We aim to increase productivity in manufacturing and engineering by automating CAD data sharing and embedding security and traceability into new business models that are based on design licensing.
Designs made in the CAD sector are not sufficiently protected by only copyright law and they are not fully included in patent law. This creates a problem when a business needs to share this data with other parties to produce or collaborate.
In the past this would lead to numerous contracts and negotiations back and forth. Mistakes in the contracts can lead to disasterous consequences. When aware of this problem this creates a barrier for entry, but when not aware of this problem the business is at severe risk for having their IP stolen, copied, or even worse... Trademarked in China. The costs of doing it ‘right’ are notoriously high, with some SMEs being unable to afford it, this creates a wrong balance between larger companies with a legal backbone and smaller companies.
We are there for CAD businesses who want to collaborate and focus on design without spending time and money on contractual negotiations and still risk losing their IP. Our product is a new SAAS solution that provides secure CAD Data sharing, tracking and IP protection. Unlike DAMS and other cloud solutions, we offer full security during the entire design and production process and combine legal solutions with geometrical twin technology ensuring both legal compliance and technological protection.
Our software creates authentic ownership certificates and irreversibly links these to their owner.
Trace the file from origin to producer, based on authentication and smart contracts to log, store and safeguard the data and keep your IP safe.
Our software provides KYC data and smart contracts for selling or licensing your IP to third parties.
Counterfeit items being produced, or IP being infringed upon and legal action will have to be taken.
Giving away control over your data, once it is out of the company PDM.
Losing income because monetizing the design requires sharing, but CAD data sharing cannot be managed and tracked efficiently.

Using our plugins for Autodesk* you can seamlessly convert your design to a protected file. This will give you a proof of creation certificate and allows you to prove that you are the IP holder.
The digital twin asset that you create in step one can be sold, distributed or licensed within our system. Because we take care of KYC you can trust that the party you are dealing with is legit.
When collaborating you are likely to need to share your files with third parties. Within our ecosystem you can collaborate and utilize freelance workers without risk to your assets.
To further protect your assets, our software provides integral smart contracts between individual parties when viewing, purchasing or interacting with the applicable design. Save time and money on contractual negotiations due to our contract management solution.
