The Forma Industry Cloud is Autodesk’s AI-native, end-to-end platform designed to connect fragmented AECO workflows in a single, predictive risk-focused ecosystem. This helps support more informed decision-making across planning, design, construction and operations.
Forma industry cloud is for organizations across the AECO ecosystem—including architects, engineers, contractors, and owners—who want to design, build, and operate projects using connected data and AI-powered insights. It supports teams throughout the entire project lifecycle, from early planning and design to construction and operations. By connecting people, workflows, and project data in a single cloud platform, Forma helps multidisciplinary teams collaborate more effectively, make better decisions earlier, and deliver more predictable, sustainable project outcomes.
The Forma Industry Cloud brings together Autodesk’s design and construction solutions into one connected platform.
Together, these products unify planning, design, construction, and operations workflows under the Forma cloud—while keeping the functionality and access you already rely on.

Forma Building Design will launch in 2026. In the coming months, we’ll launch a closed beta where you can explore these capabilities firsthand and help shape the future of building design. Access will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis. Register here to join the waitlist.
Your current subscriptions and contracts will remain the same. With Autodesk Forma, you’ll gain access to new cloud connected capabilities over time without losing access to the tools you already use.
No. Your data will remain accessible where it is today.
Design and Make Platforms are integrated, cloud-connected software solutions that allow users to design, manufacture, and deliver anything from new buildings and infrastructure to products and media-and-entertainment productions. Design and Make Platforms unlock data and connect project workflows, allowing companies to deliver better, faster outcomes across the project lifecycle.
Industry clouds will comprise products that connect processes and streamline workflows in that industry, offering capabilities that span the full lifecycle of a project.
Autodesk Platform Services (APS), formerly Forge, is a set of evolving APIs and services to help you customize solutions, create innovative workflows, and integrate other tools and data with our platform. APS also offers an app marketplace of prebuilt solutions that help you quickly connect gaps and a central cloud-information model that streamlines how teams create and share project data.
Companies worldwide face a rapid evolution in business trends and practices; from the way people work to the way supply chains operate. Demographic pressures, shifting consumer priorities, and demand for sustainable solutions are creating challenges across every industry. Traditional siloed tools and ways of working no longer meet these needs. Therefore, industries are witnessing a shift toward cloud-connected and integrated software solutions and data-driven approaches to address today’s challenges.
The Autodesk Platform will enable both digital and industry transformation by reimagining project workflows, simplifying how you access and use our tools, and connecting data across the entire lifecycle of a project to realize its full value. The platform will empower distributed teams to work fluidly across boundaries of projects. With products that are easy to use, learn, and deploy, you can harness project data to generate insights that flow through the entire project lifecycle. By removing barriers to collaboration and bringing data-backed insights to everyday decision making, The Autodesk Platform removes barriers to collaboration and provides data-backed insights, so you can spend less time coordinating processes or predicting outcomes and more time focusing on critical business decisions.
Businesses are experiencing an environment of increasingly distributed teams. Disconnected workflows and siloed data are common problems that cross industry lines. The Autodesk Platform will let you customize, extend, and connect Autodesk products with other solutions to create end-to-end workflows that meet your business objectives. These end-to-end workflows will connect project data and unlock the insights to ensure you and your stakeholders have the latest information in real time. By connecting the right people to the right data at the right time across entire project lifecycles, you’ll be able to accelerate collaboration and remove friction. And connected data opens future opportunities for automation and artificial intelligence, removing guesswork and manual work and leaving more time to focus on the outcomes that matter most to you.
