Teckton

Tekton — the AI-native workspace that takes a hardware team from CAD to cost in one room. Getting a manufactured product from design to the factory floor is messy and manual. A designer models parts in CAD and emails/Slacks files back and forth across dozens of SME teams (thrust, loads, weights…), iterating thousands of parts. Then cost engineers take those designs and compute pricing by hand-dialing "knobs" — material, manufacturing process, supplier, country — to produce a notional price for vendor negotiation. The geometry, the engineering feedback, and the cost reasoning live in three different places. Context gets lost in inboxes, and pricing is slow and opaque. Tekton puts all of it in one workspace. You import a BOM (CSV) and a 3D STEP assembly — parsed in-browser via OpenCascade — and click any part in the tree or the 3D model to select it (selection syncs both ways). For each part, a Claude Opus 4.8 agent estimates cost from real physics: bounding box → volume → mass → process → country → quantity drives a notional unit price with a full line-item breakdown and rationale, backed by a deterministic volumetric model so an estimate always appears. An embedded Claude Agent SDK Copilot sees each part's design and pricing config and can run what-if estimates or apply a change and re-price instantly. Teams sign in, join by code, and collaborate on a shared design with per-part comments, presence, and approve/lock — isolated per team via row-level security. It ships as an Electron desktop app (native CAD/BOM file access, always-open workspace).
