The real problem

Your shop does not have a checking problem. It has a people problem.

    3 · Confirm

    A person signs it off

    Each finding has evidence and a suggested fix. Mark it correct or a false alarm, and the rules improve.

    Fair questions

    What builders ask before they say yes

    Will it work with our designs?
    It works with the formats you already use. No rip and replace, no new system to learn. We start from your existing pinouts and drawings.
    Our data is messy.
    Messy is normal. The first step is a data audit that turns what you have into something usable. We need a starting point, not perfect data.
    Where do our drawings go?
    Your choice. It is built to run offline on your own machine, or in a private cloud set up for you alone. Either way, nothing is shared, used to train models or seen by other clients. NDA before we see a file.
    We already have people who check.
    Having people is not the same as having a system. People get sick, leave and bottleneck at peak. This takes the first pass off them so they confirm instead of hunt.
    We can't risk a trial on a live job.
    A small paid pilot on up to 3 jobs you choose, run alongside your normal checks. You see the result on real work before you commit.
    Does it approve designs?
    No. It flags, your engineer decides. Sign-off always stays with your team.

    Is it worth it?

    Work it out with your own numbers

    The starting figures are examples. Change them to yours. This is your estimate, not a promise. The paid pilot measures the real figure on your own jobs.

    Pricing

    One fixed price, set after we see your process

    Installs start from £5,000. The price depends on your formats, rules and how many people use it, and is fixed in writing before you commit. Compare it with the cost of one missed deadline or one harness built wrong, or work it out with your own numbers.
