AutoCAD AutoCAD
AutoCAD® software delivers the power and flexibility needed to take your documentation and design further.  Explore concepts more intuitively in 3D, speed documentation, and share ideas seamlessly with AutoCAD, one of the world’s leading design applications.
 
Explore
Now containing powerful 3D surface, mesh, and solid modeling tools, AutoCAD provides the utmost flexibility to explore design ideas.  The intuitive tools enable you to digitally sculpt your ideas into almost any shape imaginable.
 
Document
Move from concept to completion more efficiently and faster than ever before, using the timesaving documentation tools in AutoCAD.  Parametric drawing tools, dynamic blocks, sheet sets, and an action recorder enable you to maximize productivity and accuracy when documenting designs.
 
Communicate
And with native DWG™ technology support, you can effectively collaborate across teams, sharing critical design data securely, efficiently, and accurately.  Presentation-ready graphics, rendering tools, and powerful plotting and 3D printing capabilities enable you to communicate your design intent clearly and effectively.
 
Customize
Plus, if you need to customize AutoCAD to meet your unique needs, it’s easier than you may think.  Configure your settings, extend the software, build custom workflows, develop your own application, or simply select an industry-tailored version already available.
