Half a Lifetime in CAD. One Mission: Kill the Tedium.

Founder

I have been using CAD since 2011. Throughout that time, one problem never went away: documentation. It is tedious, time consuming, and it pulls engineers away from actual engineering.

About a decade ago, I began teaching myself to code to automate the work nobody wanted to do. Those scripts evolved into internal tools. Over time, they saved thousands of hours for me and the teams I worked with.

All of that accumulated experience went into cadop.io, and continues to shape it.

What started as small automation scripts is now a cloud-first platform that converts a single STEP file into complete, export-ready documentation. Bills of materials, technical specifications, interactive 3D viewers, and AR-ready outputs. Generated in minutes instead of hours.

cadop.io is the result of years spent solving this problem manually. What you see today is the foundation. AI-driven CAD automation & documentation is the next phase.

Years of Work, One Platform

Cloud-Based Assembly Analysis

Complex CATIA automation: cloud-connected assembly analysis algorithms via .NET that detect tree structures, BOM parameters, and components — then generate images for any part or assembly automatically.

Early Access Launch

cadop.io opens to early adopters — years of automation knowledge packaged into one platform.

What We Believe In

Automation First

If it can be automated, it should be. We eliminate tedious manual work so engineers can focus on what matters.

Precision Matters

Every dimension, every BOM entry comes directly from CAD data. No estimates, no guessing, no manual entry errors.

Built for Teams

From solo engineers to enterprise teams. Share documentation with anyone—no CAD licenses, no barriers.

Engineer-Led

Built by engineers who lived the pain. Every feature solves a real problem we faced ourselves.
