From Lid Cleaners to Everything

I built this because I needed it.

At Growbotics I designed 5+ production machines. A single machine took 3 days in Fusion 360. I described that same lid-cleaning system to an early prototype of OpenFrame. It designed the complete assembly in 30 minutes.

The crane

This crane is a 3-axis gantry — same kinematics as a CNC router. That’s when it clicked. Every machine I built uses the same language.

Same language, any physical thing

Three machines I designed. The architecture doesn’t know the difference.

What's real today

• 275 parts — real McMaster-Carr catalog, STEP → GLB pipeline
• 20 port types — Shaft, Bore, Rail, Carriage, Face, BoltCircle, etc.
• Multi-model compose — Sonnet reasoning, Haiku parallelization, vision critique
• Vision-in-the-loop — 13-point quality jump, $0.015, automatic
• 3 execution surfaces — Studio, MCP (Cursor), headless API
• Event-sourced undo — 76 lines, full collaborative editing

What's not

No kinematics simulation. No FEA. No G-code. No wiring diagrams. No domain beyond mechanical assembly. But the architecture doesn't care.

The market

TAM $10.8B. SAM 5M active users. SOM 200K serious builders. 1% of SOM = $1.2M ARR at $49/mo.
