The founders of GrabCAD, Hardi Meybaum and Indrek Narusk previously ran a product development company, where they realized how much of engineers' time is wasted on simple, repetitive and often unnecessary tasks and how their work processes could be optimized by developing a unified CAD services marketplace, cross-platform CAD library and engineering community. This led them to start GrabCAD in 2009. The company is based in Tallinn, Estonia.
