CadPeek
Open DWG & DXF in your browser — no AutoCAD
CadPeek is a free browser platform for opening DWG/DXF without AutoCAD. View layers, search labels, measure distances, mark up issues, convert DWG↔DXF and CAD→PDF, and share view-only links. Built for contractors, engineers, owners, and reviewers. Local-first parsing by default, no install. Supports DWG R12–2024.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built CadPeek because CAD files still get emailed to people who can’t open them.
Every week I see the same loop: a contractor sends a DWG shop drawing, the client has no AutoCAD, someone screenshots a PDF, and version chaos starts. AutoCAD is $250+/month per seat; “free viewers” often mean IT tickets and Windows-only installs.
CadPeek is the fix I wanted in the field:
Open DWG/DXF in Chrome/Safari — no plugin, no install
14 focused tools — each does one job (convert, analyze, measure, markup, PDF overlay, share link, etc.)
Local-first — parsing runs in your browser unless you explicitly share a link
Real workflows — measure on live geometry (not scaled PDFs), search device tags, batch-rename layers, export text to Excel, redline with arrows/notes and PNG export
We’re especially useful for MEP, fire protection, and shop drawing review, but it works for general architectural plans too.
Free to start — 50MB per file, no account required during launch.
I’d love your feedback:
What’s the first CAD pain you’d want solved in-browser?
Would you use this on a tablet on site?

Thanks for checking us out 🙏
