AI copilot for existing CNC machines

Turn every CNC into an intelligent machinist

InnovateAI automates CNC programming and setup for the machines you already own. Generate toolpaths, setup sheets, and proven programs in minutes, not hours.

  • Built for small and mid sized shops that need speed, not more overhead
  • Works with your existing CNC machines, controllers, and workflows
  • Learns from every job to improve feeds, speeds, and strategies over time

What InnovateAI does for your CNC shop

One brain for programming, setup, and continuous improvement across all your machines.

Automatic CNC programming

Upload a drawing or 3D model. The AI proposes operations, toolpaths, feeds, and speeds tailored to your machine and tooling.

Setup co pilot

Clear setup sheets, fixture suggestions, and probing routines so newer operators can run jobs with confidence.

Controller ready programs

Generates machine specific G code with safety checks and simulation so you send proven programs to the floor.

Camera guided setup

We set up a camera at the machine to guide the worker during setup and check every step in real time so tools, fixtures, and work offsets are correct before the job runs.

How the AI copilot fits into your workflow

InnovateAI plugs into the steps you already follow in your shop. No need to replace machines or throw out your CAM.

1

Upload the job

Start with a drawing, 3D model, or repeat job. Add material, quantity, and machine you want to run it on.

2

AI generates the plan

The AI selects tools, operations, and strategies based on your machine, tooling library, and past jobs.

3

Review and tweak

Your programmer or lead machinist reviews toolpaths, makes changes if needed, and approves the job.

4

Send to machine and run

Export controller ready code and setup sheets. The operator follows clear steps and reports back real results.

For shop owners and leads

Get jobs through the shop faster without burning out your senior machinists. Shorten quoting time, cut rework, and make it easier to say yes to more complex parts.

  • Less time bottlenecked on one programmer
  • More predictable cycle times and margins
  • Knowledge stays in the shop even when people move on

For programmers and machinists

InnovateAI is a helper, not a replacement. It handles the boring work and keeps the details consistent, so you can focus on tricky parts and better strategies.

  • Faster first versions of toolpaths and setup sheets
  • Standardized templates for similar parts and families
  • Suggestions based on what worked in past jobs, not guesswork

Built for any CNC operation

InnovateAI works with the CNC machines already on your floor and integrates into the processes your team follows every day. Whether you run one machine or an entire production facility, our AI enhances programming, setup, and verification with real-time intelligence.

Machine types

Vertical mills, lathes, routers

Supported workflow

Prototype & production

Compatibility

Most major controllers & CAM

We are looking to connect with CNC shops that:

  • Want to explore how AI can improve programming, setup, and part consistency
  • Run real production jobs and are open to testing new technology in a structured, low-risk way
  • Have at least one person familiar with CNC programming or machine setup
  • Are focused on reducing programming time, improving repeatability, and preventing setup mistakes
