The first AI engine trained only on manufacturing.
Not the open web — twelve years of real production data. Foreman reads a part the way a veteran production engineer would, catches what won't build, proposes the fix, and re-quotes in seconds.
Not a wrapper on someone else's model.
Foreman is not a general chatbot with a manufacturing prompt bolted on. It was trained from scratch, on manufacturing and nothing else — so it understands the nuances of every single aspect of making a real, physical part.
An open-web LLM fed a system prompt about machining. It has read about manufacturing. It has never made anything.
Built from scratch on 12 years of our own production data — parts we quoted, machined, inspected, and shipped. It has made things. Millions of them.
How alloys, resins and polymers behave — machinability, warp, shrink, and how finishes move a dimension.
Toolpaths, workholding, setups and cycle time — what a machine can actually reach, and at what cost.
How parts go together — clearance, transition and interference fits, and the tolerance stack-up across an assembly.
Design-for-manufacturability rules for every process — and, just as important, when to break them.
First-article inspection, CMM and gauge data, functional testing — what passes, what fails, and why.
The quality discipline around every shipment — trained on the calls made by real inspectors and engineers.
Reads the part. Flags the problem. Proposes the fix.
Reads geometry, materials and process — across every method — against real production data. It knows a 6 mm tool from a 3 mm one, and what each leaves behind.
Surfaces what won't manufacture — thin walls, deep pockets, sharp internal corners, unsupported overhangs — before you order, while a change still costs nothing.
Proposes the specific change — take that wall to 1.2 mm, add a 1° draft — re-quotes in seconds, and gets out of the way. You approve.
It talks like the engineer down the hall.
Foreman rides along with every quote — plain language, specific numbers, no jargon wall. The same amber call-outs on the web, in the dashboard, and in your pocket on iOS.

Foreman spans CNC and sheet metal, injection molding, extrusion and composites, with the materials science underneath. Today it prices what OpusFab makes; it already understands the rest.
