Built with the people who use it

Casting Defect is now live and free on the App Store and Google Play. Since launch, foundry workers, technicians and metallurgists have been using it and telling us what works, what doesn’t and what they’d like to see next.

That feedback drives our roadmap. If you use the app, we want to hear from you: what you like, what gets in your way, and which features would make the biggest difference in your foundry.
