Every frontier model
Models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and more, with the right one picked for each step.
The AI hardware engineering platform for teams.
Give every engineer on your team an AI hardware engineer. Electronics, layout, mechanical, and manufacturing in one shared workspace, running on the AI models you choose.
Your engineers already use AI. Give them a real hardware harness.
Coding agents can write code. They can't select parts, route a layout, or check a design against your manufacturer's rules. Flux gives frontier models the CAD, EDA, and parts data they need to do real hardware engineering.
No lock-in
Switch models as the frontier moves, without betting on a single provider.
One request. A whole team of AI engineers.
Hand Flux a complete product. The lead AI engineer splits it into workstreams, starts parallel threads across projects, manages them, and reports back.
Parallel threads
Each workstream runs in its own agent thread. The main board, the daughterboards, and the enclosure come together at the same time.
Across projects
The lead engineer starts work in other projects and tracks it all from one place.
Managed for you
It monitors every thread, steers work that goes off the brief, and collects the results.
You stay in control
Changes that move an interface or resize a board wait for your approval.
Example
A product with three daughterboards
Flux writes a brief for each board with its outline, mounting holes, connectors, and the enclosure openings they line up with. Each board gets its own project and its own AI engineer, and all three are designed in parallel. Flux then places the finished boards in the main assembly and measures clearances and connector alignment in millimeters.
Hand off an outcome, not a task.
Describe what the product needs to do. Flux plans the work, designs the electronics, layout, and enclosure, checks its own work, and hands it back for your review.
- From requirements to a complete, reviewable design.
- Design rule and electrical checks on every change.
- Several boards in one product, designed in parallel.
- You approve changes to interfaces and board size.
Built for how hardware teams work.
One workspace for the whole team, with your knowledge and your rules applied to every project.
Shared projects
Everyone works in the same project, in the browser. Nothing to install.
Team knowledge
Preferred parts, design guidelines, and lessons learned apply across every project.
Your rules
Layout rules and your manufacturers' capabilities are checked on every design.
Shared AI usage
One pool of AI usage for the team, so work never waits on a single seat.
Edit together in real time.
Engineers, reviewers, and AI engineers work in the same project at the same time. You see who is in the project and what they have selected.
Every change is saved.
Flux records each change, who made it, and when. Open any earlier version, or restore it as a new project.
Work with suppliers, clients, and contractors.
Invite anyone to one project by email, with view, comment, or edit access. They get that project, not the rest of your organization.
Review where the design is.
Comment in the project and @mention a teammate. The discussion stays with the design.
Your designs stay yours.
- Single sign-on (SSO)
- Project-level permissions
- You own every input and output
- No training on your data
Flux for your kind of team.
See how Flux fits the way your team already works.
- Startups Your first hardware team, from day one.
- Engineering leaders Give every engineer a team of AI engineers.
- Enterprise innovation Prototype at startup speed inside a large company.
- Firmware teams Firmware that matches the board.
- Design shops and consultants Deliver client hardware faster, at a better margin.
- Contract manufacturers Get designs that are ready to build.
- Machine shops Quote faster. Fix customer parts before you cut metal.
- Industrial design studios From concept to a product that works.
Works inside your stack.
Flux works with the agents and tools your engineers already use, in both directions.
Connect your tools to Flux
Add any MCP server, or start from built-in presets, and Flux can use it while it designs.
Use Flux from your agents
Call Flux from Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible agent your engineers already work in.

Questions engineering teams ask.
Flux is your team's autonomous hardware engineer. Give it a requirement. It plans the design, picks the parts, draws the schematic, routes the board, shapes the enclosure, and writes the firmware. It checks its own work in simulation and design rule checks, and hands your engineers files ready to manufacture. See the enterprise PCB software evaluation guide for team evaluation questions.
Claude and Codex are general AI agents. They can write code and CAD scripts, but they cannot see your board or enclosure, run engineering simulation, or check live part prices and stock. Flux runs the same frontier models inside a complete hardware engineering environment. It sees the design, builds real CAD geometry, simulates it, checks every part against its datasheet and live distributor data, and gets quotes from fabricators. Your whole team shares the projects, knowledge, and rules.
Electrical engineering, PCB layout, mechanical design, firmware, and manufacturing, in one shared project. Flux also runs circuit, electromagnetic, thermal, and mechanical simulation to check its own work.
Frontier models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google, with more as they ship. Adaptive gives each task to the model that does it best for the price, so your team gets frontier results at lower cost.
Yes. Flux imports complete projects from Altium, Cadence OrCAD and Allegro, KiCad, Siemens PADS and Xpedition, Zuken CADSTAR, Eagle, Fusion Electronics, EasyEDA, DipTrace (XML export), and SOLIDWORKS PCB. Schematics, parts, connections, board outlines, and placement come across. Flux imports Labcenter Proteus SDF netlists with Specctra board exports. IPC-2581 revision B and C files become board projects with reusable footprint parts. IDF 2.0 and 3.0 board files become board projects with the outline, cutouts, drilled and mounting holes, part placements, and 3D part heights. Mechanical parts and complete assemblies come in through STEP, from tools like SolidWorks, CATIA, Creo, Onshape, NX, and Fusion. You can export all your files at any time and get them manufactured.
Yes. Flux writes firmware for the microcontrollers on the board it designed, for example Arm Cortex-M, RISC-V, AVR, and Raspberry Pi Pico. Then it builds, analyzes, and unit tests the code.
Flux runs on SOC 2-aligned cloud infrastructure, with single sign-on and project-level permissions. Your inputs and outputs are always your IP, and Flux does not train on customer data. Read the Security and Trust page.
Yes. Write your design guidelines, preferred parts, and layout rules once, and every AI engineer in your organization applies them. You can also connect your own tools through MCP.
No. Flux runs in the browser. Engineers, reviewers, and AI agents work in the same live project, with no licenses or workstations to manage.
The Teams plan costs $500 a month, or $4,900 a year. It includes 5 seats and 600 AI usage units a month that the whole team shares. Each extra seat costs $100 a month and adds 60 usage units. Enterprise plans have custom seats and usage, custom integrations, assisted onboarding, and forward-deployed engineers. Every plan includes collaboration and the choice of AI models.
