# Partvo > Partvo is developing AI-assisted CAD and a print-and-ship service for people and AI agents. Operated by S&A CONSULTING EAP LLC. Status updated 2026-09-05. ## Available now - [Free MIT-licensed idea-to-part skill](https://github.com/saconsultingaepllc-tech/partvo-idea-to-part): measurement questions, material decisions, design review and print preparation. Not a hosted CAD engine or ordering connector. - [Complete skill ZIP](https://partvo.com/downloads/partvo-idea-to-part.zip) ## Public service status The hosted studio, public REST API, remote MCP server, verified CAD import and managed printing are in development. No public MCP connection URL, live manufacturing quotes or print-order placement are available. A completed physical print-and-ship journey has not been verified. CAD creation and modification in Partvo workflows use Astra. ## Documentation - [MCP 3D printing](https://partvo.com/mcp-3d-printing): planned design → review → quote → approved order → delivery workflow; distinct from controlling a printer you own. - [Developers](https://partvo.com/developers): availability, skill installation, planned REST/MCP access and hosted credit pricing. - [Agent workflows](https://partvo.com/for-agents): human studio, external agent with hosted Astra, and external Astra with the free skill. - [Design brief](https://partvo.com/design-brief): dimensions, fit, loads and material questions. - [Disclaimer](https://partvo.com/disclaimer): Partvo can make mistakes. Always verify results. ## Planned purchasing controls Hosted design starts at $1.98 for 5 million credits, covering $1 of Astra provider usage; public checkout is not open. Printing is separate. Production requires an exact approved artifact, selected quote, quantity, destination and confirmed payment or bounded spending mandate. Material changes and requotes require renewed approval. Manufacturing options remain subject to qualification.
