What is Aircad?
Aircad is a browser-based tool for 2D drafting and 3D solid modeling. It runs directly in a web browser without downloads. The workspace includes standard drafting commands, NURBS modeling tools, and a command line interface for precise input. Users can open existing DWG files while preserving layouts, blocks, and dimensions. Built-in libraries cover doors, windows, furniture, and plumbing in imperial and metric units.
The platform supports real-time multiplayer editing through shareable links. Multiple users work on the same file simultaneously, with visible cursors and pinned comments attached to drawing elements. Every modification is tracked in an unlimited version history, allowing teams to compare changes, fork revisions, or restore earlier states. An activity feed records edits.
An optional AI agent operates within the command line or a dedicated panel. Users ask questions about designs, request code compliance checks, or describe edits in plain language. The agent proposes changes as editable drafts that require manual approval. It supports integration with several external language models and handles drafting, modeling, and rendering tasks.
