Description

Altium Develop is a collaborative innovation environment that connects design, engineering, and manufacturing stakeholders in one place. Instead of teams working in isolation, it provides a shared space where feedback, design changes, and requirements are tracked as they happen. Built on the Altium 365 ecosystem, it bridges disciplines such as electrical, mechanical, software, and sourcing to reduce miscommunication and delays. By giving suppliers and production engineers an early voice in the process, it minimizes rework and accelerates product delivery. The result is a faster, more transparent path from concept to production, with alignment across every stage of development.

Description

Autodesk AutoCAD is a complete computer-aided design and drafting solution that transforms the way professionals conceptualize, document, and deliver projects. Built for precision and creativity, AutoCAD supports 2D drafting and 3D modeling with intelligent tools for solids, surfaces, and meshes. The AutoCAD 2026 release integrates Autodesk AI, automating repetitive tasks like object placement, markup interpretation, and drawing comparisons to save hours of manual effort. Users can collaborate seamlessly using Autodesk Docs, ensuring consistent document management and version control across teams. With built-in AutoLISP, APIs, and the Autodesk App Store, the software is endlessly customizable for specialized workflows. Its seven industry-specific toolsets—including Architecture, MEP, and Plant 3D—optimize productivity and deliver specialized functionality for each discipline. AutoCAD’s cloud connectivity enables real-time co-authoring and access from any device. Whether for buildings, infrastructure, or products, AutoCAD remains the most trusted platform for professional design innovation.
