What is Autodesk Forma?
Autodesk Forma was formed when Autodesk Construction Cloud joined the Forma Industry Cloud in 2026, bringing design and construction data into a single connected platform.
- Automatically generates 3D massing models from site data in under 2 minutes
- Runs feasibility and site analysis across 100+ criteria, including noise, wind, sun, and microclimate
- Provides a common data environment spanning planning through operations
- Supports generative design for faster, more informed early-stage decisions
Key Benefits and Features
- Faster Feasibility Studies: Automatically sourced data and integrated analyses help deliver comprehensive feasibility studies in half the time.
- Win More Projects: Forma helps firms increase activity and win competitions by providing compelling, data-driven proposals.
- Better Design Outcomes: Use generative design to rapidly create and iterate different massing models, optimizing for density, living quality, and regulations.
- Improved Collaboration: Cloud-based platform allows teams to collaborate in real-time on the same 3D model from anywhere.
- Seamless Integration: Supports import/export of various BIM formats (OBJ, IFC, DXF, JSON, GeoJSON, etc.) and includes a "Send to Revit" add-in for high-fidelity data transfer.
- Data Management: Provides a common data environment with document and version control, permissions, markup tools, and issue tracking to ensure all team members work with the latest information.
What’s Changed From Autodesk Construction Cloud?
- Branding: ACC products are now branded as Forma:
- Autodesk Docs → Forma Data Management
- Autodesk BIM Collaborate Pro → Forma Design Collaboration
- Autodesk Build → Forma Build
- Autodesk Takeoff → Forma Takeoff
- Autodesk Estimate → Forma Estimate
- UI Updates: Product logos, navigation, and admin roles reflect the Forma brand. ACC Mobile App is now called Forma.
- No Workflow Disruption: No changes to workflows, data, licensing, logins, APIs, or integrations. All projects, members, and settings remain as is.
