Engineering knowledge graph

decisioncomponentchangeBOMnetdesign

Meetings · Slack/Teams · Agile/Jira · GitHub · Drive → one queryable graph with provenance

/ Approach

First principles: the graph is the product.

Documents are evidence. VoltForge reconstructs engineering decisions from schematics, BOMs, CAD exports, and team messages — building a queryable graph that answers why, not just what changed.

— Searching Agile for component history across revisions
— Manual BOM and datasheet comparisons before every design review
— Lost design decisions when engineers leave or projects archive
— No reuse of proven PCB patterns from past projects

04 · CAD Assist

Exact dimensions without opening MCAD

CAD Assist overlays on SolidWorks so engineers extract board width, mounting holes, and envelope specs in seconds — no digging through the MCAD tree when a dimension is in doubt.

/ The platform

One platform. One source of truth.

Passive ingestion builds the graph. Reasoning and API layers answer engineering questions with cited evidence.

/ Ingestion + graph

Multi-layer hardware graph

BOMs, schematics, PCB exports, PLM data, and meeting transcripts become structured nodes and edges.
