CADAM, an innovative open-source web application, transforms text or image inputs into parametric 3D CAD models with real-time adjustable sliders, all running in-browser via OpenSCAD compiled to WebAssembly. By combining AI agents for conversational modeling with deterministic regex updates for quick tweaks, it dramatically lowers the barrier to complex CAD workflows. This tool not only accelerates prototyping but also opens new possibilities for developers and designers in additive manufacturing and digital fabrication.
