Makistry offers an AI‑powered parametric CAD platform that lets engineers, designers, and makers create and edit 3D models through conversational prompts and real‑time design suggestions. Users can generate fully editable, manufacturable parts—such as a spur gear with specific teeth and module—instantly, then export to standard CAE/CAM file formats for downstream workflows. The tool includes version history, collaborative sharing, and built‑in design viewers to streamline ideation to production.

Problem
Creating fully parametric 3D parts and assemblies traditionally requires specialized CAD software, extensive manual modeling, and steep learning curves, which slows ideation, prototyping, and handoff to manufacturing.
Solution
Makistry offers an AI‑powered parametric CAD platform that translates natural‑language prompts into editable 3D models. Users interact through a conversational interface that supports real‑time design suggestions, version history, and instant updates to geometry. The generated parts and assemblies remain fully parametric, allowing downstream modifications without loss of fidelity. Export options include standard CAE/CAM file formats, enabling seamless integration with existing engineering and manufacturing toolchains. The platform is designed for engineers, designers, and makers to accelerate concept development, automate template creation, and streamline collaboration.
Target Audience
Primary users are mechanical engineers, product designers, and makers who need rapid, editable 3D modeling and efficient handoff to manufacturing pipelines.
