we making parts now :) well we have been but now we are open for you all trying it!

[Zoo @zoodotdev]

We built the software. Now we’re machining the parts.

Zoo’s manufacturing beta is open: custom CNC-machined aluminum parts, made in our own shop.

Have a part in mind? Submit it for consideration:

I will say the anodized aluminum are really gorgeous, the black is like a Tom Ford black if you are into that thing, and if you bead blast it too looks like Apple

We've been extending Zoo's platform into toolpathing and CNC operations. Today, we bring our CNC service from a private alpha to a public beta.

For the last year we've been developing our agentic CAM platform, running on our own machines. Zoo's CAM mirrors our CAD platform, a hybrid implementation where both traditional edits and agentic edits are built on top of our scripting language, KCL.

Toolpaths are defined in KCL, dynamically linked to surfaces, bodies, and any other parameters. This is alongside the CAD definition in KCL, allowing a common source of truth both for designers and agentic workflows.

Our CNC service's private alpha involved building automations on top of our CAM workflows to allow quick turn, high mix manufacturing in our prototype Factory 1.0., which will expand into Factory 2.0 Q1 2027.

With our public beta, anyone can upload parts to our portal, which are reviewed by our auto-quoter and agentic toolpathing. For now we're manually reviewing those to verify their performance and accuracy before releasing quotes to customers.

Once we find the auto-quoter and agentic toolpathing to be sufficiently accurate and comprehensive, we will stop manual review and automatically release quotes to customers.

These quotes will include agentically generated design-for-manufacturability feedback, based on driving factors for machine run time, setup cost, and more. Our goal is context-aware design change recommendations to help our customers achieve faster/cheaper manufacturing.

We will also be releasing this capability via Zookeeper, where you will be able to receive/accept quotes within your prompt workflows, and via our API for third part integration.

Our CAM platform will be released publicly as an extension to our GUIs, KCL, and APIs next year.

The only way to train an industrial superintelligence is to combine CAD, CAM, analysis, and more into one design-to-production platform. We do that today.

@hurrycane Fuck I should have done that

@IngressLog Not for 10G at a random point in the future

[Jessie Frazelle @jessfraz]

@Dovid I can imagine

[Jessie Frazelle @jessfraz]

@dusangran Yep

[Jessie Frazelle @jessfraz]

@maria_fibonacci @rakyll Love you both!!!

[Jessie Frazelle @jessfraz]

@Jenna_Bryant lol yes

[Jessie Frazelle @jessfraz]

@Ronanchamberss i feel like this is @pmarca taste

[Jessie Frazelle @jessfraz]

@evanphx agree

[em m0shouris @emm0sh]

why solidworks has gotten worse over time:

[Jessie Frazelle @jessfraz]

Recorded a four hour podcast lol thoughts and prayers for those who make it thru the whole thing 😂

this is jessie frazelle, CEO of zoo and co-founder of oxide computer company

we discuss building a CAD kernel from scratch, software engineers vs developers, GPUs and CAD, AI written code, candor, and why the best engineers are opinionated

@callumj Yupppp

[Jessie Frazelle @jessfraz]

@petrusenko_max Why would I have it be writing for me? I hate that

[Jessie Frazelle @jessfraz]

instead of giving your agents / llm whatever a soul.md, tell it to never use first person, that it is an llm, not an "i"

its amazing, never going back

[Jessie Frazelle @jessfraz]

@DanielLenton1 Accurate but also more like the bug is X
