Open a drawing in your browser — no AutoCAD, no install, no account. DXF renders instantly, and your file never leaves your machine because there is no upload.
Parses in a Web Worker on your device. Works on desktop, tablet & phone.
Launch app.caddillo.com in any modern browser — Chrome, Safari, Edge or Firefox — on desktop, tablet or phone. Nothing to install, no account to create.
Drag a .dxf onto the canvas (or use the file picker). It renders instantly — pan, zoom, fit-to-extents, toggle layers, and read live cursor coordinates. Have a .dwg? Convert it to DXF first, then drop the DXF in.
Inspect layers and dimensions, add markup with real draw tools, then export a clean DXF — or open the full editor and change the drawing.
The viewer parses and renders your drawing in your browser, in a Web Worker. There is no upload endpoint — the file is read on your own device and stays there. Cloud CAD viewers send your drawing to a server to render it; CADdillo doesn't.
A real CAD entity set, not a thumbnail — built on three.js with a per-layer buffer pipeline tuned for drawings with over 100,000 entities.
Honest limits: text renders as a readable sans-serif label (not a typographic match), HATCH is outline-only, and lineweights/dash patterns draw as thin solid lines. Colors and layers are honored.
Yes. The CADdillo viewer runs in your browser with no AutoCAD, no install and no account. DXF files render instantly. DWG files need one conversion step to DXF first — use the free DWG to DXF converter, then drop the DXF into the viewer.
No. The viewer parses and renders your DXF entirely in your browser, in a Web Worker — there is no upload endpoint, so the file never leaves your machine. Confidential vendor drawings and NDA plans stay on your own device, unlike cloud viewers that render server-side.
Lines, polylines (with bulge arcs), circles, arcs, ellipses, splines, text and MTEXT, nested block INSERTs resolved recursively, SOLID/3DFACE outlines, DIMENSION geometry and HATCH boundaries — with per-layer visibility and ACI colors. Text is drawn as a readable label rather than a typographic match, and lineweights/dash patterns render as thin solid lines.
Convert the DWG to DXF first with the free converter, then open the DXF in the viewer. Native in-browser DWG reading is on the roadmap; for now the one-step DXF conversion keeps the whole flow free and fast.
Yes. The viewer works in mobile Safari and Chrome with one-finger pan and two-finger pinch-zoom. Same privacy on phone and tablet as on desktop — the file is parsed on your device.
The viewer and all 217 professional blocks are free forever. Pro ($20/mo) adds unlimited saved drawings, DWG import/export and monthly AI credits — versus about $60/mo for AutoCAD LT.
