Decision engine
Configure the setup
Set the job, holder, and cutting strategy fast. Open advanced fields only when needed.
Free machining tools, downloadable helpers, and a direct path into the FreeCNC marketplace.
Check RPM, tap drill sizes, conversions, setup helpers, AI manufacturing tools, and live shop inventory from one place. FreeCNC is being built as a serious digital workspace for machinists, programmers, students, and growing shops.
Made for machinists, operators, setup techs, students, and people trying to break into CNC.
Useful on the floor, in class, and while building a smarter tool bench for the next move.

Virtual tool bench
Virtual tool bench
The live engine remains the main experience. This bench adds the first curated support layer around it: unlockable tools now and next modules forming behind them.
Unlockable bench tools
Starter packs, templates, and market intelligence that extend the live engine first.
Blueprint interpretation
Print-reading shortcuts, GD&T support, and structured print understanding for faster shop review.
Macro generator
Bolt circles, drilling patterns, repeat templates, and control-ready macro starting points.
Brain live / next modules
Compact retrieval chunks now sit under the prompt desk so unique machine questions can land on tighter evidence lanes faster.
Machining intelligence
Ask about machine codes, alarm paths, and controller issues in plain language for the first promptable troubleshooting layer across Haas, Fanuc, and Siemens manuals.
Open library discoveryPrint workflow
Print ingestion, OCR extraction, feature review, and the path toward CAD-ready handoff.
Jobs
The daily jobs report now lives on its own page so the landing surface can stay focused on the live engine, the unlockable bench, and the marketplace.
Separate report surface
Open the jobs desk for the full location selector, priority openings, current roles, and connector status.
