Twinmotion Overview

The twinmotion MCP server connects MCP clients to Twinmotion through an APS-based rendering pipeline. It imports Revit models, changes weather and time-of-day settings, renders still images up to 8K, exports walkthrough videos, and lists scenes or animations. Use it when an agent needs to automate architectural visualization tasks through a remote MCP endpoint. Authentication uses an API key header or APS OAuth2-backed service access.

Primary Use Cases for Twinmotion:
  • Import Revit models into Twinmotion
  • Set weather and time-of-day conditions
  • Render architectural still images
  • Export walkthrough videos
