The DFM copilot for design & manufacturing teams.

Kunstruct AI connects to your PDM system and CAD environment to surface manufacturability issues, cost impacts, and supplier intelligence in real time β€” before drawings are ever released.

This isn't ChatGPT.
It knows your history.

Start from scratch β€” describe the part you're designing. Kunstruct surfaces relevant past programs, baseline geometry, and DFM risks from your actual PDM before a single drawing is released.

Kunstruct AI
Hi β€” I'm Kunstruct AI. I'm connected to your PDM system and have indexed your company's full design history, supplier feedback, and engineering change orders. Ask me anything β€” I'll answer using your actual past programs, not generic internet data.
Describe a part you're designing β€” material, pressure rating, critical features...

Demo uses realistic synthetic data. In production, Kunstruct AI indexes your actual PDM, ECO history, and supplier database.
The Problem

Great engineers.
Broken process.

The design-to-manufacturing loop hasn't structurally changed in decades. The cost shows up as schedule slips, supplier rejections, and lessons learned the hard way β€” twice.

01
The Knowledge Silo Tax
Every senior engineer who retires takes twenty years of lessons learned with them. The ECO history sits in your PDM β€” but nobody can search it, so the same mistakes ship twice.
02
The Drawing Review Tax
Manual drawing checks catch what one reviewer happens to know, on the day they happen to have time. Missing thread callouts and over-tight tolerances sail through to the supplier.
03
The Redesign Loop
79% of engineers we interviewed had released drawings come back from suppliers as unmakeable or overpriced. Every loop costs weeks of schedule and five figures of rework.
Defense-Grade Security

Your CAD data never
leaves your firewall.

Built for aerospace and defense from the first line of code β€” not retrofitted for it.

πŸ”’
Zero Data Retention
Your geometry, drawings, and PDM data are never used for model training and never persist outside your environment.
🏰
Isolated Deployment
Single-tenant architecture. On-premises or GovCloud deployment options keep ITAR-controlled data inside your boundary.

Compliance-First Design
Built from day one around NIST SP 800-171 controls and the realities of defense-contractor IT review.

The Product

Intelligence at every stage
of the design process.

PHASE 1⬑
Foundational Investigation
Kunstruct indexes your PDM β€” every ECO, every lessons-learned entry, every supplier corrective action β€” and runs DFM analysis on new designs against your company's actual history.
14 prior programs indexed
PHASE 2β—ˆ
Generative Co-Pilot
Suggested fixes, not just flags. Re-angle the port, relax the tolerance, swap the callout β€” with the cost impact of each change quantified before you commit.
$47–65/unit recoverable
PHASE 3β—Ž
Autonomous Validation
Full drawing-release validation: every note, datum, and thread spec checked against your standards and your suppliers' real capabilities before the drawing ever ships.
Zero-surprise releases
ANYTIMEβ—‡
Engineering Q&A
Ask anything across your entire design history. "Has this port geometry failed before?" gets answered in seconds with the ECO numbers to prove it.
