AutoCAD 2026 brings a smarter and more connected design experience with major upgrades to Activity Insights, a feature designed to improve team visibility, collaboration, and decision-making throughout the design process.
In fast-paced projects, keeping up with design changes can be a challenge. With the enhanced Activity Insights in AutoCAD 2026, staying informed is easier than ever. This tool now provides a detailed overview of all saved activities made by collaborators on a drawing, allowing you to quickly catch up on edits and progress made since your last session.
Key Highlights of Activity Insights:
- Comprehensive Change Tracking: Get a clear view of every save action, including who made changes and when.
- Catch Up with Confidence: Instantly identify what’s new or different in the file since you last opened it—no more guesswork or missed updates.
- Detailed Save Information: When you select a saved version, you’ll see:
- The previous save state of the drawing
- The workflow used during the session
- The edit duration, showing how long changes were made
- Any changes in file size, offering insight into the scale of updates
- Team Collaboration Made Easy: These insights improve visibility across teams, helping everyone stay aligned and aware of project status.
- Better Workflow Management: With greater transparency into who did what and when, project leads can make better decisions, allocate resources effectively, and prevent rework.
- Informed Design Decisions: Seeing the history of changes provides valuable context for current and future design choices.
AutoCAD 2026’s Activity Insights is more than a history log—it’s a powerful collaboration tool. By providing actionable visibility into project activity, it helps teams work smarter, faster, and with greater clarity. Whether you’re managing a team or working solo, this upgrade will streamline your workflow and elevate your design process.
