AI that helps you design to customer specs faster, without quality slips

CoLab’s AI peer checker reviews early designs against customer specs, DFM rules, and lessons learned to catch issues in minutes. That means you can respond to new requirements quickly, deliver high-quality concepts faster than competitors, and protect your margins.

Quote faster by streamlining internal review processes

ETO quotes rely on cross functional input — but meetings and email chains slow the process down. CoLab lets you share models and drawings through a secure link, giving everyone the ability to review the design and contribute feedback on their own time. This helps your team reach internal consensus and quote confidently without waiting for the next big meeting.

Every design signed off by a qualified engineer and tracked in PLM

As designs evolve, CoLab automatically tracks design decisions, rationale, and approvals. Each review shows who participated, what feedback was addressed, and who approved what. By building sign-off and traceability into your workflow, you can be confident that every design meets the right standard before it’s sent to the customer.

Get customer feedback earlier with Portals

Instead of waiting for in-person reviews, share concepts and models with customers directly through secure CoLab Portals. Customers can open the design in their browser, add notes, and discuss changes in real time. This makes it easy to validate requirements early and incorporate customer input before quote submission.

Involve sourcing and manufacturing sooner

With CoLab, sourcing and manufacturing teams can access 3D models before production drawings are released, allowing them to flag lead-time risks early. They can flag long-lead components, suggest stock alternatives, and identify small geometry changes that reduce cost or build time, without affecting function.

“It makes it easy to understand why design decisions were made and go back and reference that information. Everything’s in one place—and it makes everything easy to document.”
