, and net wall area and volume with openings deducted
  • Washbasins, baths, showers, WCs and sinks from the library get cold and hot water ports

  1. Open Window → Extension Manager in SketchUp.
  2. Click Install Extension and choose the downloaded .rbz file.
  3. Restart SketchUp.

2. Start the trial

  1. Open Extensions → Archeform → License… — it also opens by itself the first time you pick a drawing tool.
  2. Tick the licence agreement and click Start 30-day trial.

That is all. There is no key to wait for and nothing to sign up to; the thirty days start on that computer the moment you click.

Already have a licence?

In the same window, paste the key from your order e-mail, tick the licence agreement and click Activate.

More detail in the installation guide and on licence and trial.

Before you install

  • SketchUp Pro or Studio, version 2024, 2025 or 2026
  • Windows or macOS
  • SketchUp Go and SketchUp Free will not work — they have no Ruby API
  • Full IFC metadata needs SketchUp 2026 — see supported versions

What to do first

Set up storeys, draw a wall, put a window in it, and export an IFC. That is about twenty minutes and it exercises the whole chain. Start with your first storey.

Prefer to watch? The complete tutorial builds a house from an empty file to IFC in forty minutes.

When the trial ends

The extension switches to read-only: your models still open and export, you simply cannot draw or edit elements. Nothing you drew is locked away. Enter a paid key in the License window and everything is back at once.

Still deciding? You can add fourteen more days, once per computer.
