THey offer several versions starting with a free version and going up to a
multi-axis version that can fo 5-axis indexed milling.   They price
different from hobby and commercial use.  The top-end hobby price is $250.
But you get the most bast version free.

The big limitation with this is they all accept STL files as input.  But
even so, the high-end version does things like pockets and drilling.

I found this some years ago when I was looking around.  Then found
Fusion360.  It was obviously better.   Now it appears Solidworks is going
to take its place.
