Core Platform Overview

The Three Core Pillars

The system architecture and Developer Experience (DX) are streamlined to categorize all hardware development activity into three fundamental elements:

Inventory: Physical availability, supply chain status, location, and lead times.
Action: Specific tasks completed, physical changes made, or events that occurred.
Blueprint: Technical documentation, CAD files, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and instructions.

The “Session” Engine

Data enters the system through Sessions. A Session is the AI’s interpretation of an event that has occurred. The system is multimodal and can generate a Session from various inputs:

Hardware Inputs: Cameras and audio recording physical work on a workbench.
Software Inputs: Messages sent in Slack, emails, or edits saved in CAD software.

The AI analyzes these inputs and drafts a Session detailing how the captured event impacts Inventory, Actions, and Blueprints.

The Timeline

Crucially, the Timeline acts as the strict gatekeeper for all system changes.

A Session must first be approved and committed to the Timeline before any subsequent updates occur. It is exclusively this finalized Timeline data—never raw inputs or pending Sessions—that has the authority to subsequently modify the Inventory, Action, and Blueprint pillars.

The process moves from AI data capture to a verified timeline through a distinct three-step flow:

AI Captures the Session

Example: A camera records a standard bolt being replaced with a high-tensile bolt. The AI processes the video and creates a pending Session detailing the swap.
Human Review

The drafted Session is presented to a user for review. The user verifies the AI’s interpretation of the event and approves it.
The Timeline is Updated

Upon approval, the Session is pushed to the Timeline—the single source of truth for the company. The AI then automatically updates the related documents based on the approved Session data:
- Inventory: Deducts the high-tensile bolt from available stock.
- Action: Logs the specific task and physical change.
- Blueprint: Edits the Bill of Materials and assembly instructions to reflect the new requirement.

Through this flow, physical and digital activities are captured, verified by a human, and systematically translated into updated company records.
