Zoo, a company that creates infrastructure for hardware design, announced the launch of Zoo Design Studio, a unified CAD suite for engineering and manufacturing companies of all sizes. Included in Zoo Design Studio is Text-to-CAD, a feature that enables design engineers to leverage the power of generative AI to create complex designs in seconds. The new service is available via subscription, starting from free and with advanced features included in paid tiers, from $99 per month.
Zoo Design Studio allows customers to flexibly weave edits to their designs between traditional point-and-click interactions, programmatic interactions with code, and text prompt interactions via Text-to-CAD. This allows the customer to choose any of these three approaches within one common environment. Zoo Design Studio is built using their proprietary geometry engine, which is the world’s first to be GPU-based, cloud-implemented, API-accessible, and dynamically scalable.
“Zoo Design Studio represents the result of two years of intensive technical development, shaped by feedback from 300,000 early users and powered by over 2 million hours of geometry engine computation, resulting in more than 1 million unique Text-to-CAD designs,” said Jessie Frazelle, CEO and Co-Founder. “We’re thrilled to bring these tools to enterprise customers. When we launched our open alpha last year, it was the first CAD application to blend traditional point-and-click interfaces with modern, automated workflows. Now, with Text-to-CAD, we’re pushing that innovation even further.”

“The real-world productivity gains we’ve already seen from Text-to-CAD have been incredible,” said Jordan Noone, Executive Chairman and Co-Founder. “Internal tests have shown our generative AI can deliver up to 95% of time savings for designing certain complex parts in CAD, just by typing in a description of what you want our system to create.”
Zoo will continue to support the growth of customers building solutions on top of its APIs—the KittyCAD Design API and ML-ephant Machine Learning API, allowing anyone to build their own custom applications. These APIs allow companies or developers to bring the power of Zoo Design Studio to any custom application they can build themselves.
