AutoCAD is a computer-aided design software used for 2D drawing and 3D modeling. It is currently developed and marketed by Autodesk. The name AutoCAD arises as a creation of the company Autodesk, where Auto refers to the company and CAD to Computer Assisted Design, having its first appearance in 1982.1 AutoCAD is a software recognized internationally for its extensive editing capabilities, which make it possible to digitally draw building plans or recreate 3D images; It is one of the most widely used programs by architects, engineers, industrial designers, and others.

In addition to accessing commands from command prompt and menu interfaces, AutoCAD provides application programming interfaces (APIs) that can be used to determine drawings and databases.

The programming interfaces that AutoCAD supports are ActiveX Automation, VBA (Visual Basic® for Applications), AutoLISP, Visual LISP, ObjectARX, and .NET. The type of interface used will depend on the needs of the application and the programming experience of each user.

In 1997 Autodesk released AutoCAD LT, a cheaper and less versatile version.

Today, AutoCAD fulfills many functions in conjunction with other add-ons called extensions, which allow a broader experience for users.
