Platform Overview

Violet provides no-code connectors to software tools used across the hardware lifecycle.

Seamlessly ingest data from Requirements Management, CAD, PLM, Modeling & Sim, MES, ERP and more.

Your data is structured and mapped into our internal Violet Data Language as it’s ingested, meaning data is normalized across all disparate tools and formats.

Violet uses a “poll” mechanism and a hub-and-spoke architecture to ingest data from any data source, whether or not it has a webhook. (But we can support those too).

We offer 70 live integrations (and counting).

Check out our full list of Integrations to get started.

Set up automated workflows in Violet that seamlessly sync data between tools.

For example, set up a Part data sync from Teamcenter, Solidworks PDM or Windchill to an MES like ION, Manufacturo or Boltline, and to an ERP like NetSuite:

Or, sync data via a one-off push:

Easily create reports of your data that dynamically update and re-calculate as source data changes.

• Create a filtered view of data, a corresponding custom view, and custom plots for a team, project or subsystem.

• Summarize purchase, invoice and receipt status for a set of purchase orders.

• Track part data, purchase orders and invoices for each part number in a Bill of Materials:

Execute scripts natively in Violet. We support Python, Julia, and Matlab via embedded Jupyter notebooks.

Scripts can connect to Violet data at both the input and output. Scripts can be set to run live, meaning they will be triggered to re-run if an input variable changes.

Check out this example of a script calculating a satellite’s Orbital Period using an altitude parameter, and writing the results to a period parameter.

Set up and tailor notifications for only the changes you care about.

Even better, notifications can be sent to Slack (and Teams - coming soon). Build a curated, near real-time news feed of the information most important to you.

Establish an authoritative data backbone for your product using Violet parameters.

Parameter values can be populated manually, or you can dynamically link them to real data, like a component mass or a simulation result.

Each parameter contains metadata that enables Violet to reason about it within the system - like units (eg. km) and category (eg. mass).

Violet is streamlining systems engineering with data- and math-aware requirements management.

Ingest requirements from connected apps like Jama, Flow or Valispace or create them natively in Violet.

Our dynamic approach to requirements management allows you to:

• Define a requirement mathematically, including specifying any constraints with an operator and a value.

• Directly link constraints to the real-time properties of the systems or components the requirement describes, such as a mass or a performance spec.

• Link verification procedures to their corresponding requirements, automatically surfacing and tracking fields like assignee, status, and test result.

With this framework, Violet enables a real-time traceability matrix out of the box.

Violet primarily serves as the home base for an “organic” digital thread, where a model of your product is organically built up over time.

Through this, Violet also supports more formal Model-Based Systems Engineering practices, like SysML and OML.

This modernizes the traditional MBSE experience in a number of ways:

• Import SysML

  • Upload a SysML model from Google Drive, Microsoft Sharepoint, or straight from your desktop. The model will be parsed into Violet’s data language and can then be managed as a set of entities with associated relationships.

  • We currently support SysML v1 and SysML v2 imports

• Export SysML or OML

  • To build a model, first group desired entities using Tags. Then, add in any custom relationships between these entities using Relationships. Last, export the model in your desired format (eg. SysML or OML) and open the file in your MBSE tool of choice, like Cameo, MagicDraw or Rosetta.

• Generate a SysML v2 model in Scripts (Coming Soon)

  • In Violet’s Scripts feature, you’ll be able to programmatically generate a model using the SysML v2 kernel.

Violet's goal is to provide a delightful software experience with hardcore security. Violet ensures your data is safe via:

• End-to-end encryption with FIPS-certified key operations

• Daily backups

• 30-day storage

• SOC 2 Type II accreditation

Additionally, VioletGov provides full ITAR/EAR-compliance.

We will also be CMMC Level 2.0 compliant by late 2025.
