What is AllSpice?

AllSpice is a hardware development platform for teams that need better design reviews, clearer revision history, and repeatable release workflows.

It gives electrical engineering teams one place to collaborate on schematics and PCB layouts, track design changes, run automated checks, and keep review decisions tied to the design data.

What problems AllSpice solves

Hardware teams often lose time when review work is scattered across email threads, chat messages, screenshots, and local files. That creates gaps in traceability and slows handoffs.

AllSpice is designed to reduce those gaps by keeping review context and design history in one system.

The core parts of AllSpice

Revision control for hardware design files

AllSpice helps teams manage design history with repository workflows, commit tracking, and release tracking.

Teams can see what changed, when it changed, and why it changed, without relying on tribal knowledge.

In-browser design collaboration

Reviewers can inspect schematics and PCB layouts in the browser, leave contextual comments, and compare changes with visual diffs.

This keeps feedback attached to the exact area of the design under review.

Automation for repeatable engineering workflows

AllSpice supports automation workflows that run checks and generate outputs such as review reports, BOM files, and release packages.

Automation helps teams make review and release steps more consistent as projects scale.

AI-assisted first-pass review with DRCY

DRCY runs first-pass checkson real design context and datasheets to surface potential issues earlier in the review cycle.

DRCY is not a replacement for engineer judgment. Findings are intended to be reviewed and validated by the team before sign-off.

How teams use AllSpice in practice

Most teams follow a pattern like this:

1. Upload or sync a design into AllSpice.
2. Review schematics and PCB layouts in the browser.
3. Capture comments, issues, and approvals in context.
4. Run automation and DRCY first-pass checks.
5. Iterate with a clear record of decisions and design changes.
6. Prepare release outputs from the same tracked workflow.

Who AllSpice is for

AllSpice is commonly used by:

• Electrical engineers and PCB designers
• Hardware design reviewers and approvers
• Engineering managers standardizing review process
• Cross-functional teams that need hardware project visibility
