Autodesk unveiled Forma Building Design at Autodesk University, targeting detailed BIM workflows with LOD 200/300 capabilities and AI automation. The new solution integrates facade checks, interior layout exploration, and performance optimization using carbon and daylight metrics. Autodesk also rebranded its early-stage planning tool as Forma Site Design and announced Revit as the first Forma Connected Client, linking desktop BIM to Forma's cloud environment. This integration enables Revit users to access Forma's environmental analyses and shared data without file transfers. Additionally, Autodesk is introducing the AI-powered Autodesk Assistant across Revit, AutoCAD, and Civil 3D to automate tasks and provide real-time insights. The company revealed plans for neural CAD, a generative AI model set to automate 80-90% of CAD geometry creation, enhancing both Forma and Fusion product design software.
