The opportunity

Almost everything made
starts as a drawing.

Furniture. Lighting. Fixtures. Façades. Industrial products. Interiors. If it's formed from sheet or folded metal, it lives in the same pipeline fabric automates — the long, expensive, gate-kept distance between an idea and a part that can be made. fabric removes the gatekeepers.

The wedge

Today
  • An idea needs a trained engineer to become real.
  • CAD software, sheet-metal knowledge, machine logic — all required.
  • Weeks of back-and-forth. High cost. Few can do it.
With fabric
  • A sentence becomes manufacturable parts.
  • The craft is in the engine. The client just speaks.
  • Hours, not weeks. A fraction of the cost. Anyone, anywhere.
The network

The intelligence layer
on the world's machines.

fabric is not a factory. It is the brain that drives one. It speaks the native language of the machines that already exist — and it can be installed anywhere there is fabrication capacity. The ambition is a global network: fabric on the floor of every workshop, partnered with the makers of the machines themselves.

Machine partners

Built to integrate with industry-standard hardware — laser cutters, press brakes, mills — from makers like TRUMPF and the broader fabrication ecosystem.

Fabrication network

A roster of partner workshops worldwide, so an idea designed anywhere can be made nearby — and delivered locally.

Idea to object, same day

The end state: describe it in the morning, fabricated and on its way by evening — fabric routing each part to the optimal machine and the nearest floor.

Where we are

Honest about the path.

Live today
  • The bench, on this page — a sentence becomes engineered sheet-metal parts, with a DXF a laser cutter accepts and a bill of materials.
  • AiAD | fabric — drop your own STEP or GLB file; fabric reads the geometry, counts the real folds, plans the fabrication and prices it.
  • Describe an idea and watch it become a real 3D model — turnable, lit, in your chosen material.
  • The intake that briefs a full commission to Gilad's studio is working now.
In training
  • The automated path into Autodesk Inventor — parts & assembly.
  • STEP export — fabric reads B-rep today; writing it is the next step.
  • The fabrication network as a signed roster — named factories, rates they have confirmed themselves.

We're not promising magic. We're teaching a machine a craft — one capability at a time, on a real master's work. That takes the discipline of the craft itself.

We believe the distance between an idea and an object is too long, and too guarded.

We believe the knowledge to cross it — how to think in metal, how to make a thing stand and fold and hold — can be learned by a machine. Not to replace the maker, but to extend the maker's reach.

We believe a sentence should be able to become a part.

fabric is how we close the distance.

For investors & partners

Build the engine
of the next era.

AiAD is a category waiting to be defined — and fabric is being built to define it. We're speaking with investors and fabrication partners who want to help carry an idea from a sentence to the world's factory floors.
