Talk to CADWiz about an idea, invention, replacement part, product, or piece of art you have been imagining. Describe it—or show CADWiz a sketch, photograph, drawing, patent, or technical specification.
Approximately half of the group will have little or no CAD experience. We are also seeking FreeCAD users, engineers, professional CAD designers, Blender modelers, mesh specialists, artists, and 3D-printing users.
Submitting this form is an application, not automatic acceptance. Most participants should expect to contribute approximately 30–60 minutes per week for four weeks.
Which group would you like to join?
October FreeCAD Beta
November Blender Beta — coming November
Choose either, or both. Testers in both groups are our priority testers . The Blender addon is a sibling product, not a sequel: you do not need CADWiz for FreeCAD to join the Blender beta, or the other way round.

The intelligence part
To use the beta’s full intelligence, you’ll need an account with OpenAI or Anthropic (Claude) , connected through something called an API.
Which AI account will you use?
OpenAI — Preferred. This is the only option that supports live voice conversation — you talk to the Wiz and it talks right back, like a phone call. Everything else works great too.
Anthropic (Claude). Full CADWiz brainpower, same great results. Voice works in push-to-talk mode: hold the talk key, speak, release, and the Wiz answers. Like a walkie-talkie.
Not sure yet. Totally fine — we'll help you pick during setup.
I understand the beta requires about $10 of AI credits with OpenAI or Anthropic, and I am willing to set that up (we will show you how, step by step).
5. What we ask of you
I agree to use CADWiz during the beta and share honest feedback — what works well and what does not. Short comments are fine. This is the whole point of a beta. Required.
Can you participate for the full four weeks?
Yes
Probably
No
