# Overview

> Learn what the Kinship add-in does, why it’s needed for working with Revit, and how it connects your models to Kinship’s tools for content management, tracking, and analytics.

The Kinship add-in brings your team’s library and tools directly into Revit. It lets users search and load content without leaving the model, while also enabling features like project and content tracking, analytics, and quality checks. By running inside Revit, the add-in helps teams work faster and more consistently—connecting day-to-day modeling with the content standards and insights you manage on the website.

### What you need the add-in for

* **Searching for and loading content** from your team’s library or collections into Revit
* **Uploading content**—whether adding to the library, collections, or as part of model tracking
* **Tracking content usage and activity** within Revit models, including where content came from and how it’s being used
* **Running model health checks** and surfacing issues like warnings, corrupt families, or sync delays
* **Making content changes**—editing families in Revit and re-uploading updated versions
* **Enabling project-level analytics** that tie together model health, content use, and team activity

***

### What you don’t need the add-in for

* **Browsing, organizing, or managing existing content** in the library, collections, or model content pages
* **Renaming, moving, or copying content** between collections and the library
* **Reviewing analytics and reports** on content usage, model performance, or team activity
* **Adding content from a tracked model to the library or a collection**—this can be done directly on the website
* **Managing team settings, permissions, or library structure**—all handled on the website
