Introducing TurboCAD® Copilot: Revolutionizing the CAD User Experience with AI

NOVATO, Calif. October 24, 2024 – IMSI® Design, a leading developer of CAD software solutions, announced today the release of TurboCAD® 2024.1, including Platinum, Professional, Deluxe and Designer versions for Windows® desktop PCs. Our dedicated TurboCAD® team has meticulously crafted this follow-up Service Pack, tailored specifically for our loyal community.

This Service Pack features the integration of TurboCAD® Copilot and over 50 tweaks and bug fixes, showcasing cutting-edge innovation.

AI-Powered TurboCAD® Copilot Technology

The TurboCAD® Copilot feature introduces an AI-driven companion engineered to elevate the design journey. It serves four primary purposes:

  • Responding to help related queries how to use the software.
  • Delivering data-driven insights about CAD files.
  • Utilizing an extensive AI knowledge base for a wide range of questions.
  • Using Text to Image AI to create textures and backgrounds for photo rendering.

This integrated AI tool streamlines navigation, expedites the project's progress, and enhances design endeavors with insightful analysis.

TurboCAD® Copilot supports two levels: TurboCAD® Copilot Help (free 1-year-subscription for all TurboCAD® variants) and TurboCAD®Copilot Professional (available as 1-year-subsription service).

TurboCAD® Copilot Help uses “RAG” (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) and documentation to search for content relevant to questions. TurboCAD® Copilot Professional includes these Help features and offers additional capabilities such as “Talk to your CAD Data”, general AI access, and Text to Image. Furthermore, it adeptly handles diverse multilingual requests, from guiding through the initial steps of using TurboCAD® to sharing intriguing details about a file or providing insights on design trends and principles.

“With the introduction of TurboCAD® Copilot, we are entering a new era of CAD that allows the designer not only the ability to talk to documentation but to talk directly to their CAD data. Talk to CAD revolutionizes how AI can interact directly to data in the context of CAD objects, geometry, topology, parameters, and custom attributes. Designers can now ask questions that were previously constrained by traditional UI conventions—questions like ‘Examine my file for 3D printing suitability and suggest ways to reduce printing costs’—providing a new way to enhance quality and productivity,” states Tim Olson, Vice President of IMSI Design”
