First Look at Trace

Today we're giving you a first look at Trace — our AI-native PCB design tool that automates the entire workflow from idea to manufactured board.

Why We Built Trace

Hardware engineers deserve the same AI-powered productivity gains that software developers have enjoyed for years. We built Trace to bridge that gap.

How It Works

Describe what you want to build in natural language. Trace's AI agents handle the rest:

1. Schematic Capture: AI converts your description into circuit block diagrams with proper component connections.
2. Component Selection: Agents search for optimal parts based on your requirements and real-time availability.
3. Layout & Routing: Automated placement and routing on multi-layer boards.
4. Review & Export: DRC/ERC checks and manufacturing file generation.
