Genworks GDL

Genworks GDL is a declarative language for knowledge-based engineering—refined since 1997, built on ANSI Common Lisp for multi-generational stability, and designed to expose symbolic 3D design as AI-callable tools.representing complex hierarchical systems, including three-dimensional geometric models, the language framework itself is domain-independent and can be used to achieve a wide range of results.

Genworks offers three tiers to match your needs: open-source Gendl for research and education, Professional Edition for development, and Enterprise Edition for production deployment.programming language, a parametric CAD system, a web application server, and a Knowledge-management system.

Gendl (Open Source)

Editions

Professional Edition

For early-stage application development, prototyping, and additional development seats. Includes AGPL exception for closed-source development, commercial support from Genworks, and Franz Allegro CL foundation (continuous since 1984). Note: For development only—runtime deployment requires Enterprise Edition.

Enterprise Edition

For production deployment, runtime distribution, and mission-critical applications. Includes SMLib NURBS kernel (pre-NVIDIA, long-renowned), HarmonyWare CAD I/O integration (STEP/IGES), support continuity agreements with Franz Inc, and priority enterprise support. Suitable for Fortune 500 production deployments—powering mission-critical applications since 2002.

  • Professional Edition — For development and prototyping
  • Enterprise Edition — For deployment and runtime distribution
