Aurorin CAD

Aurorin CAD is a San Francisco company building a modern mechanical CAD application for engineers and hardware teams, founded in 2026 by Michael Baron and backed by Y Combinator (Winter 2026 batch). Rather than layering on top of the geometry kernels that underpin incumbent tools such as SolidWorks, NX, Creo, CATIA, Fusion 360 and Onshape, Aurorin has written its own parametric, B-Rep driven CAD kernel designed to exploit modern multi-core CPUs and GPUs and to be AI-native from the foundation rather than as a bolted-on assistant. The product ships as a native desktop application for macOS and Windows, pairing conventional direct and parametric editing with an integrated AI agent driven through a chat interface, with the stated goal of collapsing modeling work that traditionally takes twenty minutes into seconds and avoiding the slow rebuilds and cascading feature breakage common to older parametric systems. As of this enrichment pass the company publishes no public API, developer portal, SDK or API documentation; its public surface is a marketing site, a blog, an about/contact page, and careers listings.

human only

Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Aurorin CAD the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Aurorin CAD scores 8.7/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Aurorin CAD

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Aurorin CAD. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

Security Posture 1

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
