Pythagoras CAD goes cross-platform: Windows, Mac and Linux
One CAD solution. Three operating systems.
Your operating system shouldn’t determine which CAD software you can use. Whether you work on Windows, prefer a Mac or rely on Linux, you should have the freedom to choose the platform that works best for you.
With the next generation of Pythagoras CAD, that freedom becomes a reality.
Coming in Q1 2027, Pythagoras CAD will run natively on Windows, macOS and Linux. One powerful CAD solution, three operating systems, and more flexibility than ever before.
Back on Mac. This time, natively.
For many years, Pythagoras CAD was available on both Windows and Mac. As development shifted towards Windows, Mac users had to rely on virtual Windows environments to continue using the software.
Now, Pythagoras CAD is coming back to Mac.
And not through a workaround. The next generation will run directly on macOS, without installing Windows or configuring a virtual machine. This also eliminates graphics compatibility issues associated with virtual environments, allowing Mac users to take full advantage of their hardware.
No additional installations. No switching between operating systems. Just Pythagoras CAD, running natively on your Mac.
Hello Linux. A new platform, new possibilities.
For the first time, Pythagoras CAD is coming to Linux.
This opens new opportunities for surveyors, engineers and organisations that prefer working in a Linux environment. With native Linux support, you can now work directly in your preferred operating system, without workarounds or compromises.
More choice. More flexibility. The same powerful CAD tools.
Windows. Faster than ever before.
Windows users have trusted Pythagoras CAD for years. And with the next generation, their familiar software is about to take a major leap forward.
Up to 10x faster performance, a completely modernised rendering engine and significantly smoother workflows.
Opening large drawings, navigating complex projects, working with point clouds or performing everyday CAD operations: everything is designed to feel faster, more responsive and more efficient. The new technical foundation also allows Pythagoras CAD to handle significantly larger datasets, while reducing waiting times and making daily operations more intuitive.
And the best part? You can continue working in the Windows environment you know, with the tools you trust, but with a whole new level of performance.
Same trusted precision. A faster, more efficient way to work.
One CAD solution. More freedom to work your way.
Supporting three operating systems isn’t just about compatibility. It’s about giving professionals and organisations more freedom.
Choose the hardware and operating system that best suit your needs, without having to compromise on your CAD software. And for organisations working across multiple platforms, native support makes it easier to accommodate different working environments.
