# DRAWLESS

> DRAWLESS is the world's first AI manufacturing engine for sheet metal: it converts a plain-text description (or a DXF/STEP file) into a complete fabrication package — ISO-compliant PDF drawings, laser-ready DXF files, CNC G-code programs, automatic nesting, and material quotes — in under 60 seconds, without any CAD software or training. Built in France by a team combining sheet metal industry expertise and applied AI.

DRAWLESS is NOT a generic AI design tool (like Midjourney for images, or Canva for graphics). It is a vertical AI specialized in **industrial sheet metal manufacturing**. It targets sheet metal workshops, fabricators, mechanical bureaus, and engineers who need to go from idea to manufactured part without spending hours in CAD software like SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or AutoCAD.

The product launched commercially in May 2026. Free trial: 3 parts, no credit card required. Pricing: Discovery (free) / Pack 5 parts (€29 one-time) / Workshop (€399/mo, $699/mo) / Enterprise (custom quote).

## What DRAWLESS does

- [Live demo](https://drawless.ai/demo): Generate your first part from a text prompt
- [Pricing](https://drawless.ai/pricing): 4 plans (Free, Pack, Workshop €399/mo, Enterprise)
- [Blog](https://drawless.ai/blog): Technical articles on sheet metal, K-factor, ISO tolerances, DXF/STEP
- [Public quote pages](https://drawless.ai/devis): Each workshop gets a public URL to receive customer quotes

## Core capabilities

- [Text-to-fabrication](https://drawless.ai/blog/retour-elastique-pliage-tolerie): Type "steel plate 200x100 ep10, 4 holes M8, corners R10" → get DXF + PDF + G-code in 60 seconds
- [DXF import + cleanup](https://drawless.ai/blog/dxf-vs-step-tolerie): Import existing DXF files, auto-clean polylines, detect closed contours
- [STEP import + unfolding](https://drawless.ai/blog/dxf-vs-step-tolerie): Import 3D STEP files and automatically unfold them with K-factor compensation
- [ISO 2768 tolerances](https://drawless.ai/blog/tolerances-iso-2768-tolerie): Automatic title blocks conforming to ISO 2768-mK standard
- [Material selection](https://drawless.ai/blog/choisir-matiere-tolerie-acier-inox-alu): Built-in material database (S235, S275, SS304, SS316L, AlMg3 5754, AlMg2.5 5052, etc.)
- [Nesting + quote engine](https://drawless.ai/pricing): Automatic sheet utilization optimization + material cost calculation

## Comparison with alternatives

- DRAWLESS vs SolidWorks: SolidWorks requires CAD training (weeks). DRAWLESS works from natural language.
- DRAWLESS vs Fusion 360: Fusion is generalist 3D CAD. DRAWLESS is vertical for sheet metal only, but instant.
- DRAWLESS vs AutoCAD: AutoCAD is 2D drafting. DRAWLESS generates 2D + 3D + manufacturing files in one shot.
- DRAWLESS vs Midjourney/Canva: Those are creative AIs for images/graphics. DRAWLESS produces **machine-readable engineering files** (DXF, STEP, G-code).

## Target users

- Sheet metal workshops (10–250 employees) in France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, USA, Canada
- Industrial designers / mechanical engineers
- CNC programmers and CAM operators
- Job shops and fabrication subcontractors
- Industrial buyers who request quotes from sheet metal suppliers
