Improvements to Part Identification
Live Edit in the Part List for Faster Data Enrichment
We've introduced a new Live Edit feature directly within the Part List to simplify and accelerate the process of updating part information. This transforms the experience of managing data, making bulk screening and data enrichment faster and more intuitive.
Dynamically edit part information directly from the Part List
Now, you can edit key fields, such as technical data or logistics data, inline without leaving the Part List, eliminating the need to navigate to individual part detail pages. For example, if you're screening part inventories from logistical data, you can now quickly add material information for a technical assessment. Conversely, if you're analyzing technical data, you can easily add economic information like lead time, part price, and demand.
This new feature saves time, improves data completeness for unlocking full manufacturability and economic potential analyses, and provides a more efficient workflow for handling thousands of parts.
Add 3D and 2D Files Directly From the Part List
We’ve streamlined the process for adding files to your part assessments, making data integration and file management more efficient.
Now, you can add 3D models or 2D drawings directly from the Part List, even if the data for a complete part assessment is missing. A new “Edit” button provides quick access to the part form, eliminating the need for repetitive navigation when you need to make bulk updates. This allows you to efficiently assess parts by using AI to extract data from technical drawings. The feature also includes built-in loading states and validation to ensure a smooth, reliable experience.
3D File Batch Upload
The ability to upload multiple 3D models simultaneously is now a key feature of our software, making it easier than ever to analyze your parts.
Upload multiple 3D models at once via drag & drop—just like with technical drawings.
You can simply drag and drop files or use a file picker to upload a large volume of part data simultaneously. The software automatically analyzes the models in the background, providing real-time assessments. This saves you time by eliminating the need for manual CSV uploads and allows for high-volume part screening with minimal clicks. The most recent uploads will always appear at the top, and new columns and filters for analysis status help you keep track of everything.
With this new feature, you can quickly assess parts in bulk and leverage our AI-powered solution to accelerate the adoption of on-demand manufacturing.
Enhancements to Distributed Manufacturing
We have significantly upgraded our insert handling capabilities across the platform, delivering a more practical and efficient solution for your workflows. With this new feature, you can now configure and price inserts with greater precision directly from the Customer Workspace.

This enables accurate, automated quoting by capturing detailed insert information, which helps reduce manual overhead and allows you to accomplish more in less time. This update also provides end-to-end transparency by displaying insert data in all views and documents, ensuring alignment across your entire workflow. For shopfloor users, required inserts are now clearly listed in Production Management, which streamlines production and empowers your operations
Other Improvements
Improve Search Rankings With Custom Metadata
Our new feature for custom metadata and search engine optimization allows you to control how your platform appears in search results (Google, Bing, etc). Admins can now define a custom site title and description, which replaces our generic branding with your organization’s name for better SEO customization. This enhancement helps improve your platform’s visibility and brand recognition, ensuring that relevant messaging is displayed to potential customers.
