Manufacturing has spent decades making product information machine-readable. The next frontier is making manufacturing decisions machine-reasonable.

What your estimator knows about a drawing, a set-up and a changeover is not in your ERP. Blake is the first application built on that model. It makes the calculation and its assumptions reviewable, so the estimator can confirm or correct them.

One shared representation of geometry, requirements and factory. A model per process. Each line shows its basis, for review.

How Blake works

Upload

Start from an upload. Additional intake channels are part of the rollout.

Understand

Blake proposes requirements and their links to the model for review. Where the evidence is incomplete or conflicting, the estimator decides.

Confirm

Your engineer confirms or corrects each item in one click. Where Blake is unsure, it asks.

Decide

Blake is being built to support manufacturability, machine choice, cycle time and manufacturing cost, with the estimator reviewing the assumptions behind each one.

How work gets in

Now

You start from an upload: the 2D drawing and the 3D model.

Four steps, reviewable at every stage.

A universal layer

Blake is agnostic: it does not matter which ERP, CAD or CAM you run. Blake can be used on top of the technologies you already use, reads what it needs, and organizes the work around your existing process.

Designed to fit alongside the ERP, CAD and CAM systems a shop already uses.

The first product loop we are building

Hover or focus a block, tab and arrow keys work too, to see what it does today.

The first release focuses on an editable manufacturing-cost calculation for milling and turning.

One model, four things it learns

Blake is the first application of our world model for precision manufacturing. The model learns how geometry, requirements, machines and process decisions come together in a physical part, and Blake uses that to answer the questions an engineer asks before production starts.

Geometry

What the part is: shapes, features and how they relate.

Requirements

What the part must meet: tolerances, finishes, materials, standards.

Machines

What your floor can do: machines, tooling, fixtures and their limits.

Decisions

How process choices turn a drawing into a finished part, and what they cost.

What Blake gives you

Understands the part, not just the file

Blake proposes links between requirements and the geometry they apply to, for the estimator to review.

Designed around your factory

Blake is being built to reflect the machines, tooling and manufacturing history of the shop it works in, not a generic factory.

Each answer shows its basis

Every output points to what it rests on, so your team can check it in seconds instead of redoing it.

Runs where your data is

Designed to run on your premises or in an EU tenant. Customer data stays in the environment you choose.
