MISSION

The future of AI Engineering

Engineering today is slowed down by lost knowledge, manual decisions, and disconnected tools. 3ive's Mission is to change that with AI that learns, assists, and evolves with every project.

No more lost insights

by making past engineering experience easily accessible.

No more guesswork decisions

by supporting engineers with AI-driven decision-making.

No more workflow friction

by streamlining workflows and reducing design bottlenecks.

TESTIMONIALS

Trusted by Engineers

Most past engineering data and decisions aren’t digitized, analyzed, or tracked.

“A lot of knowledge ownership is with the individual engineer. If an employee leaves the company, the knowledge is gone. Managers must avoid knowledge silos, otherwise they are highly dependent and have a very poor negotiating position when it comes to salaries.”

Florian Teichmeister
Architecture Lecturer

“I keep forgetting the projects and the mechanisms. A lot of old experience and tests are lost in history. We sometimes create 20 designs with 100 sketches and models per product line. Especially for new designers this would be highly useful as reference and guidance.“

Nisarg A.
Project Engineer

"Sometimes it takes me 2 days to come up with a design solution. An immediate answer would be highly valuable. I wait two to three days for a response from my former professor, and three weeks in forums."

Danna C.
Interior Architect

“In school you think they have taught you everything about CAD, but you have to learn it by yourself. I spend 4 years searching and trial and error to learn Grasshopper.”

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Does 3ive.ai replace a PLM or PDM system?
No. 3ive.ai is not a replacement, but rather a complement. Existing PLM, PDM and CAD systems remain the leading tools. 3ive.ai acts as an intelligent layer on top of them, ensuring that existing data becomes discoverable, comparable and reusable. The engineer is directed back to their existing workflow as quickly as possible.
How does 3ive.ai integrate into existing system landscapes?
3ive.ai connects to existing systems and operates predominantly in read-only mode. It supports multi-CAD environments and all common data sources. Existing workflows remain unchanged; usage is complementary.
Which CAD and PDM tools does 3ive.ai support?
We believe in a future where formats and conversion issues are a thing of the past. That's why we support all common CAD and PDM software, for simple file and knowledge exchange across locations, countries and companies.
How does the search differ from traditional PDM search?
Rather than rigid metadata, 3ive.ai uses a combination of smart text, image and 3D similarity search. Users find relevant components, projects or solutions even when names, terms, metadata or structures differ. The goal is not searching, but finding.
How is data security handled?
3ive.ai can be used in German or company-internal server infrastructure. Data sovereignty remains entirely with the customer. No design data is modified or used externally.
How transparent and traceable is the AI?
3ive.ai's AI works in an explainable and traceable manner. Results are based on concrete similarities, metadata and existing projects. There are no black box decisions. It's important to us that users remain in control at all times.
When is a demo call with 3ive.ai worthwhile?
A demo call is worthwhile if you and your colleagues lose a lot of time searching for old projects, similar components or decisions, company knowledge is difficult to access, and complex product structures need to be simplified. Together we'll examine whether and where 3ive.ai can deliver concrete added value in your existing environment. Without any upfront commitment.
