Product designers and engineers struggle to bridge the gap between digital design and physical manufacturing at scale
Product designers, engineers, and manufacturers face significant friction converting CAD designs into manufacturable products, managing supplier relationships, and scaling production without deep manufacturing expertise. Current workflows require switching between multiple disconnected tools, manual back-and-forth communication with manufacturers, and expensive design iterations when manufacturing constraints aren't considered upfront. This creates delays, cost overruns, and failed product launches, especially for startups and small manufacturers without in-house production capabilities.
