Connect CAD, BOMs and supplier context to prepare reviewed engineering work from plain-language requests
Adam is an AI CAD workspace for hardware teams that combines design work with the surrounding engineering information. It connects to CAD and product lifecycle tools, documents, messages and supplier resources so a request can use the context of the actual project. The product is intended for both mechanical engineers and industrial designers, covering tasks from model changes and drawings to bills of materials, sourcing and preparation for a design review.
The website lists Onshape, Autodesk Fusion, SolidWorks and Arena among its supported connections, alongside workplace tools such as Drive, Sheets, Gmail and Slack. Adam reads geometry, revisions, drawings and BOM information through connected access. This lets a task consider related information rather than treating a model, spreadsheet and supplier email as unrelated files. The exact live integrations can vary by workspace.
A plain-language request can ask for a branched model edit, a cleaned-up BOM, an updated drawing or a render set. Other examples include comparing suppliers, drafting quotation requests, finding component alternatives and assembling a manufacturer handoff. The returned work is linked to its source context so an engineer can examine how it relates to the existing design and project records.
For a design review, Adam can gather build notes, unresolved issues and CAD screenshots into a brief. A sourcing task can combine manufacturer part numbers, lead-time concerns and supplier comparisons, while a factory handoff can collect drawings, the BOM, a quality checklist and open questions. The workspace also handles communication work such as turning build blockers into owners and next steps, keeping the engineering task connected to the decisions around it.
Adam describes a workflow in which significant changes and outgoing actions are prepared for review. The user can approve the proposed work, edit it or request another revision. For CAD changes, the product describes checking downstream effects and flagging relationships that would break rather than forcing an edit through. BOM work similarly highlights part-number, quantity and revision mismatches.
Workspace administrators choose which tools are connected and who can access them. Enterprise options add SSO, audit logging and scope controls, allowing a team to align the workspace with its internal review process.
A Free plan supports lighter tasks, while Pro and Max serve different individual workloads. Team and Enterprise add shared work and administrative needs. Usage is measured weekly across reasoning, research, tools and generated outputs, so larger connected tasks consume more allowance. Adam is most relevant when engineering work repeatedly crosses several systems and the team wants prepared deliverables with a visible approval step.
