More handoffs, more opportunities to miss a drawing.
Stop repeating the same AutoCAD work.
Turn drawing-by-drawing operations into one controlled, reviewable batch—then see exactly what happened to every drawing.

01 / THE PROBLEMThe task is simple.
The task is simple.
The repetition is not.
A routine that takes two minutes becomes an afternoon when it must be repeated across a drawing register. The work is easy to lose track of, difficult to recover and far too dependent on memory.

02 / HOW IT WORKSFrom drawing set
From drawing set
to clear result.
BatchDraft keeps the sequence explicit. You choose the files and approved operation, review the setup, then let the app supervise each drawing through the run.
Select your drawings
Add individual DWGs or a folder, then choose how outputs should be handled.
Choose the approved work
Load AutoLISP and commands, or use a reusable workflow with declared effects.
Run and review
Follow live progress, see individual outcomes and inspect retained run evidence.
03 / PRODUCT CAPABILITIES
Purpose-built for repeatable drawing work.
No dashboards for the sake of dashboards. Just the controls and evidence an engineer needs to run a drawing set with confidence.
Build the drawing set
Add individual DWGs or a whole folder, then choose copy or deliberate in-place processing.
Define the work once
Load approved AutoLISP, arrange the command sequence, or choose a reusable guided workflow.
Review before running
Confirm the inputs, destination and operation before the selected AutoCAD host starts the batch.
Keep the evidence
Inspect per-drawing outcomes, attempts, warnings and readable or raw logs after every run.
04 / SAFETY & CONTROL
Automation you can inspect.
BatchDraft is built around explicit inputs, owned processes, bounded cancellation and retained evidence. Approved routines still run with your Windows permissions, so the product keeps that trust decision visible.
Read the current compatibility notesBounded executionHard timeouts and owned AutoCAD processes prevent one stalled drawing from holding the whole batch.
Deliberate retriesRetry information stays visible, with a fresh process for eligible attempts.
Controlled publicationCopy-mode outputs are staged and published only after successful processing.
Retained evidenceReview outcomes, issues, attempts and readable or raw logs after the run.

06 / COMMON QUESTIONS
Straight answers for engineers and CAD managers.
01Is BatchDraft a replacement for AutoCAD?+
No. BatchDraft coordinates repeatable work through an installed, supported AutoCAD host. It is designed to remove drawing-by-drawing repetition, not replace CAD authoring.
02What can I run across a drawing set?+
The current product supports approved AutoLISP files, ordered AutoCAD command sequences and reusable workflow packs with declared inputs and outputs.
03Can I protect my source drawings?+
Copy mode stages work in an output folder and publishes an output only after a successful run. In-place mode is deliberate and cannot promise rollback if an AutoCAD command partially changes a drawing before failing.
04Which AutoCAD versions are supported?+
BatchDraft supports AutoCAD 2024 and newer, including regular AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT. Headless execution is the preferred mode. Windowed GUI execution is experimental, but available for commands that only work in windowed AutoCAD.
05Can I try it before paying?+
The planned launch offer is a full-featured 14-day trial with no card required. Trial and commercial licensing are still being implemented.
