OVERVIEW : AutoCAD
What is Autodesk AutoCAD?
Autodesk AutoCAD equips architects, engineers, and construction professionals with precision tools to:
-
Design and annotate 2D geometry and 3D models with solids, surfaces, and mesh objects
-
Automate drafting tasks to place objects with AI, compare drawings, create schedules, publish layouts, and more
-
Maximize productivity with customized workspaces, AutoLISP, APIs, and apps
What you can do with Autodesk AutoCAD
Coordinate your project and collaborate with consultants on files hosted in Autodesk Docs.
Unlock efficient workflows
AutoCAD enhances your 2D and 3D design experience by giving you the tools to unlock insights and automations with the help of Autodesk AI.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
What is AutoCAD used for?
AutoCAD is computer-aided design (CAD) software that is used for precise 2D and 3D drafting, design, and modeling with solids, surfaces, mesh objects, documentation features, and more. It includes features to automate tasks and increase productivity such as comparing drawings, counting, adding objects, and creating tables. It also comes with seven industry-specific toolsets for electrical design, plant design, architecture layout drawings, mechanical design, 3D mapping, adding scanned images, and converting raster images. AutoCAD enables users to create, edit, and annotate drawings via desktop, web, and mobile devices.
Who uses Autodesk AutoCAD?
Autodesk AutoCAD is used by students, architects, designers, engineers, project managers, real estate developers, and construction professionals to create precise 2D and 3D drawings.
What is the difference between AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT?
AutoCAD LT is powerful 2D CAD software used for precision drafting and documentation. AutoCAD includes all the features of AutoCAD LT, plus additional features to benefit productivity such as 3D modeling and automation of repetitive processes. AutoCAD also lets you customize the user interface with APIs and add-on apps. With AutoCAD, users are able work more efficiently with seven industry-specific toolsets to enhance automation and productivity for tasks in architecture, mechanical design, electrical design, plant design, plumbing, converting raster images, geographic information systems, and 3D mapping.
