Company Brain for Hardware Manufacturers

Hardware brain

Manufacturers are drowning in scattered knowledge. Instructions in Excel, drawings in email, decisions in someone’s head. I built a fix.

Work instruction

The problem

Three things that break in almost every factory:

  1. Instructions scattered across Excel files, Word docs, and people who’ve been there twenty years.
  2. Updates don’t propagate. Change a drawing and the instructions, BOM, and downstream docs are still showing the old version.
  3. Worker knowledge gets lost. The person running the machine has the best ideas — and nowhere to put them.

What it is

One version-controlled source of truth. Parts, assemblies, drawings, and work instructions all connected — change one thing and the system knows what else needs updating.

Workers can flag improvements tied to the exact step they’re on. An engineer reviews, approves, and the idea becomes a documented change — not a Post-it note or a forgotten conversation.

Inspired by Karpathy’s LLM wiki and Git. The manufacturing world runs on knowledge that predates version control. This treats it like code.

In pilot.
