Browser CAD for 2D drafting and 3D solid modeling

Visit aircad.com (opens in a new tab)

Aircad is a CAD app that runs in the browser: 2D drafting with AutoCAD-style commands, NURBS solid modeling (booleans, fillets, lofts, sweeps, push/pull), dimensions, GD&T and layouts. The C++ engine runs locally in WebAssembly. It opens and saves DWG and DXF, imports Rhino, STEP and glTF, and exports PDF, STL and OBJ. Live collaboration, version history and an optional AI agent are built in. Free for 3 files; Pro is $29/month, $19 for early sign-ups. Parametric objects are still on the roadmap.

    Most browser CAD tools are either toys or push the heavy geometry to a server. Aircad runs its engine in the browser and round-trips DWG, so a drafting office could try it on a real project without leaving AutoCAD behind. HN raised the fair worry of betting a business on a small new company, and the answer is that everything exports to standard formats. The Show HN reached 90 points.
