Get started with Cloud CAD
Updated November 12, 2026
Cloud CAD by MyCloudSuites is free 2D drafting for plans and details, with an assistant that drafts what you describe. It’s in beta: it works, and we update it often while we finish it. If something isn’t right, tell us what you find.
Open Cloud CAD
- In your browser: go to mycloudsuites.com/apps/cad and sign in with your free account.
- On your computer: get the desktop app from Cloud CAD on the Download page. It runs on macOS 13 or later and on Windows 10 and 11, and it updates itself when there’s a new version.
Start or open a drawing
- Choose File › New drawing to start with a blank one.
- Choose File › Open… for a .dwg, .dxf or .ccad file, or drop one onto the window. A DXF’s layouts open as sheets.
.ccad is Cloud CAD’s own file. A .dwg file goes to our server to be converted, so opening one needs the internet. DXF and .ccad files open on your computer, offline too.
Draw
- Pick a tool on the left, or type its shortcut, such as L for a line, REC for a rectangle, O for offset or TR for trim.
- Snap to ends and middles, and type the length you want.
- Undo and redo work for every change.
Put things on layers, each with its own color, line weight and lock, and make blocks for the doors, windows and fixtures you place again and again.
Next
- Draft with the AI: ask for a room, a window or a garage.
- Save, export and save to MyCloudSuites.
- What works offline.
