 AI Build is a London-based company that offers software for additive manufacturing. The company's software enables tier 1 companies operating in the aerospace, automotive, construction, marine, and energy verticals to fully automate the additive manufacturing process from plan to print, improving speed, quality, scalability, and application range across the entire process.
 
 
 The company's platform, AiSync, is designed to fully automate toolpath generation for industrial additive manufacturing using AI and sensor fusion technologies. It monitors, controls, measures, and optimizes the entire 3D printing process. The platform also offers advanced, segmented, conformal, spiral, 45-degree, and non-planar toolpaths with automated adaptive speed control, addressing design compromises due to 3D printing limitations.
 
 
 Key customers and partnerships
 
 
 AI Build operates with a network of 3D printer hardware manufacturer partners, including Hans Weber Maschinenfabrik, Meltio, Evo3D, CEAD, and Massive Dimension.&nbsp;
 
 
 In January 2023, the company partnered with KUKA Systems to develop integrated 3D printing systems named AMCell_ series.
