BranchCAD

Browser-based 2D CAD with branching and live collaboration

BranchCAD is a free, browser-based 2D CAD tool for engineers, architects, drafters and designers. Draft precise 2D drawings right in your browser with snapping and layers, import DWG and DXF files, and export to DXF, PDF or SVG. Its standout feature is Git-style version control for drawings: branch a design, try changes safely, merge them back and restore any earlier version. Teams can work on the same canvas in real time with live cursors, comments and full change history. No install needed.

Hi Fazier! I'm Hamish, the solo developer behind BranchCAD. I built it because drawings still get passed around as email attachments named final_v3_REALLY_final.dwg. Developers solved this years ago with Git, so BranchCAD brings branching, merging and version history to 2D CAD, right in the browser, with real-time collaboration on top. It's free to start. I'd love your feedback, especially on what would make you switch from your current CAD tool.
