Freeform

Freeform is revolutionizing the manufacturing industry with its AI-native manufacturing system, designed to simplify and accelerate production processes. Founded by a team of former SpaceX engineers, Freeform has developed a unique network of autonomous factories that can sense, learn, predict, and control metal formation in real-time. This innovative approach allows for the production of mission-critical parts at an industrial scale, overcoming the limitations of traditional manufacturing methods.

At the core of Freeform's technology is a breakthrough telemetry system that utilizes high-speed cameras and machine learning to monitor the metal printing process. This system captures data at microsecond intervals, enabling instant adjustments to the laser settings to ensure precision and quality in every part produced. With the integration of 18 high-power lasers operating continuously, Freeform's manufacturing capabilities far exceed those of conventional printers, which typically struggle with downtime and low throughput.

Freeform's commitment to innovation is evident in its proprietary Physical AI platform, which combines custom algorithms, simulations, and real-time sensor data to enhance print capabilities continuously. This has allowed Freeform to scale its production from fewer than 100 parts in 2024 to tens of thousands in 2025, supplying leading-edge programs with parts that cannot be manufactured through traditional means. Looking ahead, the company plans to unveil its next-generation factory system, Skyfall, which will further increase production capacity and broaden material offerings.

By treating manufacturing as a unified system rather than a collection of disconnected tools, Freeform is unlocking new classes of products and enabling faster iteration and higher yields. The company offers a scalable, turnkey service that transforms customer ideas into production-ready products, all under one roof. With significant investments and a focus on continuous improvement, Freeform is poised to lead the future of manufacturing.
