The best AI for CAD students is one that teaches you the click
Cadet is an AI screen tutor built specifically for university CAD and engineering coursework. You share the app you're stuck in, say what's wrong, and Cadet points at the next step on your own model. Unlike general screen helpers, it also reads your assignment brief, plans the work to your deadline and checks every requirement before you submit — and it never does the work for you.
Built for students with a brief and a deadline — not for general office work.
Why students choose Cadet
It shows the exact next click
Cadet points at the button or menu on your own screen and explains why — not a generic tutorial for a different model.
It reads your brief
Drop in the assignment PDF and Cadet pulls out every requirement and the deadline, then plans the work across the days you have.
It checks your work before you submit
Before the hand-in, Cadet checks what's on screen against each requirement in the brief, so nothing gets missed.
It never does the work for you
Cadet shows the step; you make the click. The model is yours and you can explain it — which is why departments can recommend it.

Rhino, SOLIDWORKS, Fusion 360, Revit, MATLAB, Ansys, AutoCAD and more — the software in university catalogues.
Priced for students

Questions students ask
What is the best AI for CAD students?
For students, the best CAD AI is one that helps you learn and finish your own work. Cadet is built for exactly that: it watches your CAD window, shows the next click, reads your brief and checks every requirement — and it never makes the model for you.
Does Cadet work with SOLIDWORKS, Rhino, Fusion 360 and Revit?
Yes — and 48 other apps from university software catalogues, including MATLAB, Ansys and AutoCAD.
Is using an AI for CAD coursework allowed?
Cadet is designed to be: it explains and points, and you do every step yourself. Always follow your module's rules on AI use.
How much does Cadet cost?
Free with an account (5 sessions a week). Paid plans are £2.99 for 24 hours, £7.99 a month or £24.99 a semester.
Cadet never does the work for you.
It shows the step; you make the click. That's why departments can recommend it.
