For Innovation & Research Labs

From breakthrough to shippable hardware.

Research moves fast; handoffs kill it. ProductFlo keeps every prototype, change, and decision in one shared product graph — agents review each change across disciplines, and humans approve. Nothing gets lost between the lab and the production team.

Knowledge That Survives Turnover

Design decisions, change history, and rationale live in the product graph — not in someone's inbox. When researchers move on, the reasoning stays.

Cross-Discipline Change Review

Agents check every change across mechanical, electrical, firmware, and manufacturing before it ships, catching conflicts while they're still cheap.

Clean Technology Transfer

Hand commercial teams a complete, reviewed change history — not a folder of maybe-final files. The audit trail shows what changed, why, and who approved it.

Secure Workspaces

Separate programs, partners, and IP with role-based workspaces. Granular access controls keep sensitive research visible only to the right people.

Works With Your PLM

ProductFlo is the orchestration layer above your PLM as the system of record. No migration, no rip-and-replace — agents read your data in place.

Continuity Through Transitions

People rotate; the graph persists. Every experiment and iteration stays searchable, attributed, and reviewable.

Review Discipline From Day One

Agents propose diffs, humans approve. Prototypes inherit the same change discipline as production hardware — without slowing research down.

IP Protection Built In

Enterprise-grade access controls and a complete audit trail on every change. Your intellectual property is documented and defended.

Start With One Program

Prove it on a single research program: a fixed-scope 30-day pilot at $8,000, on your real work.

Why ProductFlo

Why Innovation Labs Choose ProductFlo

Research Stays Research-Grade

Change review and approval gates bring production discipline to prototypes — without the overhead of a full PLM deployment per project.

Handoffs Stop Being Lossy

Commercial teams receive reviewed history, not archaeology. Every decision is traceable back to the data that drove it.

Keep Your Stack

ProductFlo connects GitHub, Onshape, SolidWorks, KiCad, Arena, and Windchill instead of replacing them.

Audit-Ready Records

Who changed what, when, and who approved it — recorded automatically on every change, ready for any review.

What Teams Say

ProductFlo handles the complexity of regulated medical device development without the overhead of legacy PLM systems. Our compliance team loves it.
