Tools Reference
Complete documentation for every 3D and 2D tool in PartWork AI.
How Tools Work
Every tool in PartWork AI is powered by AI. When you use a tool, it automatically generates a prompt based on your inputs and selections. You get the precision of traditional CAD tools with the intelligence of AI-powered geometry generation.
Tools + Natural Language
You can always accomplish the same result by typing a natural language command. Tools are convenient shortcuts that ensure consistent, precise inputs.
3D Tools
These tools modify 3D geometry — adding material, removing material, or transforming shapes.
