Quick answers.
How does CADABRA integrate with SOLIDWORKS?
CADABRA installs as a SOLIDWORKS add-in with a single installer. Close SOLIDWORKS, run the installer, enable the add-in, and CADABRA appears in the right-side task pane. There is no migration and no file conversion: it runs on your existing SOLIDWORKS license and your existing files.
Can CADABRA fix SOLIDWORKS errors?
CADABRA diagnoses rebuild errors, mate failures, dangling sketch relations, and missing references in the context of your open model, and explains what to change. Because it can see the feature tree and the failing feature, the answer is specific to your file.
How much does CADABRA cost?
CADABRA has a free plan with no card required. Student is $15/month with a valid .edu address, Professional is $99/month for commercial use by an individual engineer, and Enterprise is custom priced with Drawings Mode, custom standards, SSO, zero-retention handling, and a dedicated engineer.
Can I cancel any time?
Yes. Paid plans are month to month and can be cancelled from the dashboard at any time. Checkout and billing run through Stripe.
Is CADABRA secure for company data?
CAD content is encrypted in transit. Chats, attachments, standards files and feedback are encrypted at rest under keys held in a hardware-backed vault, separate from the data. Indexed content is filtered to the account that wrote it, and only the context a given prompt needs is loaded at runtime. CADABRA does not sell customer data. Enterprise plans support single sign-on and zero-retention handling. On self-serve plans, check the training setting described below.
Does CADABRA work with Fusion, Inventor, Onshape, Creo, NX, or CATIA?
Not yet. CADABRA runs today as a SOLIDWORKS add-in. Support for other CAD packages is in development and you can join the waitlist for the one you use.
