PartForge is collaborative AI for creating 3D CAD models. Describe the part you need in a sentence, or upload a photo, sketch or 3D file, and the AI builds a real parametric model. That's just the start of the conversation. Every forge is code under the hood, so you can keep refining anything the AI creates and adjust each dimension with the sliders and controls it builds along with the model.

Could you build this?
Partial The collaborative UI and code-backed CAD representation are buildable, but reliably turning a text, sketch, or photo into a correct parametric model is a hard, research-level generation problem.
What it would actually take: Build on a CAD kernel such as OpenCascade or CadQuery, with the model represented as code that an LLM edits, plus a web 3D viewer. The hard part is training or fine-tuning generation that yields valid, manufacturable geometry from images and sketches, which requires ML and CAD-geometry expertise and a large dataset of CAD code. Validation and collaboration features add significant engineering effort.
