"The models are simplistic. They're extremely fragile. They don't have design intent." - Onshape's Darren Henry on most AI-generated CAD. Then he showed what's actually possible: onshp.co/Ds

The Most Complex AI-Generated Usable Design Ever? PTC May Have Done It. - ENGtechnica

At PTC NEXT, Darren Henry says Onshape's FeatureScript is his cheat code in the AI-for-CAD game.

Most hardware teams find problems late. That’s a tooling problem. Onshape handles CAD and PDM in one cloud-native system. Arena handles PLM. Together they close the loop, from first design branch to released part. Find problems in design, not production: onshp.co/Dp

Cloud-Native CAD, PDM, and PLM: Find Problems Earlier

See how Onshape and Arena connect CAD, PDM, and PLM into one workflow that surfaces problems earlier at every stage of development.

If your CAD system still depends on specific machines, locations, or file sharing, it’s slowing decisions, collaboration, and production. Here are 3 signs it’s holding your team back: onshp.co/CW

3 Signs Your CAD Software Can’t Keep Up

Three indicators that file-based CAD is limiting distributed engineering teams with restricted access, hardware lock-in, and inefficient supplier collaboration.

From ghost check-outs to VPN workarounds, traditional PDM software is often the cause of teeth grinding and neck tension. We rounded up 5 reasons engineers hate PDM, and how Onshape makes CAD work feel a lot less stressful: onshp.co/CH

5 Reasons Engineers Hate PDM Software

Engineers have always put up with PDM software. With Onshape, you don't have to put up with anything – not even files. Learn how.
