In their own words
AutoBuild
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.
Schematicraft
Schematicraft is a schematic library and converter for sharing Minecraft builds across formats, with support for Hytale Prefab files as well. Its browser converter handles Litematica, WorldEdit/Sponge, legacy MCEdit, Structure Block/Create, Building Gadgets, Bedrock Structure, and Hytale Prefab, and lists 42 conversions. Before downloading, users can see which data will carry over or be dropped; formats that record a Minecraft version allow a version choice. Cross-edition and cross-game conversions translate block names, and some other data may not transfer. The public library has searchable builds, filters, and curated collections. Schematic pages show block counts, unique block types, dimensions, and material lists. Without an account, the converter accepts files up to 8 MB. Schematicraft says it does not keep uploaded files but records encountered formats, blocks, and versions to improve conversions. An official alpha mod adds in-game library access and integration with Create and Building Gadgets 2. Developers can use an API for search, library access, uploads, downloads, and conversion; API endpoints are rate limited.
