Get paid to let AI learn from your shop’s old CAD and CAM files
Every job your shop runs leaves files behind. Part models, drawings, CAM programs, G-code and setup sheets. Over the years, they pile up on your server and old computers. AI companies building tools for manufacturing will pay for a copy of them. You keep the originals, and you choose what to share.
Built for machine shops, fab shops and manufacturers
If your shop programs parts on a computer, you likely have years of valuable files sitting on a server or old PCs.
You’re the owner, founder, CEO or a key decision maker
Your shop runs CNC machines, lasers, press brakes or other programmed equipment
You have a few years or more of saved CAD, CAM or G-code files
Your shop is still open and operating today
Most shops that make parts qualify
The files your shop already made
What happens to your files
Your files are only used for one thing: teaching AI how parts get designed and made. They’re not used to copy your shop or go after your customers. Everything is covered by a written agreement.
You’re not giving anything away. You’re getting paid for a copy of work your shop already did.
How your files are kept safe
- You choose which files to share
- Customer names and part numbers can be taken out
- Files covered by a customer NDA can be left out
- Defense and export-controlled work is never included
- Nothing is ever posted or shared publicly
- Your files still belong to you
What makes your files worth more
- How many years of files you have
- Having the model, the CAM program and the G-code for the same part
- How many different parts and materials you’ve run
- How organized the files are (we’ll help you check)
Years of files you’ll never open again
Most shops have years of old jobs they’ll never run again. Here’s why it makes sense to get paid for them.
Get paid for files you already have
Old models, programs and setup sheets are sitting on your server. Now they can earn you money.
Help build better AI for manufacturing
Real programs from real shops make AI tools better at quoting, programming and making parts.
Your shop keeps running like normal
No new work for your team and no machine downtime. The AI company handles the setup, the cleanup and the transfer.
