[Orville] Generate complex multi-component CAD designs from text

This is not a CAD Co-Pilot. This is a one shot AI Text to CAD power tool. Try it now: ballistalabs.ai Today we're launching Orville: your high-power CAD designer that delivers results in each chat. Just tell it what you want, what problem you're trying to solve, and it cooks. While you focus on other tasks, Orville generates real, manufacturable STEP files. Imagined something different? Just respond to Orville and it handles the revisions. My cofounder and I actually pivoted to build this. We started out building a general engineering AI but quickly realized that engineering advice is useless without the actual geometry to build, test, and manufacture. The problem was that no existing tool could reliably make complex CAD components without a human constantly in the loop. We didn't want a tool we had to micromanage. We wanted to one-shot complex parts. So we built Orville. It handles geometry far more complex than competing tools with no hand-holding. It’s not perfect yet. It usually takes 2 to 3 chats to get a manufacture-ready component, but you don't need a pre-designed spec or step-by-step instructions. It takes your need and delivers. This is where mechanical design is headed. Just look at software. "Vibe Coding" has already revolutionized that industry. In the Winter '25 Y Combinator batch, a quarter of the startups reportedly have 95% AI-generated codebases. It is undeniable that AI is changing how quick-moving teams work, and it's not just for prototypes. CAD is following that same path. It is inevitable. Jump onboard and be one of the first adopters of the future of mechanical design. Try Orville today: ballistalabs.ai
