When you run virtual design reviews with CoLab, you codify expert knowledge automatically as you go. Now, AI agents can understand how your team makes decisions — so they can annotate files and surface insights that help you converge on the best design faster.

Recalls, scrap,
program delays

You have the technical know‑how to prevent these issues — you’re just not tapping into it.

Lessons learned aren’t documented (or nobody knows where to find them)
You have hundreds of pages of standards and guidelines, and no time to review them all
When documents and processes fail, you fall back on a single SME to prevent issues

Your most experienced engineers can’t be in every review.

With CoLab, they don’t have to be.

Comment example

AutoReview, CoLab’s AI Peer Checker, runs a first pass check

AutoReview is an AI Peer Checker trained on your design standards and guidelines, lessons learned, and industry best practices. It annotates drawings and 3D models to identify errors and non-conformances, so you can bring a cleaner design to your first SME review.

Run virtual design reviews, so SMEs can flag risks earlier

Use CoLab to make CAD accessible in the browser, so anyone can explore the model and add feedback — without needing special tools or training. In live reviews, engineers see each other’s comments appear in real time, sparking better ideas and discussions.

Track and organize knowledge as a byproduct of reviews (not an extra step)

Feedback in CoLab is automatically saved with full design context and pulled into a structured database — so it’s easy to search, filter, and act on. You can also bring in data from PLM, ERP, and past reviews to create a single source of design knowledge across your tools.

Deploy AI agents trained on your organization's collective knowledge

With your product data and knowledge data together in one place for the first time, you can deploy agents that assist engineers at any phase of a program. CoLab’s first out-of-the-box agent finds similar designs and surfaces insights from past reviews on those designs, automating the traditional lessons learned process.

Connecting CoLab with PLM and CAD is fast, easy, and secure.

CoLab integrates with major PLM systems, including Windchill, Teamcenter, and 3DXPERIENCE. You can share CAD directly to CoLab from your PLM, maintaining critical data associations. Because CoLab accepts 30+ file types, it’s easy to review native CAD, even if you’re working with a supplier or customer that uses a different CAD tool.
