Frequently Asked Questions

General

What is Fabrio?

Fabrio is a learning platform that teaches computer-aided design and gives learners real-time feedback!

Why is Fabrio great?

The main value of Fabrio comes from the ability for students to work asynchronously and get real-time feedback on their work instead of going to office hours or waiting for an in-person session. Our independent research and extensive work with universities showed that students could progress roughly 30% faster using Fabrio than traditional teaching methods.

How does Fabrio save time for Educators?

Fabrio is great for educators as it helps save them time when creating learning material, makes it easier to monitor student progress, and reduces their marking/grading workload.

Can I get a free trial or a demo of Fabrio?

Yes, please get in touch with us here.

CAD Software Integration

Which Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Software does Fabrio work with?

Fabrio currently only works with Autodesk Fusion. If you want us to work with other software, tell us here!

How Does Fabrio Integrate with Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Software?

Fabrio has an add-in for Fusion that can be downloaded from the Autodesk App Store. Once downloaded, it can be used in conjunction with our courses.
Whenever you see the ‘Check’ Icon within a course you can use the add-in!

Are there any specific system requirements for running Fabrio’s software?

Nope! As long as you have access to an internet browser and Fusion installed you are good to go!.

Does Fabrio work with the online version of Fusion?

You can still follow our courses on Fabrio. However, the add-in will not work as Autodesk doesn’t allow third-party add-ins on the online version of Fusion.

How often does Fabrio update its courses and software compatibility?

We know Autodesk Fusion updates a lot! Don’t worry though, we are on top of it, checking for updates each day! For the courses, we update them roughly every 6 months, but if there’s been an important UI change to Fusion, we’ll make sure we update it ASAP!

Do I need to be worried about Autodesk Fusion updating?

Not at all! As we mentioned above, we’re on top of everything from our end, so as long as you’re okay with Fusion updating on your computer, there’s nothing extra to worry about.
