At the moment the service is still free because it is in beta, in the future it won't be anymore but we don't have public pricing available yet.

 

The idea is that we will charge for the translation, that is conversion of CAD data to web viewable format. However viewing the models in the browser will always be free.

 

Storage space is unlimited but I cannot tell you yet if and how this will be priced. Comparing to what this service allows you to do, this will be cheap!

 

Comeback to us in a month or so if you want more specific info about the pricing model.

 

Hope that helps,

Philippe

As illustrated here Forge has 2 pricing plans: Explore (<25 assets generated/mo) and Build (<300 assets).
What happens if a website/app has to manage more than 300 assets/mo?
How are assets counted if we have many Forge API apps?


We have thousand of potential users that (could) upload many files each… and we MUST give them the opportunity to evaluate the quality of Forge service: so a upper limit of 300/mo assets is way low... And the cost is way high!

We have very much the same question. If we (as a software provider) use Forge platform should we assume that all our customers need to subscribe to Forge "Build"? Is there an enterprise/reseller plan that would allow us to sell our solution with Forge?
The usage based pricing is flexible, but at this point it is very difficult for us to estimate if the quotas in Explore and Build are sufficient.

How are the additional API packs priced? If we don't consume the 3D printing API at all, but would use a lot of Data Management API - could we just pick that?

Thanks!

Like every good thing, the service is not free, please email forge.help@autodesk.com for info about the pricing.

 

There is no limitation to the storage duration or size of your data.

 

I hope that helps,

Philippe.
