SOLIDWORKS is built by engineers and designers for engineers and designers. Decades of user-driven enhancements and a relentless R&D focus on user experience has made SOLIDWORKS Design not just the industry-standard in product development, but both fun and easy to use. Simply put, SOLIDWORKS Design is the trusted choice for professionals who need to take their ideas from design to manufacturing in one seamless solution. Hear from users and learn how a customer-driven R&D approach turns your feedback into five enhancement releases every year.
“One of the things that distinguishes SOLIDWORKS is they hear their users, they know what designers want, and they make the effort to actually make those changes happen.”
SOLIDWORKS AI is designed to accelerate the design process, helping design teams make well-informed choices and tackling those tedious tasks that can bog them down. By weaving AI tools into your existing setup, you can iterate on multiple design concepts in the time it typically takes to nail down just one. These AI tools bring value in three key areas: they speed up your design work while boosting quality, cut down on repetitive tasks so you can focus on solving the complex challenges, and capture your team’s know-how to maintain consistency across all projects.
We’re excited about these new SOLIDWORKS AI CAD tools and the value they can deliver today—with even more functionality on the way. You can start exploring select AI features now, including the tools highlighted below, all included with your license. As these capabilities continue to evolve, we’re taking a thoughtful approach to rollout so that SOLIDWORKS users can test the latest SOLIDWORKS AI features as soon as possible. Because these features are currently in beta, functionality may evolve as enhancements are made to reliability, speed, and ease of use. For SOLIDWORKS users, it's advisable to test them in low-risk, non-production workflows before rolling them out in live project environments, production datasets, or business-critical deliverables. Core SOLIDWORKS AI capabilities include Auto-Fastener Recognition to manage hardware, Command Predictor to anticipate your next modeling steps, Generative Drawings for structured views, an AI-Powered Assembly Structure Generator, and What’s Wrong Analysis for AI-guided root-cause error resolution. You also gain access to SOLIDWORKS AI Virtual Companions, which act as experts at your side. AURA is available today with Cloud Services to connect the engineering context with platform knowledge. Our future vision includes LEO to expand mechanical design intelligence.
We build SOLIDWORKS AI on a foundation of strict data security. Your intellectual property remains fully protected through secure cloud infrastructure, tenant-bound environments, transparent governance controls and a strict policy of no training on proprietary customer data. It's an enterprise-grade AI CAD solution built for engineers, with direct access included with your SOLIDWORKS license.
