An independent evaluation of a tool that reads schematic drawings into netlists, across 59 designs from KiCad, Eagle, EasyEDA, Altium and OrCAD. Pin accuracy is 68.9 percent of 16,817 pins, connection recall is 0.556 against precision 0.975, and 14 designs had under 70 percent of parts found. The numbers show how far reading a PDF schematic still is from a usable netlist when the native files are not available.

Analyst note
From the Grok pain-radar digests, Nov 11-12 2026 (Nov 11 8:41 AM ET through Nov 12 5:41 AM ET digests plus the Haitch editions). Verified live 2026-11-12: issue/PR read; title and state confirmed.
What it costs a team
Modeled annual cost
$30,000
For a team of 5
Prototype delay
3 days
Modeled schedule slip per occurrence
Time lost
240 min
Per engineer per month, about 1 incidents
How the cost is modeled
240 min/month × 5 engineers × 12 months = 240 hours × $125/hour = $30,000
