Fast, loss‑less conversion between CATIA, SOLIDWORKS, NX, Creo, STEP, IGES and more, all without opening the native CAD app.
AI‑driven geometry and metadata checks guarantee design intent survives translation by detecting unit mismatches, missing features, and assembly drift.
Automatic stitching and gap‑filling repairs imperfect B‑Rep models before they hit the shop floor or simulation pipeline.
Founded in 2025 by two Stanford students, CADence exists to eliminate the friction of multi‑CAD collaboration. Our platform combines state‑of‑the‑art geometry kernels with large language models to iteratively refine each translation until it is truly indistinguishable from the original. Whether you’re a Tier‑1 supplier, a contract manufacturer, or a robotics startup, CADence keeps your digital thread intact across every tool in your stack.
CTO
Ethan, co-founder and CTO of CADence, became obsessed with building tools that fix broken technical workflows while researching AI safety and infrastructure at Stanford's AI Lab. He realized how AI could be applied to everyday bottlenecks that slow down engineers. At CADence, he’s focused on bringing AI-powered structure and intelligence to CAD conversion, helping engineers spend less time fixing files and more time solving real design problems.

CEO
Jonathan, co-founder and CEO of CADence, spent two years working at an aviation engineering firm where he saw firsthand how much time and money were lost due to broken CAD conversions between suppliers and OEMs. Watching engineers manually fix models and rebuild parts just to meet formatting or compliance requirements sparked the idea for a better solution. At CADence, he’s building the platform he wishes his team had.
