Bluebeam, a Nemetschek Group company, has announced updates to its flagship Bluebeam Revu software, taking it to version 21.6. The new updates add new integrations and deliver performance boosts.

Revu 21.6

The June 2025 update adds a powerful Integrations Directory, connecting Bluebeam users with other tools and third-party ecosystems. These connections include such things as plugins and add-ons for tools such as Procore Documents, Microsoft SharePoint, Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC), and Vectorworks. These tools are accessible across subscription plans.

Alongside this major update, Revu 21.6 now runs 30 percent faster on ARM-based devices, including Microsoft Surface (these would be ARM-chip-based Windows laptops) and Apple’s M-series Mac computers.

Bluebeam Revu 21.6 adds a new Integrations Directory, Revu support for ARM processor-based computers ,and Markups on Capture.

The mention of Mac computers should not be mistaken for native macOS support for Revu. The support of Revu on Mac is via Parallels software, a Windows hypervisor application for running Windows OS on Apple Mac computers.

Also new in version 21.6 is the ability to draw directly on field photos via the new Markups on Capture functionality. There are also Tool Chest upgrades with multi-step drag-and-drop and customizable punch keys for faster workflows.

“These updates reflect our commitment to solving real-world challenges faced by AEC professionals,” said Jason Bonifay, CTO at Bluebeam.
