Enhance is the ClashWise tool that renames your Navisworks clash results with descriptive, AI-generated titles. This article covers what you need before your first run and takes you around the Enhance window.
Before you begin
Make sure you have:
- A signed-in ClashWise account. Click Login on the ClashWiseAI ribbon tab if you are not signed in. Accounts are created on the web at https://clashwise.ai — the plugin has no sign-up form.
- A Starter subscription or higher. Enhance requires the Starter plan; every Clash Management plan (Pro, Business, or a trial) includes it.
- A saved Navisworks file. If your file has never been saved, Enhance will ask you to save it first.
- At least one clash test with results. Run your tests in Navisworks Clash Detective first — ClashWise names clashes; it does not detect them.
- Complete Property Mapping. Every model in your document needs its six property fields mapped (name, ID, category, layer/level, type, discipline). Mapping usually auto-detects; see the Property Mapping section for details.
- A local AI model. Naming runs on an AI model downloaded to your own computer. The first time you use Enhance, ClashWise walks you through downloading one (see below).
Opening Enhance
- In Navisworks, open the ClashWiseAI ribbon tab.
- In the Clashes panel, click Enhance (or press Alt+3).
If you installed the Starter edition of the plugin, the Clashes panel shows only Enhance and Local AI — that is expected.
First run: downloading a local AI model
If no AI model is downloaded yet, a message titled "Local AI setup required" appears and the AI Models window opens so you can download one. Download the model marked Recommended (about 1 GB) — or any other model — then click Use to make it active and close the window. Enhance then opens normally. See the Local AI Models article for the full model catalog.
The Enhance window
The window (titled ClashWiseAI) has three tabs:
- Clash Tests — pick which clash tests to process.
- Settings — choose the naming standard, language, output target, and scope. See the Naming Standards and Settings article.
- Property Mapping Configuration — review or fix the property mappings for each model. See the Property Mapping section.
The footer shows the plugin version and the Cancel and Start buttons. Start stays disabled until you have selected at least one clash test and every model's property mapping is complete. Trial accounts also see a monthly clash allowance counter here.
The Clash Tests tab
- The grid lists every clash test in your document with columns Clash Test, Type of Test, Total Issues, and Information.
- The Information column tells you about grouping: No groups, Contains 1 group, Contains {N} groups — or Not yet performed for a test that has never been run (run it in Clash Detective first).
- Tick the checkbox on each test you want to process. You can select as many tests as you like.
- Use the Search clash tests box to filter the list by test name, type, or information. You can also right-click the grid and choose Show search panel for column-by-column filtering.
An amber notice above the grid reminds you to review the Property Mapping Configuration tab so that Name, ID, Category, Layer/Level, and Type are correctly assigned — accurate mappings are what make titles accurate.
What happens next
- Select your clash tests.
- Go to the Settings tab and choose your naming standard and options (see the Naming Standards and Settings article).
- Click Start and watch the progress (see the Running and Reviewing article).
Tips
- For your first run, pick one small clash test, review the results in Clash Detective, adjust settings if needed, and then process the larger tests.
- Group your clashes first (with Group Clashes in the same ribbon panel) if you want group-level names — Enhance can rename groups as well as individual clashes.
