Our AI Agent
The Weld Space is an education technology start-up exploring new ways to help people learn welding skills.
We've developed an AI-powered Learning Tool especially for welding that works alongside our introduction to welding online course programme it’s designed to help you learn welding from home without a instructor present.
You watch our instructional videos to understand welding theory, processes and practical techniques. Then, whenever you have a question or get stuck, you can ask the Agent for guidance.
When you start practising, you can upload a photograph of your weld and receive feedback on what you've done well and where you could improve.
This Tool has been developed for beginners, helping you build your knowledge, practise your skills and improve your welding faster.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes. Our introductory course is designed with complete beginners in mind. You can learn about the different welding processes — MIG, TIG and MMA — so you can decide which is right for you.
From there, you can learn the foundational skills step by step, practise at your own pace and progress onto more advanced techniques and projects as your confidence grows.
-
Our innovative product helps assist you learning and combines AI technology with expert welding knowledge developed through teaching hundreds of beginner welders in person.
For weld image analysis, we use a computer vision model that has achieved an accuracy rate of 77% in our testing. Like any AI system, it won't get everything right, so its feedback should be used as guidance to help you understand your weld and what to practise next.
The quality of the image matters too. Clear, well-lit photographs where the weld is easy to see will help the Coach provide more useful feedback.
The technology will continue to develop as we improve the Coach and the way it analyses welds.
-
You don't need a workshop full of expensive tools to start welding. At a minimum, you'll need a welder, suitable PPE, an angle grinder and some basic consumables.
If you're not sure what to buy, we've put together a recommended equipment list to help you choose suitable beginner-friendly equipment. We can also provide recommendations and access to discount codes on selected equipment.
One of the great things about learning to weld is that you can get started with a relatively small amount of equipment and add to your setup as your skills and projects develop.
-
Absolutely — YouTube is a great place to learn about welding. The challenge comes when you start practising yourself. A video can show you how to weld, but it can't look at the weld you've just made and tell you what to improve.
The Academy gives you a clear learning path through 16 modules and 80+ videos, taking you from beginner fundamentals through to more advanced welding skills, without having to piece together fragmented information from different sources.
-
Yes. You can cancel your membership at any time. There’s no long-term commitment — simply pay monthly for as long as you want to remain a member.
-
Yes. Learning to weld takes practice, but you can absolutely develop your skills at home.
Our beginner-focused approach concentrates on the areas new welders typically struggle with. Follow the Academy syllabus, practise the techniques and start building our beginner projects to gradually develop your welding and fabrication skills.
And you don't have to figure everything out on your own. If you get stuck, ask the Welding Coach for guidance or upload a photo of your weld to get feedback on what to work on next.
The Weld Space has also received 100+ five-star reviews from people learning welding and fabrication with us.
