A Cadabra alternative for students in the UK

Cadabra's student plan isn't sold in the UK, EU or Switzerland, and it edits your SOLIDWORKS model for you. Cadet is available to UK students today and works the other way round: it shows each step in your own model and you make the click — so the work is yours, and it also checks your model against your brief.

Why students choose Cadet

  • Available to UK students

    Sign up with Google or email and start today.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Nothing to install

    It runs in Chrome or Edge on any laptop — including locked-down university PCs — and there's a desktop app for Windows and Mac.
