Autodesk OEM Software Partner Program

The Autodesk OEM Software Partner Program is our portfolio of commercial partnership agreements for third-party solution developers.

Currently used by many partners worldwide, the program is exclusively for those who develop—or want to develop—customized applications based on Autodesk software.

As an OEM software partner, you gain more than easy access to the world’s leading design tools. You also get programming information, training, and marketing support. Most importantly, you benefit from the reputation, market reach, and expertise of a software partner with an installed base of approximately 7 million users.

The OEM Software Partner Program consists of two distinct commercial agreement models- Build and Bundle.
Build is the classical OEM program and includes AutoCAD OEM, Inventor OEM and the RealDWG SDK. Licensing is handled globally by our partner Tech Soft 3D.

Bundle is the full product bundled with your software solution or machine. Learn more about ISV Bundles here.
