Read, write and save to .DWG

Save money with our flexible licensing
BricsCAD offers flexible CAD licensing: choose perpetual, subscription, network, or standalone options. A BricsCAD perpetual license costs about half of a yearly AutoCAD® subscription, delivering significant savings while meeting your needs.
Experience enhanced performance
2.7x faster opening 500+ DWG files and 2.8x faster running advanced LISP routines. BricsCAD uses multi-core CPUs to accelerate drawing loads, enhancing detail view creation and rendering for optimal performance on modern hardware.
Start Quickly and Be Productive
BricsCAD's familiar environment is fully compatible with AutoCAD® 2022 commands, scripts, macros, and menus. Your existing setups run seamlessly—no need to change printers, templates, blocks, or sheet sets; just bring them into BricsCAD.
AI-Powered Tools for Smarter Work
BricsCAD® is not just an AutoCAD® alternative; it’s evolving CAD software using artificial intelligence and machine learning to enhance workflows. Enjoy advanced features and continuous updates to keep your tools cutting-edge for all projects.
Point-and-go configuration
In BricsCAD, all standard configurations and custom apps function seamlessly (e.g., CTB/STB files, layer states, templates). Simply point BricsCAD to their server location or copy them to the appropriate folder on your local machine.
Pricing & licensing
Altogether better value and cost savings
Enjoy tailored plans to fit your needs and rely on expert assistance to ensure smooth, efficient design processes.
Licensing the way it should be
Choose to subscribe and rent BricsCAD as a flexible operational expense. Or opt for a one-time perpetual license with Maintenance for lifetime ownership and low-cost upkeep.
No named users
Unlike other CAD solutions, licenses are linked to the company, not the individual - bringing unmatched flexibility and efficiency to your design projects.
Multi-user network
Utilize resources efficiently with a multi-user network license, allowing licenses to float across a network providing seamless access for your entire team.
THE LICENSING ADVANTAGE
Own your license. Own your savings.
Why rent your software? A BricsCAD Pro perpetual license is a one-time purchase. Compare that to the mandatory annual subscription for AutoCAD®.
