End to end
A single AI agent for entire devices.
Our platform handles these requirements within a single workspace. An individual AI agent drives development from initial specifications through production outputs. Your human staff approves each phase.
Initial specifications
Begin with a text brief, system block diagram, or formal requirements text.
Component selection and schematics
The software selects available parts and draws the schematic.
PCB routing
The platform routes and places traces according to your custom guidelines and fabricator constraints.
Physical hardware and cabling
The system models enclosures, mounting hardware, and internal wiring harnesses based on the actual PCB.
Embedded software
The agent programs and validates firmware specifically for its newly created circuit.
Validation and production export
The software verifies rules and runs simulations after modifications. It subsequently generates your bill of materials, STEP, IPC-2581, ODB++, and Gerber deliverables.
Model-agnostic AI
The AI models you trust. Our engineering platform.
Flux connects advanced AI models to an agent system designed for CAD and EDA. These models provide the logic. Our platform adds the tools, workflows, and project background needed to produce physical hardware.
- OpenAI
- Anthropic
- Google Gemini
- More as they ship
Top model capabilities for 30% less money.
Our system divides engineering work into smaller pieces and assigns them based on capability and price. Complex choices require advanced models. Simple tasks utilize cheaper, faster alternatives. Unrelated jobs process concurrently to finish devices quickly. Engineers interact with a single AI interface while our software manages the background assignments.

All major models in one place
Use the advanced models your organization prefers within our platform.
Integrated engineering capabilities
Each model connects to specific workflows, background details, and specialized tools.
Upgrade without migrating
Access newer models as they release without changing your engineering platform.
Vendor independence
Maintain your engineering output without relying on a single AI provider.
Task-matched AI selection
Our routing system pairs each stage with the model that does it best, from complex architecture to simple verification.
Kernel-agnostic CAD
Selects the appropriate CAD kernel for each part.
Standard CAD software restricts your designs to a single geometry engine, and every part inherits its limits. Our platform is kernel agnostic, just as it is model agnostic. The AI interface selects the correct engine for specific parts, changes kernels if a feature fails to generate, and combines all pieces into a unified assembly.
-
OpenCascade
Exact, standard geometry that CAM and CAD software read cleanly. Excellent for multi-part assemblies and machined components.
-
SMLib
Smooth, curvature-continuous surfaces designed for handheld and consumer products.
-
Parasolid On request
The geometry engine used by SolidWorks, NX, Solid Edge, and Onshape, allowing native file exchange.
Visually verify surface quality. Zebra stripes, curvature maps, and curvature combs prove every surface is smooth. This happens before a part enters tooling.
Verification lab
Verifies and simulates designs prior to production.
Our platform goes beyond design generation. The AI interface tests its output using commercial solvers and presents the findings to your team.
Electrical circuit simulation
The AI interface executes and interprets SPICE simulation for mixed-signal, power, and analog circuits.
Electromagnetic simulation
Complete wave analysis for antennas, crosstalk, S-parameters, and impedance on your routed boards.
Thermal modeling
Airflow and temperature analysis for enclosures and printed circuit boards prior to manufacturing.
Fluid dynamics
Cooling and airflow analysis ensures heat sinks, fans, and vents function properly before prototyping.
Mechanical stress analysis
Structural finite-element testing for mounts, brackets, and external enclosures.
Automated rule checking
Manufacturing and electrical constraint validation for all boards and schematics.
Component datasheet validation
Reviews component datasheets to verify your layout against operating limits, ratings, and pinouts.
Orchestration
A single prompt. An entire AI engineering staff.
Assign our platform a full product build. The primary AI agent divides the tasks, initiates concurrent project threads, oversees progress, and delivers results.
Concurrent execution
Each workstream operates in its own agent thread. The enclosure, daughterboards, and main board develop simultaneously.
Multi-project scope
The primary agent initiates work across other projects and monitors everything from a central dashboard.
Automated management
The system tracks all activities, corrects deviations from your requirements, and gathers the final outputs.
Manual oversight
Modifications that move an interface or resize a board require your explicit permission.
Designing devices with three daughterboards
Our platform generates documentation for each board detailing connectors, outlines, mounting holes, and corresponding enclosure openings. Every circuit receives an individual AI agent and project space for simultaneous development. The software then integrates these completed boards into a primary assembly while verifying millimeter clearances and connector alignments.
Collaboration
Collaborate with partners, staff, and AI agents inside a single active workspace.
Our software operates entirely via web browser. All participants view and edit the current design simultaneously. File transfers are completely eliminated.
-
Simultaneous live editing.
Human staff and AI agents modify the shared workspace concurrently. You can view active users and their current selections.
-
Comprehensive version history.
The platform logs every modification along with timestamps and user identities. You can review past versions or branch them into new files.
-
Unified company workspace.
All internal standards, components, and files reside in a central location. Grant editing, commenting, or viewing permissions to your entire staff.
-
External stakeholder collaboration.
Send email invitations for specific files with designated permission levels. Guests access only that assigned workspace instead of your corporate directories.
-
Contextual design reviews.
Tag colleagues and leave comments directly on the layout. All conversations remain attached to the relevant hardware.
-
Safe experimentation.
Create a branch to evaluate new concepts. The primary workspace remains unaffected.
Customizable
Adopts your internal guidelines and applies them across all files.
Each engineering group has unique processes. Input your requirements, integrate your existing software, and allow our platform to create custom utilities for your tasks.
Institutional knowledge
Train the platform like a recent hire. Document your favored components, past learnings, and guidelines so our AI agents utilize them consistently.
Custom constraints
Establish manufacturing limitations and layout rules a single time. The software validates all future layouts against these exact specifications.
Tool integration
Link any MCP server directly, or add a key to any web API. Upload code to your repositories, analyze field failure logs, or use your proprietary internal software.
Secure credentials
Administrators input API keys globally. The AI agents utilize these credentials without direct visibility. Our system attaches them exclusively to your approved external requests.
Dynamic documents
Request custom utilities and receive active dashboards within your workspace. Generate auto-updating power budgets, interactive hardware assemblies, or tracking lists for hardware bring-up.
External AI access
Access our platform via Cursor or compatible external agents. These external systems can modify workspaces and delegate specific tasks to our AI hardware engineer.

The request, as typed in Flux
“The holder must cover a much taller power supply. Make the bent side flange 40 mm deeper. Keep the 4.4 mm hole in the flange where it is. Then cut five 5 x 30 mm vertical vent slots in the new part of the flange, 15 mm apart and centered on the flange width.”
Import legacy data
Upload 3D models, component libraries, and full workspaces. Schematics, parts, and placements import directly, alongside routing from most formats.
Edit with AI assistance
Imported files allow immediate modifications. Type instructions like "move the USB cutout 3 cm left" or "make the enclosure tighter", and the platform executes them.
