zCAD. AI Turns Prompts Into Parametric CAD
zCAD. AI generates editable B-rep CAD parts and assemblies from text prompts or reference images, including dimensions, constraints and assembly mates. Users can inspect and refine models in zCAD Online, then export geometry as STEP.
zCAD. AI’s compelling bet is turning generative 3D from visual ideation into structured engineering work. The workflow looks promising, but manufacturing-grade accuracy still depends on human validation.
- –Generates editable solid geometry rather than static meshes
- –Supports multi-part assemblies, mating relationships and reference images
- –Connects prompt-based generation to browser CAD editing and collaboration
- –STEP export improves interoperability, but loses original feature history and assembly constraints
- –Beta plans are accessible, though free accounts make models public and allow generation data to be used for training
