ForgePilot: AI for Mechanical Engineering Analysis, FMEA, Tolerance Stack-Up, GD&T Drawing Review, and Standards Compliance
Stop rebuilding your engineering analysis in a spreadsheet every revision.
FMEA, tolerance stack-ups, GD&T drawing review, and standards compliance, all done by AI and versioned to the exact file it ran against, not scattered across four different tools. Solo or with your whole team.
Works with whatever CAD you already export from, SolidWorks, Fusion 360, CATIA, NX, or none of the above. No plugin to install, no seat license, no IT procurement. Upload the file, get the analysis.
Prompt
AR 14 flutter onset ≈ 23 m/s, below cruise. Design-limiting. Not a weight issue, an aeroelastic one.
L/D: +18% at AR 10 vs AR 8. Root bending moment: 2.4× at AR 12. Spar mass penalty: +340 g per AR unit above 10.
AR 10.5, T800 carbon spar, 3.1 mm wall. Validate flutter margin via FEA above 20 m/s.
Used by engineers and engineering students in aerospace, manufacturing, robotics, and coursework
What actually happened when we tested it
Asked a fatigue safety-factor question in plain chat. The AI's own written answer said 3.38. The independent verification engine recomputed it separately and got 2.53, the AI had forgotten to apply the stress concentration factor. Caught before it mattered.
Ran a drawing review, then asked for an FMEA, then a tolerance stack-up, all in the same thread. The FMEA cited the exact defects the drawing review flagged. The stack-up reused the same bore numbers. Zero re-uploading, zero re-explaining.
A real uploaded FMEA spreadsheet came back “corrupted or unreadable.” Root cause: .xlsx parsing was never actually wired up, it silently mangled the file. Fixed the same day. Bring your own templates now, they're read correctly.

Where ForgePilot started
FMEA is not a bolt-on feature here, it's the flagship
Most engineering-AI tools treat FMEA as an afterthought, if they touch it at all. ForgePilot was built around it: upload a design or describe it in plain English and get failure modes ranked by RPN, with a specific corrective action for each one, not a generic template you still have to fill in.
Try the FMEA Generator FreeRanked, not listed
Severity × Occurrence × Detection, highest risk first, not alphabetical.
Specific, not generic
"Increase fillet radius to r ≥ 1.5mm", not "consider design improvements".
Cross-file, in seconds
Reads your CAD geometry, test logs, and spec sheets together in one pass.
Why ForgePilot
Generic AI gives you information. ForgePilot gives you engineering judgment, inside a workspace built around your project.
You ask about a part failing
Lists all possible failure modes alphabetically
Ranks the 2-3 most probable failures by severity, tells you what to inspect first
You upload a CAD file
Describes what it sees visually
Identifies stress concentrations, thin walls, DFM issues, and manufacturability problems
You send test data (CSV, PDF)
Summarizes the data generically
Flags outliers, approaching limits, fatigue margins, and failure mode implications
You ask a follow-up
May lose context from earlier messages
Maintains full engineering context across the entire session
Core Capabilities
AI reasoning fused with deep engineering domain knowledge.
Numbers you can check, not a wall of text
Ranked failure modes, first-principles analysis, specific numbers, not directions. Root causes first. Always.
Upload Anything Technical
STL, STEP, PDF datasheets, CSV test logs, VTK simulation results, Abaqus .inp, GCode, up to 10 files at once. Exported from SolidWorks, Fusion, CATIA, or anything else, no plugin, no seat license required. Full cross-file analysis in a single prompt.
Machine-checked, not model-guessed
The 8 core calculators, tolerance stack-up, stress, pressure vessel, bolted joint, and more, run as deterministic math, not free-text generation. The AI explains the result; it doesn't invent the number.
Engineering Report Generation
Export any session as a formatted engineering report, one click from conversation to structured PDF. Auto-formatted with summary, analysis, and recommendations.
One workspace, not five tools
6 AI agents and 8 calculators live in the same continuous thread as your chat: FMEA, tolerance stack-up, drawing review, standards compliance, and more. No switching apps, no re-uploading the same file to a different tool.
Built for teams, not just individuals
Shared team projects everyone can see, live member presence, comments on every analysis, and formal sign-off stamped by name and date, so review happens in the workspace, not over email.
Workflow
Ask or Upload
Type a question or attach any engineering file: CAD, PDF, STL, CSV, test data, GCode, or multiple files at once.
Analyze
First-principles reasoning. Ranked failure modes. Specific numbers, standards citations, not vague directions.
Iterate
Follow up naturally. Full session context maintained. No need to re-explain the problem or re-upload files.
Decide
Walk away with specific alloys, tolerances, process choices, or next testing steps, not just possibilities.
Every project stays exactly as you left it. Revise the design next week, and ForgePilot picks up from where you stopped, not from zero.
