Multi-Agent Approach Completed
Completed the move to a multi-agent approach using LangGraph, while continuing Fusion 360 MCP development to test direct CAD automation possibilities.
7 May 2026
LangGraph + Fusion MCP Prototype Successful
Validated the LangGraph multi-agent system and Fusion 360 MCP prototype. The test exposed MCP latency in CAD generation, so Studio Pro development began as a native-AI CAD direction, with the first web version built in an Onshape-style workflow.

Early Studio Pro Agentic CAD Result
Studio Pro is now about 80% similar to Fusion 360 and 90% similar to Onshape, with a built-in agentic AI kernel for CAD. The attached design was generated quickly for $0.09 using the GPT-5.5 model from a single prompt: โDesign a Bed with a glass cup on a table nearby,โ with the Pro agent checking and making edits before presenting the final output shown in the attached image, including material assignment for each component.
