Overview

Tally is a Revit plugin that allows architects and engineers to calculate the environmental impacts of their building material selections directly within their BIM model. It quantifies embodied environmental impacts, enabling users to run comparative analyses of design options and make informed decisions to reduce a building's carbon footprint.

✨ Key Features

  • Direct integration with Autodesk Revit
  • Whole-building Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
  • Embodied carbon calculation
  • Comparative analysis of design options
  • Bill of Materials generation from Revit model
  • Reporting for LEED and other green building standards

🎯 Key Differentiators

  • Deep, seamless integration with Autodesk Revit.
  • Developed by architects (KieranTimberlake) for designers.
  • Allows for real-time feedback on material choices as the BIM model evolves.

Unique Value: Brings powerful and accurate Life Cycle Assessment capabilities directly into the Revit design environment, where material decisions are made.

🎯 Use Cases (4)

Calculating embodied carbon for a building design. Earning LEED credits for Building Life-Cycle Impact Reduction. Comparing the environmental footprint of different structural or envelope systems. Informing material selection to meet sustainability goals.

✅ Best For

  • Used by architecture and engineering firms to conduct whole building LCAs during the design phase.

💡 Check With Vendor

Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:

  • Operational energy analysis.
  • Daylight or thermal comfort simulation.
  • Projects not using a Revit-based workflow.

🏆 Alternatives

One Click LCA eToolLCD Athena Impact Estimator

Unlike standalone tools like One Click LCA that require data import/export, Tally's direct Revit integration provides a more fluid and immediate workflow for designers.
