Reliable, Easy to Use Design Software
AI-enabled model and editing
SkyCiv’s Structural Analysis and CAD software both come with powerful AI features to help you model and edit faster. The AI Assistant features:
- A trained LLM that can modify, build and query your model
- Built in structural engineering context – to ensure it’s making informed and considered changes based on core structural engineering principles
- Highlights modified elements and allows users to undo if they’re not happy with proposed changes
- Prompts questions and clarification when context or action is unclear
- Context remains with your model when you save your file
WHY ENGINEERs SWITCH
Structural analysis software that runs the full workflow
Easy and powerful FEA analysis
Run linear, non-linear, buckling and dynamic analysis within a single solver. No separate modules for complex analysis types.
Integrated design checks
Steel, concrete, timber and cold-formed design modules run directly on your analysis results. No exporting, re-entry or version mismatches.
Detailed calculation reports
Every formula, design check and
reference is shown in full, so you can defend every number, not just the result.

A quick look at some example AI Assistant tasks
Real cases of what AI Assistant can do
Adjust Floor Heights
Adjust building elevations and ensure proper connectivity with a simple prompt. The AI Assistant is fully trained on S3D models as well as core structural engineering rules and principles – to ensure changes are considered and accurate.
Example prompt: Increase floor heights from 3.2m to 3.6m
Move gridlines and associated elements
AI Assistant is also available on our 2D CAD software – CloudCAD.
Adjusting drawings can be extremely time consuming. Moving gridlines, shifting elements, making sure everything is still connected – it can be painstaking.
Example prompt: Please shift gridline 3 North by 1000mm, along with all associated elements (please updates all floors)
Build models from scratch
Starting a fresh model, simply prompt it with your dimensions and let the AI Assistant build the outline and core of your building.
Example prompt: Please build me a 60m x 25x warehouse, gable roof, columns spaced at 4.5m using UB 200 UB 31.4. 10 degree roof pitch, eaves at 6m. The gable roof should have bracing rods between them for lateral loads.
Swap out and align sections
Easily swap out sections and even aligning them for proper structural design.
Example prompt: Swap out internal columns for UB 410 (any thickness) and outer columns for UB 300 (any thickness). Please set beams as 200 UB 29.8.
Example prompt 2: Please align the column strong axis to the X and Z directions, to ensure they are taking wind loads on their strong axis.
Shifting core walls and elevator shafts
Complex model changes can take hours, particularly when there are a lot of elements and connectivity issues to consider. Simply run a prompt and then review the changes in minutes!
Example prompt: Shift my concrete core walls 1.5m to the positive Z direction. There are cutouts on the plates that will need to be shifted too

testimonials
Trusted by thousands
The ease of use and the presentation of the results are both awesome. I have had ongoing interaction with the support team and everyone is excellent.
Mitch Frumkin
CEO OF KIPCON
It is used for various civil and mechanical engineering courses and the students love it. We are happy with the continuous updates to SkyCiv as well, highly recommended.
Dr Kenneth R. Leitch
Assoc. Prof. at Texas A&M
It was easily the most intuitive package available to learn; it is particularly easy to build the 3D model and define nodes, members, supports, materials, sections, then apply loads & combinations.
Stuart Agars
Managing Director of Struct-Sure Limited
SkyCiv has been a great tool to help efficiently and clearly document and update design results for a member of a small company with multiple responsibilities.
