AutoCAD

One of the world's leading CAD software applications. With Autodesk AutoCAD software, design every detail, share precise drawings, and connect across desktop, cloud, and mobile devices with the reliability of TrustedDWG technology. Work faster from anywhere with industry-specific toolsets and AutoCAD web and mobile apps. 

What is AutoCAD?

AutoCAD® is computer-aided design (CAD) software that architects, engineers and construction professionals rely on to create precise 2D and 3D drawings.

  • Draft and edit 2D geometry and 3D models with solids, surfaces and mesh objects
  • Annotate drawings with text, dimensions, leaders and tables
  • Customize with add-on apps and APIs

Work across the connected platform with desktop, cloud, and mobile solutions, all with the reliability of TrustedDWG™ technology: the original and most accurate way to store and exchange design data. AutoCAD software – engineered for the future.

Work faster with industry-specific toolsets

AutoCAD® now includes industry-specific features and libraries for architecture, mechanical design, electrical design and more in industry toolsets (previously separate AutoCAD products).

When you subscribe to AutoCAD including specialized toolsets, you gain access to seamless workflows, and new automations that help you achieve ultimate productivity in 2D and 3D design, by allowing you to work faster anytime, anywhere, with the included AutoCAD web and mobile apps.

Design more-quickly with industry-specific capabilities that let you:

  • Access features and libraries while working in a familiar AutoCAD interface.
  • Automate floor plans, sections and elevations.
  • Easily create details and views from 3D models, and quickly generate schedules, lists, and tables.
  • Create rules-driven workflows.

You can complete design tasks in a fraction of the time. Automate common actions such as inserting doors, generating bills of materials and creating PLC I/O drawings. Access over 750,000 intelligent objects and parts with industry libraries.

Architecture toolset
Speed up architectural drawing and documentation with over 8,000 intelligent architectural objects. Automate floorplans, sections, elevations, and more.

Electrical toolset
Boost productivity while designing and documenting electrical controls systems with over 65,000 intelligent electrical symbols. Design panel layouts and schematic diagrams.

Mechanical toolset
Accelerate product design with mechanical design features and over 700,000 intelligent manufacturing parts and symbols. Automate tasks, such as generating machine Components and creating bills of materials.

Plant 3D toolset
Produce P&IDs efficiently and integrate them into 3D plant design models using specialized plant design and engineering features. Quickly create plant layouts, schematic diagrams, and more.

MEP toolset
Efficiently draft, design, and document building systems with over 10,500 intelligent mechanical, electrical, and plumbing objects.
Easily design ductwork, electrical conduit, and circuiting for building systems.

Map 3D toolset
Improve planning and design by incorporating GIS and CAD data. Manage spatial data with standard data schema, automated business workflows, and report templates.

Raster design toolset
Convert raster images into DWG™ objects with raster-to-vector tools. Easily edit and clean up raster images while transforming them into vector drawings within a familiar AutoCAD environment.
