 TAD in its current form (i.e. using the design component called TAD Designer Lite)  is meant for architects offices -- small and medium size. Especially in developing countries. These offices typically are often in a metaphorical fire-fighting exercise daily.  They are plagued by employee problems, problems of getting fees on time, getting underpaid and several other issues. TAD is actually for the main designers there.  TAD in its current form (i.e. using the design component called TAD Designer Lite)  is meant for architects offices -- small and medium size.

-Why?  TAD releases a lot of time for the main designers.  You see; in most of these small and medium size offices; the top person (or partners) are actually quite talented. But the daily fire-fighting leads to very little time for actual designing. That is why TAD comes in there; and allows the main person to work efficiently in fleshing out a design.+Why?  TAD releases a lot of time for the main designers.  You see; in most of these small and medium size offices; the top person (or partners) are actually quite talented.

 +//The author of TAD; Sabu Francis, had his architects practice working in such a manner. He hardly had any time for design -- but with TAD, he was sure that enough attention was being given to the designing -- and he could then delegate work to others as he went chasing clients, etc.//
  
 TAD is actually quite minimalist and packs in a huge amount of power with very little in terms of  what is demanded by the user interface. Though the UI is quite different from conventional CAD and BIM software; it is not that there are tons of features to be learned. So if you put your mind to it, TAD can be learned even in half a day.  TAD is actually quite minimalist and packs in a huge amount of power with very little in terms of  what is demanded by the user interface.
