What is Violet?

Violet synthesizes your engineering workflows and data into a single powerful environment.

We help you eliminate manual work and drive a step change in your team's productivity.

Abolish silos. Supercharge progress.

Let’s dive in 👇

Slash Development Time

  • Violet establishes a single-source-of-truth that connects modeling, simulation and analysis tasks with real engineering data. No data latency, no need to chase down the latest info.

  • Generate reports and documentation that can be continuously updated with [almost] zero effort.

  • Eliminate manual tasks with automated data sync between any of your tools. Yes, any.

Use Case: Push Data from PLM > MES > ERP

Violet’s Automated Workflows sync part data between tools like PLM, MES and ERP - saving ~10s of hours a week across MechE & supply chain.

Automations can be set up for entire integrations and can be rule-based (e.g., sync Released parts only). Or, you can sync part-by-part.

Some popular tools supported in Workflows:

  • PDM/PLM Teamcenter, Duro, Windchill, Arena, Solidworks PDM, Aras

  • MES ION, Boltline, Manufacturo, StartProto

  • Purchasing Datum, Cofactr, Ramp, Silkline, Precoro, Procurify

  • ERP NetSuite, Acumatica, Costpoint

Reduce Costs

  • Enable super-fast reporting through Violet’s auto-generated, intelligently synthesized reports.

  • Reduce license count for costly tools, eg. for users only needing to reference data. Anything from CAD files to requirements is made centrally available in Violet, in an easier-to-navigate environment.

  • Similarly, reduce training required for slow, legacy tools. Now, only power users need to know how to navigate them.

  • Re-allocate costs budgeted for contractors or project managers towards higher value work.

Use Case: Build Velocity

Violet’s Build Velocity charts provide granular insight into the status of an assembly at any point in time, as well as its velocity through development.

For a given BOM, Violet will return all available data for each part - across PLM, testing, purchasing, etc.

As a result, you have a one-stop-shop for tracking drawing release, purchase request, invoice, integration, etc. - which builds organically over time.

Use it as your “Clear to Build” dashboard, to perform Three-Way Match, or to track part velocity.

Eviscerate Errors

  • Violet’s data ontology is purpose-built for hardware engineering, and it intelligently normalizes and maps your data so you don’t have to. This prevents human-in-the-loop errors and guarantees unit consistency.

  • Control what data is synced or connected via rule-based workflows and approvals.

  • Enable real-time notifications tailored to only what you’re interested in - meaning critical updates aren’t ignored or deleted.

Use Case: Real-time Notifications

Establish a data backbone for your satellite mission that feeds critical simulations and analyses. As inputs and outputs change, be notified in real time.

Parameters can reference your live data, driving activities like tests and scripts.

Violet curates the notifications you care about - straight to Slack

Unlock Value

  • Mitigate risk by democratizing critical data across your org - from day one.

  • Create math-aware requirements and link them to actual data and verification tests.

Use Case: Math-aware Requirements

Forget purchasing a costly legacy requirements management system. All the data you care about is in Violet - that's where your requirements should live too.

Generate Violet Requirements that provide a real-time snapshot of compliance with functional and performance specs, as well as a live verification traceability matrix. With zero extra reporting required.
