Mining CAD, built by a mining engineer
Sarastar is built by Lyon Momple, a mining engineer who turned to software to fix the tools engineers use every day.
Built from first-hand frustration
Slow, clunky, outdated software, on work that deserves better.
Lyon designs and builds Sarastar end to end, from the rendering engine to licensing and updates. Alpha testers talk directly to the person who writes the code.

How we decide what matters
01
The mining work comes first
Every tool is shaped around the design and analysis mining engineers do every day.
02
Performance is designed in
Large mine models should never make an engineer wait, so speed is built into the foundations.
03
Engineers own the workflow
Node graphs let engineers build, adapt and share their own workflows instead of waiting for a feature.
From the first idea in 2022 to the alpha and what comes next, the roadmap keeps the whole story.
