Flow for Autodesk Inventor
Edit properties. Inspect models. Automate work.
All in one panel.
Compatible with Inventor 2025, 2026, and 2027
Core functionality — free for everyone
Flow replaces property dialogs, manual inspection, and repetitive data entry with a single dockable panel and live model feedback. All core features are free — no subscription required.
Property Edit Panel
A configurable, always-visible panel docked inside Inventor. Show only the properties your team uses, in the order you choose. Edit the active document or click any assembly component to edit in place. Dropdowns with approved values. Colour-coded accents confirm document type. No more opening iProperties dialogs.
Hover Inspection
Move your cursor over any component and instantly see part number, description, quantity, even a thumbnail — without a single click. All instances highlight across the assembly. Find the right component in seconds, not minutes.
Thickness Analysis
Point at any surface and see wall thickness at that exact spot, updated live as you move. Instant quality verification for sheet metal, thin-walled plastics, and castings. Catch design issues before they reach production.
Full Configuration
Define properties, groups, categories, lists, and appearance for every document type. Set per-document layouts. Enforce approved values with List Only mode. Link lists so one choice drives the next. One configuration file — your whole team stays consistent.
Team-Ready Architecture
Place a single config folder on your network share or in Vault. Every Flow installation points to it. Update the config once — all users get the change on next restart. Zero per-machine setup. One source of truth.
Offline. Independent. Yours.
Flow works entirely on your machine and your network. No cloud dependency. No internet required for daily use. No data leaves your environment. Licence verification is local. Your IP stays where it belongs.
Freeware. No subscription. No cloud dependency.
Flow is free for Inventor 2025, 2026, and 2027. Donations welcome — they unlock dark mode and the iLogic Rules module.

Engineers spend hours in property dialogs every week. Flow replaces that cycle with a single dockable panel.
