02 / Capabilities

Precision Engineering, Architectural Drafting & CAD

01 / Drafting Engine

Object Snaps & Precision

Sub-micron precision math with automatic snaps: endpoint, midpoint, center, intersection, tangent, and perpendicular. Infinite smooth pan & zoom.

02 / Command Line

Familiar AutoCAD Aliases

Keep your keyboard muscle memory intact: type `L` for line, `C` for circle, `REC` for rectangle, `TR` for trim, `O` for offset, and `EXT` for extend.

03 / Architectural Hatch

Pick-Point Boundary Fill

Associative wall hatching, room boundary schedules, concrete stippling, and insulation patterns that update dynamically when walls are stretched.

04 / CNC & Dieline Ready

Export DXF & 1:1 Vector SVG

Export layered CAD files with exact line weights and colors (#ff007f cut, #00d2ff crease) directly to Kongsberg, Zünd, laser cutters, and CNC mills.

05 / Local Privacy

100% Offline Proprietary CAD

Patented engineering drawings and defense prototypes never leave your local workstation. Zero mandatory cloud logins, DRM dongles, or telemetry.

06 / Agent Control

MCP & Parametric Scripts

Automate drafting tasks with Claude and Cursor. Generate complex mechanical flanges or architectural floor plans directly from parametric code.
