Drafter

Drafter is a technology company that automates mechanical design, significantly speeding up the creation of part drawings. Users can upload a part and receive professional, standardized drawings in about four minutes, reducing the typical time from an hour. This automation allows engineers to save up to 20 of their workload, which can be equivalent to the effort of an entire engineer focused on paperwork. Each drawing includes compliant Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), enhancing manufacturing accuracy and communication. The platform also features built-in educational tools that help engineers understand Design for Manufacturability (DFM) principles, improving collaboration with machinists. Drafter operates on AWS GovCloud, adhering to stringent data security standards like CMMC and FedRAMP High, making it suitable for customers with high security needs. Their mission is to act as a copilot for hardware teams, increasing efficiency in design workflows and speeding up time to market. Drafter primarily serves engineering teams and hardware developers looking to streamline mechanical design and enhance the quality of their technical drawings.
