AutoBuild vs CurseForge

AutoBuild is a Minecraft building mod for browsing schematics, saving builds, and loading public designs in-game. Its community library is intended for builds shared by AutoBuild creators, although the library page currently shows no listing results. Users can upload.schem files with screenshots, a category, and visibility settings; staff may review submissions before they reach the public library. Public schematics can also appear in Discord updates. The mod supports.schem and.litematic files, offers a 3D preview, and uses an in-game placement workflow. To send a schematic to the mod, users install it and link their website account from the in-game Account tab. AutoBuild is available for desktop and listed platforms include Linux, macOS, web, and Windows. Its plan costs nothing and includes public library access, uploads, and in-game loading. AutoBuild+ costs nothing, but is available only through official giveaways; active access adds profile customization, premium schematics, premium tools, and future features. Downloads are linked through Modrinth and CurseForge. AutoBuild says it is not an official Minecraft product and is not approved by or associated with Mojang or Microsoft.

CurseForge is a catalog for finding and downloading Minecraft mods and modpacks. Its Minecraft browse page lists Forge, Fabric, NeoForge, and Quilt, and displays more than 10,000 projects. Users can filter by game version and see dependency information, download tracking, and mod collections. The free web catalog provides access to Minecraft mods and modpacks, which the page describes as free. Premium access is available on the web and desktop client. Premium removes ads across CurseForge platforms and the desktop client, enables direct downloads without waiting delays, and includes custom themes and layout customization in the desktop experience. The monthly subscription is $2.99 per month. The annual subscription is $30.00 billed annually, listed from $35.88 with a 16% saving. Subscribers can cancel at any time and retain access through the billing cycle. Refunds are generally not offered, although exceptions may be considered individually. After Premium access ends, an account returns to free membership. CurseForge says mod authors receive 70% of subscription income.
