The 2026 portfolio adds MCP connectivity, AI Visualizer updates, MEP Designer expansion and a new Archicad Max subscription.
Graphisoft introduced its 2026 product portfolio, led by Archicad and new artificial intelligence capabilities for architecture, engineering and construction teams. The portfolio is based on Graphisoft’s Design Intelligence Strategy and includes updates to its core products, planned Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectivity and an update to AI Assistant.
The portfolio is organized around Graphisoft’s focus on intuitive design workflows. It is intended to support architects, engineers, developers and other project stakeholders from early feasibility through design, coordination and delivery.

The latest version of Archicad includes updates to usability, documentation, project data, visualization and collaboration. Features include Dark Mode for Windows, improved visibility for multistory walls, additional documentation controls, updated Project Info management, customizable Navigator organization and expanded drawing label options.
What’s new in MEP Designer and DDScad
Graphisoft has updated MEP Designer and DDScad with improvements to BIM querying, visualization, workflow support and AI integration. MEP Designer is also being introduced in more than 40 additional markets to support MEP design workflows for more users.
Upcoming Nemetschek Creator and AI updates
The portfolio includes planned MCP support and additional visualization capabilities for AI-enabled workflows. During October, Archicad users will receive access to additional ecosystem offerings, including early-access opportunities for Nemetschek Creator and the Open Collaboration Platform and real-time visualization through Maxon Redshift.
Nemetschek Creator is a cloud-native platform for early-stage design, sustainability and feasibility analysis and AI-assisted assessment. It connects with Archicad to carry design intent from concept development into BIM and provides a shared workspace for architects, developers, investors, urban planners, municipalities and other project stakeholders.
