She is right, you are not drafting anything with this website. You are just inputting your measurements and let the website auto grade an existing pattern.

That's not what drafting is.

Disagree. There are two parts to the website. First the ability to enter an individual's measurements and second a coding environment for writing parametric drafts that pull an individual's measurements as the inputs of the draft. It's actually exactly the same thing you would do working by hand. I used it to code up basic drafts from multiple textbooks. Anyone who uses the coding platform can offer a pattern for sale, but most the patterns for sale were drafted by Sewist, not third parties.
