2024 was another eventful year for Yulio VR and as we approach the end of December, we always like to take some time to reflect on the year and remember our highlights and the lessons we learned, and think about how VR in Architecture is rapidly evolving.
This year was full of exciting events that we were able to attend and connect with people to show them the power of Yulio. We always love industry events as a chance to showcase our latest features and also see the future of the industry we are so proud to be a part of.
We also got to bring some exciting new features to Yulio users this year. We are always working to make Yulio a more comprehensive presentation tool for architects, designer,s and sellers and it’s great to see our users respond to these feature drops.
And finally, this year we put together some great content for our library. New videos, whitepapers and knowledge base articles were created to continue to provide inspiration and guidance for both new and continuing users.
Join us as we go over the highlights of 2024 for Yulio and do a little reminiscing before we ring in the new year.

Features to Empower Our Users
In 2024 we continued to roll out new features for Yulio VR to ensure our users have access to a VR presentation tool that meets their needs and allows them to present their VR projects in the best light.
This year we introduced features such as:
- AR Hotspots for CET Designer and SketchUp – AR hotspots are now seamlessly integrated with CET Designer and Sketchup. Creating Augmented Reality elements couldn’t get any simpler. Tag your objects and render with Yulio Jump – it’s that easy. Let your clients see your products right within your space save time and save costs on mockups. AR helps you create immersive presentations in a headset, or with your tablet or phone on the go. This is just a reminder that they are available in Revit too!
- Improved Hotspot Customization – customize the look of your hotspots now in Yulio for easy color coordination and improved navigation for your clients
- Yulio Project Traffic Report - Yulio’s Project Traffic Report tool allows you to view a report of viewer traffic across all VR projects in your account. With the Project Traffic Report, you can see data including when, where, and how your projects are being viewed to help you have a better understanding of how your clients are engaging with your projects.
- New Training Webinars – This year we’ve continued to provide our regular training webinars as a way to bring people into the Yulio Ecosystem and get up and running with the tools. We have added some new webinars over the year to address more topics that our users have wanted to see. Make sure to add our upcoming webinars to your calendar in 2025
