Duro compressed a 4-year platform rebuild into 6 months using AI-assisted development. First Resonance cut a 2-month integration feature down to 2 days with MCP. Here is how two cloud-native PLM companies used AI to compress development timelines and change what hardware teams expect from their tools.
OpenBOM gives small and midsize hardware companies a cloud-native BOM and product data management platform that works in days rather than months. Leo AI applies artificial intelligence to optimize engineering designs against multiple objectives simultaneously — performance, cost, weight, manufacturability. Together they represent the state of the art in making product data not just accessible but actionable: a system that tells you what to do with the data, not just where to find it.
