Why work with Capvidia?

Yes, our MBD software is first class, but our personal attention to your unique workflows is what matters

There is no one-size-fits-all solution. Every company has bespoke workflows and the transition to model-based workflows is already enough of a challenge. We personally work with the key members of your team to ensure a solution. 

FAQ

Need clarification?

What does Capvidia software do?

Capvidia software helps companies implement true Model-Based Definition (MBD) workflows—including 3D CAD translation, validation, and downstream reuse of CAD + semantic PMI in manufacturing and quality 

How does Capvidia support interoperability across teams and suppliers?

Capvidia emphasizes a single source of truth and sharing interoperable, human- and machine-readable MBD data across teams and partners—working with existing CAD/CAM/CMM systems to enable automation and data-driven insights. 

Which Capvidia product should I start with?

If your goal is to begin the MBD/MBE journey, MBDVidia is positioned as the “first (and easiest) step,” especially for publishing neutral derivatives (QIF/STEP AP242) and enabling downstream use in manufacturing and inspection. 

What type of licenses do you provide?

Capvidia provides annual subscription-based licenses for single-use (node-locked) and multi-user (floating) computers.
