AI tools for better 3D production.
LdeCake is building practical AI-assisted tools for makers and small 3D-printing workflows — from job estimation and quoting to production planning and technical assistance.
Prototype direction: turn production inputs into clearer estimates, plans and actionable guidance.
From model to production, with less guesswork.
3D-printing work often combines scattered settings, material costs, machine time and manual decisions. LdeCake explores how Claude can help structure that workflow into useful, explainable actions.
Smart quoting
Estimate material, machine time and production cost from a consistent set of job inputs.
Production copilot
Turn print requirements into checklists, setup suggestions and troubleshooting guidance.
Workflow automation
Build toward API-powered tools that connect quoting, job preparation and production notes.
Prototype: quick job estimator
A simple first MVP. It demonstrates the workflow before Claude-powered reasoning is connected on the backend.
Next step with Claude
The planned Claude API layer will interpret job requirements, flag missing inputs, explain assumptions, produce production notes and help troubleshoot failed prints.
This prototype is an early-stage demonstration, not a commercial quotation system.
Building with Claude
LdeCake is being developed as a bootstrapped early-stage project. Claude is planned as the reasoning layer for natural-language job intake, production guidance, troubleshooting and structured workflow automation.
