Quick Start Guide

Create your first 3D part in seconds. Use familiar CAD tools or natural language — AI handles the geometry either way.

How PartWork AI Works

Every operation in PartWork AI is powered by AI. You have two ways to work:

CAD Tools

Use familiar tools like Sketch, Extrude, Fillet, and Hole. The tools automatically generate AI prompts — you just use the interface.

Natural Language

Type what you want in plain English. Great for complex requests or when you want to describe the end result.

Same AI, Different Interface

Both approaches use the same AI engine. Tools are convenient for common operations; natural language is powerful for anything you can describe.

Create Your First Part

Let's create a simple mounting bracket. We'll show both approaches.

Option A: Using Tools

1

Open PartWork AI

Go to studio.partwork.ai and sign in or continue as a guest.

2

Click the Sketch tool

Draw a rectangle 3" x 2". The sketch tool lets you draw profiles that will become 3D shapes.

3

Click Extrude

Select your sketch and extrude it 0.25". You now have a 3D plate.

4

Click the Hole tool

Add two 0.25" holes near the corners. Click to place them on the top face.

5

Click Fillet

Select edges and apply 0.125" fillets to round them.

Option B: Using Natural Language

Or just type this in the chat:

Create a 3 x 2 x 0.25 inch rectangular plate with two 0.25 inch holes near the corners and 0.125 inch fillets on all edges

Same result, one sentence. The AI generates everything at once.

Tips for Better Results

Be specific with dimensions

Whether using tools or text, exact dimensions give exact results. Include units (inches, mm).

One thing at a time

Make changes incrementally. Add one feature, check it, then add the next.

Mix and match

Use tools for precise placement, then natural language for complex modifications.

Select and describe

Click a face to select it, then describe what you want: "add a hole here".
