This manual provides technical descriptions of every feature available in Cognitive Design. Each page explains what a tool does, its inputs, its parameters, and its outputs.
If you need help building workflows, understanding application-specific processes, or learning how to use Cognitive Design for a particular engineering task, please visit the Knowledge Base homepage and search for the topic using keywords.
Cognitive Design is an automated design software that gives engineers an immediate, manufacturable starting point for their concepts. No blank CAD screen. No manual geometry rebuilding. You input your requirements for cost, performance, and sustainability, and the software generates realistic concepts ready for evaluation.
It guides engineers through design-to-cost, design-to-performance, and design-to-sustainability decisions with built-in manufacturing intelligence. Concepts are created, optimized, and adapted automatically using our implicit-geometry engine and AI-powered exploration tools.
You compare iterations, review KPIs, and choose the best option with clarity. Once selected, the concept exports seamlessly into CAD for final refinement.
Cognitive Design removes repetitive work, accelerates product development, and offers a smarter way to explore design options. Faster concepts. Better decisions. Manufacturable from day one.
Cognitive Design’s node-based interface lets engineers build parametric workflows and automate repetitive steps. It speeds up design tasks by reusing parameters and logic across projects, keeping iterations fast and consistent.
