Drafting is the bottleneck between winning the job and actually delivering it. Hire in-house, and you’re looking at $60,000+ a year before benefits, super and the desk they sit at. Use a per-drawing service, and you’re re-explaining your title blocks and layer standards on every single job, then waiting days for a markup to come back. And no, AI can’t save you here either. It’s great at a concept sketch, hopeless at a dimensioned, code-compliant set.
Outsourcey places a dedicated CAD drafter (full-time, part-time, whatever you need) who learns your title blocks, layer conventions and templates once, works inside your software, and hands back drawings while your office is asleep. Same drafter, every project. Consistent, construction-ready output, without the overhead of a local hire or the guesswork of a stranger who’s never seen your standards before.
A per-drawing shop doesn't know you exist between invoices. An in-house hire is brilliant but expensive and slow to scale. A dedicated Outsourcey CAD drafter learns your world once and stays in it.
Genuine CAD drafting services covering the full lifecycle of a drawing set:
Here's the number everyone's actually here for: a dedicated offshore CAD drafter through Outsourcey starts at $8 per hour, salary, benefits, payroll, HR, and equipment all included, no setup fees, and no lock-in contract if it's not working out (it will).
AI can generate concept sketches and speed up repetitive tasks, but it can’t yet produce a dimensioned, code-compliant, construction-ready drawing that a permit office or fabricator will accept. Drafting is judgement; knowing which detail matters, which standard applies, and what the builder actually needs on site. For now, and for the foreseeable future, that’s still a human job. AI is a tool your drafter uses to move faster, not a replacement for one.
And to be just as upfront about when a dedicated drafter isn’t the right call:
Every day you don't have a dedicated drafter is another day you're either paying US rates, re-explaining your standards to a stranger, or drafting the thing yourself at 9pm.
Send us one drawing, and we'll hand back a free sample on your actual project and pair you with a dedicated CAD drafter for your team in two weeks flat.
No lock-in contracts. No setup fees. Live in two weeks.
Outsourcey is leading the way in building offshore teams for enhanced productivity.
FAQs
A dedicated offshore CAD drafter through Outsourcey starts from $8 per hour, all-inclusive of salary, benefits, payroll, HR and equipment. There’s no setup fee and no lock-in contract, and we’ll beat any comparable quote you find.
AutoCAD, Revit, Civil 3D, SolidWorks, MicroStation, SketchUp. Site FAQ: specialised software. Note that AutoCAD may incur an additional cost on top of the hourly rate. Every drafter works inside your software and to your CAD standards, not their own preferred workflow.
Not for construction-ready work. AI can generate concepts and speed up repetitive tasks, but it can’t yet produce dimensioned, code-compliant drawings a permit office or fabricator will accept. Drafting is judgment, and that stays a human job. Your drafter uses AI as a tool, not a substitute.
Small drawing sets from 24-48 hrs; full sets from 3-5 business days, depending on scope. Time zone gap means work can be done overnight. Your drafter works while your office sleeps, so revisions are often back on your desk before your day even starts.
Yes, that’s the point of a dedicated drafter over a per-drawing service. They learn your title blocks, layer conventions, templates, and file structure once, then produce consistent drawings across all subsequent projects.
We cover architectural, structural, and MEP drafting services, as well as mechanical and civil work. We match you with a drafter experienced in your specific discipline.
No, a licensed engineer or architect in your jurisdiction must review and stamp drawings. Our drafters produce the drawings to your standard; your licensed professional reviews them and takes responsibility for the stamp.
Yes, converting PDFs, scans and paper drawings into clean, editable CAD files is one of the most common jobs we handle.
Two weeks from scoping call to live drawings. Recruitment and testing take 7–10 days, you interview and review sample work, and onboarding plus software access takes 2–3 days.
Yes. No minimum headcount, no lock-in contract. Add drafters when the pipeline’s full, scale back when it’s quiet. That’s the whole model.
