What is Pi3D?

Pi3D is a Windows application that transforms 3D models in STEP file format into detailed workshop documentation specifically designed for manufacturers and engineering teams engaged in sheet metal and welded assembly projects. This software generates a variety of outputs, such as bills of materials, intricate drawings, ballooned assembly diagrams, flat pattern layouts, and cutting contours that are compatible with laser, plasma, and waterjet cutting methods. Additionally, it provides sequences for press-brake bending, ISO 2553 compliant weld drawings complete with seam measurements, operational lists, and customizable print sheets ranging from A4 to A0, all of which can feature a personalized title block. Notably, Pi3D functions independently without modifying or integrating with the original CAD system and operates as a standalone application that does not require any extra libraries or add-ins. It guarantees that all 3D models stay on the user's premises, thus negating the need for cloud storage solutions. Users can purchase the software through a one-time perpetual license that comes with continuous support, which effectively removes ongoing fees. Moreover, prospective clients are invited to submit a STEP file to obtain a free sample document set, enabling them to assess the software's functionalities before making a purchase decision. This approach underscores Pi3D's dedication to ensuring user satisfaction and accessibility while fostering a trustful relationship with potential customers. Ultimately, Pi3D strives to deliver practical solutions that enhance productivity and efficiency for its users.

What is OwlCAD?

OwlCAD gives makers, prototyping teams and schools a parametric CAD workspace that lives in the browser and is built around one goal: parts that are ready to print. Models are parameter-driven, so any dimension can be changed later and the geometry regenerates. Output is print-ready: Boolean results stay manifold, tolerance presets handle press, slip and loose fits, and a printability review catches overhangs, thin walls and non-watertight shapes ahead of export. Hollowing, lay-flat and material weight and cost estimates round it out. Modeling tools include sketching with constraints, edge-level fillets and chamfers, loft, sweep, patterns and datum planes, along with assemblies that support mates, an exploded view and a bill of materials. Over 30 generators produce gears, threaded parts, enclosures, bearings, hinges and Gridfinity bins. Files can be opened from STEP, OpenSCAD, STL, 3MF and OBJ, and saved to STEP, DXF, SVG, GLB, STL, 3MF and OBJ. Work is protected by local-first autosave plus cloud projects with version history and sharing. Designers can publish customizable models with adjustable parameters for others to tailor and download, and every plan, Free included, carries full commercial rights. The Free plan covers the entire editor, import, export and the customizer, with no time limit. Pro adds AI generation of editable parametric parts or sculpted meshes across several models, AI-assisted modifications, a monthly credit allowance, bring-your-own-key support, and MCP access for AI agents such as Claude Code, Claude Desktop and Cursor. For education, classroom mode is free for K-12, with pseudonymous student accounts and AI limited to teachers. The interface is available in English, Spanish, German and French, and a desktop edition is offered alongside the web app. No installation, and no account required to get started.

OwlCAD is free to use. The Free plan has no time limit and includes the full parametric editor, import and export in every supported format, the customizer, cloud projects with version history and sharing, and the printability tools. You keep full commercial rights to anything you design, on every plan.

Pro is $12 per month, or $120 per year (two months free). It adds AI generation across several models, Modify-with-AI, AI-assisted customizing, and MCP access for AI agents. Pro includes 20 AI credits a month, which reset monthly. Light parametric generations cost one credit, and detailed mesh models cost a few. One-time credit top-up packs never expire. Pro users can also bring their own AI provider key and generate without spending credits. Payments are handled by Stripe, and you can cancel anytime with no contract.

Classroom features for K-12 schools are free. Districts can add a pooled AI credit budget for teachers; contact OwlCAD for details.
