Autodesk announces the public release of the Autodesk Product Help MCP [Model Context Protocol] Server: a new, read-only service that allows AI agents outside Autodesk products to securely access Autodesk’s help documentation, the company explains. The service enables AI agents to deliver answers using up-to-date Autodesk documentation.

What the Server Enables

The Product Help MCP Server provides access to Autodesk Help content across 110+ products. Whether getting started with a product, exploring new capabilities, or resolving an issue, AI assistants can now reference authoritative Autodesk documentation.

The Autodesk Product Help MCP Server is available now for free. As gold-level members of the Agentic AI Foundation, Autodesk says it is collaborating with the industry to advance open protocols, tooling, and best practices for agent-based AI systems.  

Autodesk plans to continue exploring ways to expand MCP support, within Autodesk Assistant and through additional MCP-based offerings.
