Verdict
If you live in Studio Sessions, tool chests, and advanced PDF editing, Revu Core or Complete is worth its price — pay it. If you use Revu to open drawings, mark up, measure, and count, you are paying US$780–$1,320 over three years per seat for a fraction of the product; ContractorCounter covers that workflow in the browser for US$14/month (US$420 over the same three years) or a US$249 one-time one-time license.
01
The 2026 price list, plainly
Published list pricing, per user per year, billed annually: **Basics US$260** (markup and measurement essentials), **Core US$330** (adds Studio collaboration), **Complete US$440** (full toolset incl. advanced editing and Quantity Link), **Max US$590** (adds enterprise administration). No free tier; the trial is time-limited. Regional pricing varies — check Bluebeam's pricing page for your market before deciding on price alone.
02
Perpetual licences are gone — the Revu 20 wrinkle
Revu 20 perpetual licences stopped being supported on July 31, 2026, and lose Studio and API access on December 31, 2026 — so "keep the old version" is a bridge, not a plan. The details and dates are in what Revu 20 end of support actually means, and the migration checklist covers the move itself.
03
The three-year math for a small team
Three seats on Core for three years is US$2,970 on list pricing; on Complete, US$3,960. The same three seats here run US$1,260 over three years (US$14/month each) — or US$747 once, ever, on three US$249 one-time lifetime licenses. That gap is the honest reason subbies shop for a Bluebeam alternative: not because Revu is bad software, but because most small teams use a tenth of it.
04
What you give up at the lower price — said honestly
No enterprise tool chests, no joining someone else's Studio Session, no advanced PDF editing. What you keep: markup, calibrated measurement, counts, shared browser workspaces with live cursors, and a live Bill of Quantities that Revu never had — the takeoff flows into a priced quote instead of stopping at a markup summary.

Common questions
Questions about Bluebeam Revu price
How much does Bluebeam Revu cost per year?
On 2026 published list pricing: Basics US$260, Core US$330, Complete US$440, and Max US$590 per user per year, billed annually. Volume and regional pricing differ; the figures above were read from Bluebeam's own pricing page on the review date shown on this page.
Is there a free version of Bluebeam?
No — Revu has no free tier, only a time-limited trial. If free-to-start matters, the practical route is a [free Bluebeam alternative](/free-bluebeam-alternative) trial: full markup, measurement, and counts in the browser before the first charge.
Can I still buy a perpetual Bluebeam licence?
Not for current versions — Revu moved to subscription with Revu 21. Existing Revu 20 perpetual licences keep running but are unsupported since July 31, 2026 and lose Studio/API access at the end of 2026. The one-time-purchase niche Revu vacated is why our US$249 lifetime license exists.
