01

Connect your CAD & PLM

Connect Onshape, Fusion, SolidWorks, your PLM, and supplier catalogs. Adam reads your geometry, BOMs, drawings, and revisions in real time, one connected graph, no exported copies.

Update the drawing for rev D

Done. Drawing ready:

Tell Adam what you need

Message Adam from wherever you already work: Slack or email. “Thicken the sinking boss,” “build the v3 BOM,” “detail the baseplate drawing.” Adam does the work.

03

Get the finished work

Adam hands back the real output: a branched model edit, a reconciled BOM, an updated drawing, a render set, each linked to its source, ready to ship or adjust.

Works with your stack

Adam connects to the CAD, PLM, suppliers, and tools your hardware team already runs on. No migration, no exported copies of your IP.

What Adam can do for you

Geometry, BOMs, sourcing, renders, docs, vendors. Adam does the recurring work across your CAD and your stack, and hands back the finished output, from model to BOM to drawing to render.

Engineering
The M3 boss keeps sinking on the molded part. Fix it and add draft?

Done. I thinned the boss wall to 1.6 mm, tied it to the floor with a gusset rib, added a 0.5 mm root fillet, and set 1.0° draft toward the A-side. Drawing dims updated to match. Want to see the before/after?

FusionFusion
BOM
Build the BOM for the v3 assembly and flag anything not released.

47 line items, 31 unique part numbers. Six are still WIP rev, and the gasket references rev B while the latest released drawing is rev C, a mismatch. Two screws duplicate under different PNs; I'd consolidate to McMaster 91290A115. Push the released items to Arena?

Drawings
Detail the drawing for the machined baseplate. The dowel bores are the critical fit.

Sheet's done. Dimensioned the bore pattern off datums A|B|C, put an H7 fit and Ø0.05 true position on the two dowel bores, 1.6 Ra on the mating face, and ISO 2768-mK general tolerances in the title block. One dimension chain was over-constrained, so I rebased it from datum B. PDF is in Drive for review.

Sourcing
The Omron limit switch on the v3 just went end-of-life. Find a drop-in replacement.

Browsed Digi-Key, Mouser, and Newark for a drop-in. The Panasonic AVL3 matches the 6.5 N force and footprint, in stock at $0.62 for your 250 qty. I logged the top three in a sheet. Want the full comparison?

Renders
I need a hero shot and an exploded view of the wearable for Friday's review.

Both rendering. Hero is a 3/4 on warm-grey seamless, keyed camera-left with a soft fill and a rim to catch the anodized edge, 35 mm so the proportions read honest. The exploded view pulls the six components along Z with leader callouts. They'll land in ~25 min. Want a turntable too?

Vendors
Get quotes from our two sheet-metal shops for the enclosure, 50 and 250 qty.

Drafted quote requests to both shops with the rev C STEP, the flat-pattern DXF, and the drawing: 5052-H32 at 2.0 mm, 8 bends, clear chromate per MIL-DTL-5541 Type II Class 3, qty breaks and lead time. I left our target price out so we don't anchor them. Both are staged in your drafts to send.

Frequently Asked Questions

Adam edits through your CAD file the way a careful teammate would, adjusting a dimension, adding a feature, or mating a component while respecting the existing history and references. It regenerates the model, shows you which downstream features and BOM lines changed, and flags any edit that would break a parent-child relationship instead of forcing a rebuild.

Adam reads your assembly and PLM (Arena and others) and keeps the BOM in sync as the model changes, flagging part-number, quantity, and revision mismatches instead of silently editing released data.

Your geometry, drawings, BOMs, and correspondence stay in your own accounts and PLM. Adam connects over scoped, authenticated access (OAuth where supported) and reads only what a task needs, never copying your CAD into a separate store. Nothing you connect trains models, nothing is shared between accounts, and every workspace is isolated and encrypted. Enterprise plans add SSO, audit logging, and admin scope controls.

Both are first-class. For industrial designers, Adam rebuilds pinched fillets as curvature-continuous blends and batches photoreal renders that track the latest geometry. For mechanical engineers, it leans into BOMs, drawings, sourcing, and vendor email, detailing drawings with the tolerances and datum callouts you specify. Most teams run both roles on one product, and Adam is the connective layer between them.

Give Adam work that normally requires switching between CAD, spreadsheets, supplier emails, team threads, and engineering docs.

Good examples are cleaning a BOM, preparing a design review, comparing suppliers, packaging a factory handoff, or turning a build thread into clear next steps.

You can start with a plain-language request. Adam reads the connected context, creates a workstream, and shows the result before anything important leaves your hands.

If a task needs clarification, Adam asks instead of guessing. If a task can be completed safely, Adam prepares the result and waits for review.

No. Adam is designed to work across the tools you already use. You do not need to move your team into a new project management system to get value.

The product works best when Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Slack, Notion, Sheets, and web research are connected, but you can begin with only a few tools.

Yes. Adam can prepare emails, calendar holds, document edits, summaries, and research notes, then pause for approval.

The point is to keep work moving without removing human judgment. You stay in control of what gets sent, changed, or shared.

Approval steps appear in the workstream with the relevant source context, proposed output, and next action. You can approve, edit, or ask Adam to revise.

For sensitive actions, Adam returns the work for your review rather than executing silently.

Adam cites the sources it used whenever the work depends on research, past messages, documents, or calendar context.

That makes it easier to check the answer, spot missing context, and decide whether the result is ready.

Adam is designed around the places hardware work already lives: Onshape, Gmail, Calendar, Notion, Drive, Sheets, Slack, Messages, GitHub, Linear, and the web.

The exact set of live integrations can vary by workspace, and new ones ship regularly. If a tool you rely on is missing, tell us.

Adam can use multiple tools inside one workstream. For example, he can read a Slack thread, check a CAD note, draft a supplier email in Gmail, and organize supporting files in Drive.

It feels like one delegated task, not a pile of app-specific automations.

Adam is built to preserve context across a task. It can reference the original request, connected files, message history, meeting notes, and previous outputs in the same workstream.

That context is what lets Adam return useful work instead of generic AI text.

Free is for trying Adam on lighter tasks. Pro fits most individual engineers, and Max is for heavy daily workloads with 10x the usage.

Individual plans are for people delegating their own work. Team and Enterprise are for groups that need shared context, approvals, administration, and support.

Every plan includes a weekly usage limit covering the work Adam performs across research, reasoning, tool use, and generated outputs.

Larger workstreams use more of the weekly limit because they involve more connected context, more tool calls, or longer-running work.

Team is for small groups that want shared workstreams and individual usage limits per assigned seat. Enterprise is for companies that need SSO, audit trails, governance, and rollout support.

Enterprise starts with a conversation with our team rather than a self-serve checkout.

Adam requests only the permissions needed for the connected workflow. Workspace admins decide which tools are connected and who can use them.

For team deployments, access controls and approval trails are visible and auditable, not hidden implementation details.

Yes. Adam is built for delegated work where sensitive actions are prepared for review, not executed without visibility.

Enterprise customers can discuss retention, governance, and security review with us during onboarding.

Adam helps with your workday without asking your team to surrender control to an agent.

The model is careful delegation: Adam drafts, checks, organizes, and prepares. You approve the work that matters.
