The short version

  • Only Tinkercad has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: CoConstruct coConstruct does not publish pricing information on their website; Tinkercad limited to simple block-based modeling, unsuitable for complex or precise mechanical CAD work.
  • They diverge on capability: CoConstruct covers Project scheduling, Tinkercad covers Block-Based 3D Modeling.
