The Forma Industry Cloud is Autodesk’s AI-native, end-to-end platform designed to connect fragmented AECO workflows in a single, predictive risk-focused ecosystem. This helps support more informed decision-making across planning, design, construction and operations.
The Forma Industry Cloud brings together Autodesk’s design and construction solutions into one connected platform. It includes:
Forma Site Design, a cloud-based design tool that supports early stage planning and analysis.
Autodesk Construction Cloud tools like Docs, Build, and other construction modules.
Desktop & Cloud capabilities, such as AutoCAD, Revit, and Civil 3D, which will gain new Forma Connected Clients capabilities.
Autodesk Docs, which will serve as the common data environment (CDE) for Forma.
Together, these products unify planning, design, construction, and operations workflows under the Forma brand—while keeping the functionality and access you already rely on.
