About
Autodesk, Inc. is a San Francisco, California-based design, engineering, and construction software company — publicly traded on the NASDAQ (NASDAQ: ADSK) as an S&P 500 Information Technology component — developing cloud-based and desktop software for architects, engineers, construction professionals, product designers, media and entertainment creators through industry-specific platforms including AutoCAD (2D/3D computer-aided design), Revit (building information modeling for architects and structural engineers), Civil 3D (infrastructure design for civil engineers), Inventor (3D mechanical CAD for product design), Maya/3ds Max (3D animation and visual effects), and Fusion 360 (cloud-based product design and manufacturing) through approximately 14,000 employees. In fiscal year 2025 (ending January 2025), Autodesk reported revenues of $6.1 billion (+12% year-over-year) with subscription model revenue representing 98%+ of total revenue — completing the company's decade-long transition from perpetual software license sales to annual and multi-year subscription contracts that generate predictable recurring revenue and higher lifetime customer value than one-time license purchases. CEO Andrew Anagnost leads Autodesk's strategy of expanding from design software into a construction platform: Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC — combining BIM 360, BuildingConnected, PlanGrid, and Assemble Systems into a unified construction project management and collaboration platform) targets the $10+ trillion global construction industry's digital transformation — connecting architects, engineers, contractors, and owners on a single platform from design (Revit/AutoCAD) through construction (ACC document management, RFI workflow, safety management) to facility management (Autodesk Tandem digital twin). Autodesk AI (AI-assisted design generation, Intelligent Model Healing, AutoCAD AI Drafting) integrates generative AI into the design workflow to automate repetitive drafting tasks and provide design optimization suggestions within existing AutoCAD and Revit workflows.
