CADSynthesis is an independent publication covering the technologies changing how people design, document, simulate and manufacture. Our focus is on the practical intersection of CAD, BIM, engineering software and artificial intelligence.
What we cover
New software features are only the starting point. We examine what announcements mean for actual professional work: model quality, interoperability, automation, documentation, data ownership, deployment risk and the realities of adopting new tools.
- CAD and 3D design: parametric modeling, drafting, geometry kernels, visualization and product development.
- BIM and the built environment: model coordination, construction information, digital workflows and AEC software.
- Engineering and manufacturing: simulation, CAM, ECAD, digital manufacturing and connected engineering systems.
- AI and automation: engineering assistants, agents, generative tools, scripting, data systems and the boundaries of automation.
Our point of view
We believe technical news is most useful when it goes beyond repeating a press release. CADSynthesis aims to distinguish what has been demonstrated from what is promised, identify unresolved technical questions, and explain the likely effect on existing workflows. A product launch does not, by itself, establish that a feature is production-ready.
Editorial direction
CADSynthesis is edited by R. Khouri, a CAD engineer, software developer, Autodesk Authorized Author and technical trainer. His work with AutoCAD began in 1992. That professional background informs our emphasis on implementation details, standards, interoperability and the everyday constraints faced by CAD users and engineering teams.
Coverage may include reporting, technical explainers, critical analysis, research summaries and editorial commentary. Opinions are identified by context and should not be confused with product specifications or independently verified test results.
