NDEVR QUAIL is a new kind of 3D design tool that combines AI-assisted creation, professional file support, project collaboration, and 3D printing in one application.
Instead of starting with a blank CAD workspace, you can describe what you want:
“Make a parametric pen holder with three angled slots.”
QUAIL turns that idea into a real 3D model you can view, edit, share, export, save, or print.
QUAIL lets you create and modify models through natural language. You can ask for a new object, refine an existing design, attach reference images, or use screenshots of the model to help the AI understand what needs to change.
You can say things like:
“Make the legs taller.”
“Round the back corners.”
“Add three mounting holes.”
“Make this easier to 3D print.”
The goal is not just to generate a one-time model, but to help you build and improve the design through conversation.
QUAIL is built around real CAD and 3D file workflows. AI-generated models are not trapped in a toy previewer or a temporary web demo. They become actual design objects that can be edited, measured, exported, and prepared for manufacturing.
QUAIL supports common 3D and CAD formats, including:
.scad, .stl, .obj, .gltf, .glb, .fbx, .dxf, .dwg, .e57, .las, .laz, .shp, .pdf, images, and NDEVR’s native .ndv project format.
That means you can bring in existing files, generate new geometry, combine sources, and keep working in one environment.
QUAIL includes a full 3D print pipeline. Once your model is ready, you can select a printer profile, choose material and slicing settings, preview the toolpath, and generate G-code.
The print system supports real printer profiles, slicer backends, calibration generators, and toolpath visualization, so you can move from idea to printable object without jumping between multiple applications.
QUAIL is built on NDEVR’s OWL project system, allowing files, models, and revisions to move between devices. A design can start on one machine, be refined on another, and be prepared for printing elsewhere.
One account connects project storage, AI access, and NDEVR services.
