    "body": "<p><strong>BUDAPEST,&nbsp;January 6, 2026&mdash;Graphisoft,\u202fthe leading Building Information Modeling (BIM) software solution developer for architecture and multidisciplinary design, today announced the conditions of its Phase 3 conversion terms starting April 1, 2026.</strong></p><p>As announced in&nbsp;<a href=\"https://graphisoft.prezly.com/graphisoft-announces-shift-to-future-proof-subscription-model\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">April 2024</a>, further detailed in&nbsp;<a href=\"https://graphisoft.prezly.com/graphisoft-announces-next-phase-of-its-shift-to-future-proof-subscription-model\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">September 2024</a>, and again in&nbsp;<a href=\"https://graphisoft.prezly.com/graphisoft-issues-key-update-on-transition-to-future-proof-subscription-model\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">November 2025</a>, existing customers holding Archicad perpetual license(s) with active SSA/FWD maintenance contracts can convert their licenses to Archicad subscriptions under preferential terms.</p><p>The third phase of Graphisoft&rsquo;s multi-year&nbsp;<strong>SSA-to-Subscription</strong>&nbsp;<strong>Conversion Program</strong>&nbsp;will start on April 1, 2026, and will run for a full 12-month cycle till March 31, 2027. The main change to the current Phase 2 conditions is that during Phase 3, customers&#039; SSA/FWD contracts will lapse at the end of their next term, independent of their decision about converting their licenses to subscriptions; thus, converting them to a subscription will be the only way to keep their licenses current with future Archicad updates.
