About GET files

The .GET file extension is primarily used as an Allplan Layout Element file in Allplan, a Building Information Modeling (BIM) platform developed by Nemetschek. These files store architectural drawing layouts, structural blocks, and specific design elements used in complex construction planning. Alternatively, some .GET files function as 3D printer files for specialized slicing software and hardware. The .GET format is highly proprietary and closed. It cannot be opened by standard image viewers, web browsers, or competing CAD software like AutoCAD without specialized import tools. Sharing a raw .GET file with a client or contractor usually fails because they lack an active, expensive Allplan subscription to view it. Users typically need to convert .GET files to universal CAD formats like DWG or DXF for cross-platform editing, or to PDF for simple document review and printing. For 3D printer files, converting to STL or OBJ is usually the goal. However, converting proprietary layout structures often results in lost BIM metadata, broken layer hierarchies, or missing embedded textures. Because this file format is difficult to open or convert, standard online converters often fail to process it. Usually, only the original software can properly read or export the raw data. However, you can use convert.guru. Just drag and drop your file to identify the format, view it, and convert it when possible. Our analysis tools inspect the file and show internal content, detecting embedded standard formats to help you access your data.

Convert.Guru analyzes your GET file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted GED, BMC, ALM, STS and POST files.

The GET Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our GET converter.
