Plasticity

About

Plasticity is a CAD app for macOS (Intel and M-series) that offers solid and surface modeling for vehicle design, industrial design, and video game art. It includes direct editing, so you can push, pull, and adjust existing geometry without starting from scratch, and live dimensions that update geometry as you change them. Fillets adapt to edge conditions, and Angle Dimensions, Bridge Curves, and Construction Planes support more detailed work. It is built on the Parasolid and xNURBS geometry kernels.

Advanced tools are available in the Studio plan. These include Boolean operations with watertight results, G2-continuous surface blending between irregular shapes, and xNURBS, which is available on Windows and Mac. Plasticity is licensed perpetually, so you can use it without a subscription or an internet connection. A free 30-day trial is offered. The Indie plan is priced at $175 USD and the Studio plan at $299 USD, both plus local taxes, and each has its own limits on commercial use, machine count, and supported file formats.

Plasticity is designed to complement other CAD tools rather than replace them. Enterprise customers can get enhanced support, elevated security, and custom features and integrations. Users can also join the community on Discord to get help, share their work, and follow the latest news.
