Trace is live

After months of development and testing with early users, we're excited to announce that Trace is now available to everyone.

What is Trace?

Trace is an AI-native PCB design tool that handles your entire workflow from idea to manufactured board. It's a native desktop app with deeply integrated AI agents that assist with schematic capture, component selection, layout, routing, and export.

Three Ways to Work

Agent Mode: AI reads, writes, and modifies your schematic and PCB files directly. Hands-free design with full tool access.

Ask Mode: Free forever. Ask questions about your designs, get expert answers — no file modifications.

Plan Mode: Multi-phase workflow where AI researches, plans, gets your approval, then executes. Full control over what gets built.

Getting Started

Download Trace for macOS, Windows, or Linux at buildwithtrace.com. New users get a 14-day trial of all features, and Ask Mode is free forever.

We can't wait to see what you build.
