Alias StudioTools is a family of computer-aided industrial design products starting with DesignStudio as the entry-level conceptual design system, progressing to Studio, and then to AutoStudio as the top-of-the-line product with all of the options.

Tools for sketching, modeling and visualization are combined in one software package. It meets the specialized needs of designers: sketching, freedom to experiment with shape and form, creating organic shapes, visualization for design review, and data exchange with CAD packages.

As the product is sold specifically as connah CAID rather than CAD, its tools and abilities are oriented more towards the "styling" aspect of design - that is to say, the product's housing and outer appearance. It does not go into mechanical detail to anywhere near the extent that CAD programs such as AutoCAD, ProENGINEER and SolidWorks do, but has a much more powerful set of tools for the creation of precisely sculpted curves and surfaces.

From version 13 and up StudioTools changed its name to AliasStudio.
