Every leading AI model, single location
Access the frontier models your organization relies on directly inside Flux.
Built-in hardware tools
Each model connects to specialized CAD tools, design context, and hardware workflows.
Upgrade without platform switches
Access newer models as they ship without changing your primary hardware environment.
Zero single-provider dependency
Avoid reliance on one vendor for your team's hardware design capacity.
Optimal models for every task
Adaptive routes each design task to its ideal model, handling both complex logic and routine verification.
Kernel-agnostic CAD
Selects the proper CAD kernel for every part.
Old CAD platforms depend on one geometry engine, locking every design to its constraints. Flux works across kernels, just as it works across AI models. The AI engineer selects the right engine for each component, swaps kernels when needed for specific features, and merges all parts into a unified model.

Design rule checking
Automated electrical and manufacturing constraint checks for every schematic and layout.
Datasheet validation
Parses the datasheet of every component to verify schematics against pinouts, ratings, and operational limits.
Orchestration
Single brief. An entire team of AI engineers.
Provide Flux with a complete product. The primary AI engineer breaks the project into parallel workstreams, manages them across projects, and delivers unified status updates.
Concurrent execution
Every task runs in its dedicated thread. Main boards, add-on modules, and enclosures are developed simultaneously.
Cross-project coordination
The lead AI system launches work in separate projects while monitoring everything centrally.
Automated management
It tracks every thread, corrects deviations from the specifications, and combines final outputs.
Complete team control
Design updates altering board dimensions or connector locations require explicit approval.
Creating a system with three daughterboards
Flux generates design requirements for every board, defining outlines, mounting holes, connectors, and matching enclosure cutouts. Each module receives a dedicated project and AI engineer for concurrent design. Flux then compiles all boards inside the main assembly, measuring mechanical clearances and connector positioning in millimeters.
Collaboration
Engineers, partners, and AI assistants in one shared environment.
Flux operates in your browser. Teams access identical live models, work on them concurrently, and eliminate file transfers entirely.
-
Real-time co-authoring.
