To provide the best experience for all of the Fusion 360 communities, two new subscription types are being introduced: Fusion 360 for personal use and Fusion 360 for startups.
These new subscription types replace the existing hobbyist/startup subscription types but remain free for personal use and qualifying startups.
Effective today, Fusion 360 is available through the following four subscription types to address the needs of our multiple Fusion 360 communities:
- Fusion 360 – for professional, commercial purposes
- Fusion 360 for personal use – for non-commercial use (some exceptions apply)
- Fusion 360 for startups – for startups developing new products (qualifications are required)
- Fusion 360 for education – for educational institutions or student use only.
What does this mean for me?
