Hey Product Hunt fam!
I'm Ayden, co-founder of ProtoFlow. I'm excited to display this updated version of ProtoFlow, an AI-powered EDA platform to help engineers and hardware teams move from concept to production-ready PCB design in minutes.
For those of you who don't know, ProtoFlow is built for:
- Hardware engineering teams tired of clunky, time-consuming EDA software
- Hardware developers looking to automate tedious manual routing and part matching
- Teams looking to eliminate manual footprint creation by generating custom components instantly with AI
With a simple, AI-based workflow, you can skip the friction of traditional design, validate components in real time, and collaborate with your team live. You don't need to forfeit your favorite legacy tools either; ProtoFlow exports directly to platforms like KiCad and Altium so you can choose to continue your workflow from them at anytime.
I'd love your honest feedback, especially:
- What are the biggest bottlenecks and most time-consuming tasks in your current design workflow?
- What specific features would make you immediately switch your team over to ProtoFlow?
