# Fabivo

> Fabivo is a free browser app to design furniture from sheet material, optimize the cut list for real sheets, follow the cuts at the saw and assemble with step-by-step pictures. It works offline, needs no account and has an AI assistant that builds and edits the model.

The app is at https://www.fabivo.app/. The guides below are plain Markdown. The assistant inside the app reads the same files.

## Docs

- [Projects and files](https://www.fabivo.app/docs/projects.md): Save, open and back up projects: autosave in the browser, the .cutlist.json project file, CSV, shared plan links, the installed and Android app, units and language.
- [Model workspace: look, measure, correct](https://www.fabivo.app/docs/model-editor.md): Use the Model workspace by hand: 2D and 3D views, the view cube, selection, the inspector, moving furniture, undo, hide and isolate, the ruler and the phone layout.
- [Building furniture by hand](https://www.fabivo.app/docs/model-tools.md): Build without the assistant: templates, furniture by measurements, shelves, dividers, doors and drawers in an open space, the board tool, sketch, repeat and mirror.
- [Materials, colours, thickness and edge banding](https://www.fabivo.app/docs/materials.md): Materials, colours, board thickness, sheet and solid wood, grain direction and edge banding: how they pass from the model to the cut list and where to check them.
- [Plan: cut list and sheets](https://www.fabivo.app/docs/plan.md): The Plan workspace: make the cut list from the model, sheet sizes and stock, kerf and edge trim, grain, results, sheet count, cuts per sheet and parts that do not fit.
- [Cut and Assemble](https://www.fabivo.app/docs/cut-assemble.md): The Cut workspace (cut-by-cut guide at the saw, marking cuts done) and the Assemble workspace (assembly steps, joining methods, drill settings and the hardware list).
- [Exports, print and files](https://www.fabivo.app/docs/exports.md): Download, print and share: the PDF report, dimensioned drawings, DXF for CNC, GLB for SketchUp, images, CSV, and which file to keep to edit the design later.
- [Fronts and hardware](https://www.fabivo.app/docs/fronts-hardware.md): Doors, drawers and hardware: front gaps and overlays, drawer box sizes, drawer slides and hinges, lift-up, sliding and glass doors, and where the hardware list is.
- [AI assistant](https://www.fabivo.app/docs/assistant.md): The AI assistant panel: photos, sending and queueing messages, Stop, Retry, New chat, saved chats, selection, ratings, limits, privacy and what the assistant can do.

## Tools

- [Remote MCP server](https://www.fabivo.app/api/mcp): the tool `optimize_cutlist` lays out rectangular parts on sheets (sizes in millimetres) and returns the sheets needed, the waste and the position of every piece. Free, no account. Guide: [https://www.fabivo.app/en/cut-list-optimizer-chatgpt](https://www.fabivo.app/en/cut-list-optimizer-chatgpt).
