AI in Engineering

Claude can now build CAD inside Autodesk Fusion. Here's what that actually means for engineering teams, and where the real bottleneck still sits.

Compare AI drawing checkers for mechanical engineering. See what CoLab and other tools catch — and how to choose the right one.

When everyone has the same AI tools, the last competitive advantage standing will be your institutional knowledge. Here’s what that means for your engineering team.

SolidWorks' AI features help designers work faster, but they weren't built for design review. Learn where they excel, where they fall short, and how CoLab closes the gaps.

Does engineering AI train on my CAD models? CoLab explains responsible AI data practices and the 5 questions every engineering leader should ask.

AI-driven PLM workflows evolve across four stages — from search and data access to design review, change management, and agentic automation.

AI design review delivers ROI today. Generative CAD isn't there yet. Here's what the workflow data shows and where to invest first.

Protect your proprietary engineering data. Here are the 5 non-negotiable security questions you must ask any AI vendor before integrating their tools.
