Turn photos and spoken measurements into a CAD drawing

A Hermes user built a workflow for his workshop with FreeCAD and Hermes Agent. He takes photos of a part and says the key dimensions out loud. The agent then produces a parametric drawing and a model of the part, ready to use in CAD. He says he uses this in the shop, and attaches a short video. Check the original, but the post does not show how accurate the drawings are, or how much he has to correct afterwards.

How to do it

  1. Paste the prompt into the tool, and replace the text in brackets with your own.
  2. Read the answer through. Do not send, delete or publish anything until you have seen it yourself.
  3. Check the original before you trust a figure, a name or a date.

Try it with Hermes

Create a parametric drawing and a 3D model in [CAD program] of [part] from the photos in [folder]. I will give you the critical dimensions out loud: [dimensions]. Use only the dimensions I give you, and mark anything you estimated from the photos. Show me a list of dimensions and assumptions before you build the model. You are done when the drawing and model are saved in [folder] and every dimension can be changed as a parameter.

  • Summarise new Messenger leads and ask me what to reply

    A consultant who sets up Hermes for small businesses in France shares examples from his clients. At an engine cleaning shop, Hermes reads new Facebook Messenger leads every 15 minutes, sums each one up and asks the owner what to reply. Other owners dictate quotes straight into their CRM or get a morning briefing. He reports about 8,000 scheduled runs so far. Check the original, but the post does not show the actual setup.

  • Answer phone enquiries and pass the details on automatically

    An automation builder made a voice agent with ElevenLabs and n8n that handles incoming enquiries for a property company. The agent works out what the caller needs, asks for budget and location and passes the answers into an automated workflow. He writes that property firms can lose clients simply because nobody answers the phone. Check the original. The post is a practice project he is adding to his portfolio, and the recording lacks the agent's voice.

  • Screen job applicants with Grok

    MarcEBossu hired a tile technician in under a week after an agent built on Grok had read all 45 applications and picked 15. A voice agent built with ElevenLabs and Twilio called the 15 for a first interview with the same questions.
