  • •Local-first architecture keeps designs private with no cloud dependency
  • •Natural language input removes CAD learning curve for replacement parts
Weaknesses
  • •Requires external LLM API key with ongoing usage costs
  • •Complex mechanical designs may exceed current generation capabilities
