[[Image:AutoCAD 2006 drawing.png|thumb|right|250px|A screenshot of [[AutoCAD]] (2006), Autodesk's flagship product.]]
Platform Solutions and Emerging Business (PSEB) division develops and manages the product foundation for most Autodesk offerings across multiple markets, including Autodesk's flagship product [[AutoCAD]], AutoCAD LT, AutoCAD for Mac, and AutoCAD mobile app (formerly AutoCAD 360). Autodesk Suites, Subscription and Web Services, which include Autodesk Cloud, Autodesk Labs, and Global Engineering are also part of PSEB. In what was seen as an unusual step for a maker of high-end business software, Autodesk began offering AutoCAD LT 2012 for Mac through the Apple Mac App Store.<ref>{{cite news | url=https://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2011/08/16/autodesk-adopts-apple-app-store-for-mac-software/ | title=Autodesk Adopts Apple App Store for Mac Software (Wall Street Journal Digits Blog) | work=The Wall Street Journal | first=Don | last=Clark | date=August 16, 2011}}</ref> Also part of PSEB is the Autodesk Consumer Product Group, which was created in November 2010 to generate interest in 3-D design and “foster a new wave of designers who hunger for sophisticated software”.<ref>{{cite news | url=http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/05/07/autodesk-for-the-people/ | title=Autodesk for the People (The New York Times Bits Blog) | first=Ashlee | last=Vance | author-link=Ashlee Vance | date=May 7, 2010}}</ref> Users range from children, students and artists to makers and DIYers.<ref>{{cite magazine | url=https://www.wired.com/epicenter/2011/05/democratizing-design/ | title=Democratizing Design: Autodesk's CEO Carl Bass Announces 123D | magazine=Wired | first=Sam | last=Gustin | date=May 3, 2011}}</ref>

=== Genetic engineering ===
[https://web.archive.org/web/20180327212058/https://lifesciences.autodesk.com/ Autodesk Life Sciences] is an extensible toolkit for genetic engineering. It visualises DNA code (Molecule Viewer), and has a tool for writing DNA code (genetic constructor). The tool allows work on molecule-level, rather than nucleobase-level (A, C, G, T) constructs.

In 2018, all projects were suspended.<ref name="lifesciences"/>

===Media and entertainment===
[[Autodesk Media and Entertainment]] products are designed for digital media creation, management, and delivery, from film and television visual effects, color grading, and editing to animation, game development, and design visualization. Autodesk's Media and Entertainment Division is based in Montreal, Quebec. It was established in 1999 after Autodesk, Inc. acquired Discreet Logic, Inc. and merged its operations with Kinetix. In January 2006, Autodesk acquired Alias, a developer of 3D graphics technology. In October 2008, Autodesk acquired the Softimage brand from Avid.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.fxguide.com/quicktakes/autodesk-completes-acquisition-of-softimage/|title=Autodesk Completes Acquisition of Softimage|date=2008-11-19|work=fxguide|access-date=2017-07-20|language=en-US}}</ref> The principal product offerings from the Media and Entertainment Division are [[IFF (software)|Flame]], [[ShotGrid|Flow Production Tracking]], and the Media & Entertainment Collection, which include [[Autodesk Maya|Maya]], [[Autodesk 3ds Max|3ds Max]], [[Arnold (software)|Arnold]], [[Autodesk MotionBuilder|MotionBuilder]], [[Autodesk Mudbox|Mudbox]], [[Golaem Crowd|Golaem]], and ReCap Pro.
