Question 1

What is zCAD AI?

Accepted Answer

zCAD AI is a prompt-to-CAD tool at zcad.ai that generates editable parametric B-rep geometry—parts, assemblies, mates—with a browser editor and STEP export.

Question 2

Does zCAD AI export STEP files?

Accepted Answer

Yes—STEP export is a headline feature, so generated parts open directly in SolidWorks, Fusion, Onshape, and CAM workflows.

Question 3

Is zCAD AI output a mesh or real CAD?

Accepted Answer

Real parametric B-rep CAD: faces, edges, and features you can select and modify, not a triangulated mesh approximation.

Question 4

Can zCAD AI replace a mechanical engineer?

Accepted Answer

No—treat output as a fast first draft. Tolerance-critical features and complex assemblies still need engineering review.
