Describe a part.
Get one you can make.
Schemix turns a plain-language description into designed, validated, manufacture-ready CAD — and shows you every assumption it made on the way, so you can correct it before it builds on it.
Mechanical parts today. Enclosures, boards and assemblies are on the same spine, behind a plugin seam.
Prompt
“A wall-mounted bracket for a 3.5-inch external hard drive. Screws into a stud with two #8 screws, the drive slides in from the top, PETG, has to survive being knocked.”
Checks
- Wall thickness ≥ 2.4 mm at every rib
- #8 screw clearance and countersink
- Drive envelope 101.6 × 26.1 × 147 mm fits
- Drop from 1 m: peak stress under yield

Checkpoints, not surprises
Before it builds on an assumption — a hole size, a material, a load — it stops and shows you. Correct it there, not three stages later.
Validated, by name
Every design passes named blocking checks before it is offered. A check that could not run is not a pass, and the report says which.
Parametric all the way down
You get the source, not just the mesh. Change a dimension, re-run, and the checks run again on the new part.
Effort scales search, never safety
Draft or exhaustive, the same blocking checks run and the same requests are refused. The dial changes how hard it looks, not what it skips.
How it works
One spine. Real geometry. Named checks.
The pipeline is the same for every kind of thing; what a “wall thickness” means lives in a domain plugin. The geometry itself is built by a real CAD kernel in a sandbox, and re-imported and measured before anything is reported.

Describe
Say what it is for, what it holds, what it attaches to. Attach a photo or a link if you have one.

Steer
It extracts a spec and pauses. Fix a dimension, pick a material, answer what it could not infer.

A bracket, a mount, a spacer, an enclosure lid. Describe it the way you would to a machinist.
