Every engineer has lost a day hunting for the right bolt. Leo AI wants that day back.
Built by an engineer who got tired of searching.
Maor Farid trained as a mechanical engineer and once spent months on a single, maddening task: finding the right bolts and ball bearings in printed books and PDF files.
That frustration pushed Maor into AI, through research at MIT, and eventually back to the problem. With co-founder Moti Moravia, Maor set out to fix the mess of engineering information. Before writing a line of code, they interviewed more than 900 mechanical engineers, from juniors to VPs, about the tasks that ate their weeks.
Leo launched in 2023, trained to read 3D CAD instead of just text. By 2025 it had raised $9.7 million, and SolidWorks founder Jon Hirschtick had joined Leo's community of engineers.
Engineering knowledge is scattered across PDFs, PLM systems and people's heads.
Finding a part, checking a design or answering a standards question means digging through catalogs, old projects and data sheets. General AI tools read text, but a mechanical design lives in 3D geometry.
01
Ask like an engineer
Leo answers engineering questions from the company's own PLM data and 1M+ vetted sources, with a citation behind every answer.
02
Find and check
It searches 120M+ vendor parts in plain language and reviews designs for errors, manufacturability and tolerance issues.
03
Generate CAD
It creates and edits parametric CAD models from text, images and drawings, across SolidWorks, Creo, NX, Onshape and more.

Practical next steps, fast.
In October 2024, we gave Jhosep Farfan of Leo AI practical advice and clear next steps to move a project forward, with written feedback afterward.
“Very good engagement, he provided great practical advice & steps to continue my project in an effective way and sent me great feedback. I really recommend him.”
— Jhosep Farfan, Leo AI
