CAD and 3D
CAD and 3D modelling, in the same app as your designs
Designz CAD draws precise 2D plans with snapping, dimensions and layers, and exports DXF or SVG. Designz 3D builds models from shapes you combine and cut, adds materials and light, and exports STL, OBJ or glTF for 3D printing or other software.
Designz is in private beta. Testers get every editor free while the beta runs. Join the beta to get an invite.

What you can do
- Draw lines, arcs and shapes that snap to each other and to a grid.
- Add dimensions so a plan can be built or cut.
- Organise drawings on layers.
- Export DXF for laser cutters and CAD software, or SVG for vinyl cutters and the web.
- Build 3D models from boxes, cylinders and other shapes, then combine or cut them.
- Export STL for 3D printers, or OBJ and glTF for other 3D apps.
Where it fits
Designz CAD and 3D is for plans, parts and models that people make at school, at home and in small workshops. Engineers designing complex assemblies will still want dedicated engineering software. What Designz adds is having CAD and 3D next to the posters, slides and documents that go with a project.
Questions
Can I make files for a 3D printer?
Yes. Export your model as STL, which almost every 3D printer slicer opens.
Can I use it for laser cutting?
Yes. Export your 2D drawing as DXF or SVG.
