Software-powered sheet metal and laser cutting with day-scale turnaround.

What they build

The product

Fabworks runs a 14,000 sq ft automated sheet metal shop in Ventura, CA paired with fully custom in-house quoting and shop management software. Customers upload a part, get an instant quote, and receive laser-cut parts in as little as one day.

Why it matters

The thesis

Hardware startups bleed weeks waiting on quotes from sheet metal shops still running on email and PDFs. Fabworks is a concrete example of how software plus modern equipment can revive a 'dying trade' and become the default supplier for the next generation of US hardware companies.
