Mapping columns and retyping drawings is a hidden tax.
OpenBOM now uses AI to read PDF drawings and turn them into structured product data. The future of import is understanding.

Give suppliers and contractors scoped data access with Read-Only + By View, no extra Core licenses.
Plus a better Where Used, a sortable Users Dashboard, and CAD fixes.

Typing part numbers from CAD into a spreadsheet is how typos end up in purchase orders. "OpenBOM eliminates the need for us to manually type part numbers and file names from SolidWorks into spreadsheets." 👉 g2.com/products/openbom/revi… bit.ly/4yZAShG
Every system can be right and the build still slips.
A blocker is two answers that were never checked against each other: parts, sourcing, lead times, routing.

Pipelines rebuild context from scratch on every run, then forget it.
A Product Context Graph remembers. Review builds context. Agents put it to work. Decisions write it back.

Thumbnails, PDF drawings, 3D files, and viewers, all tied to the same item and change record.
Reviewers see what's changing before they sign off.

Your shop floor and suppliers don't need CAD licenses. They need the current revision.
Free read-only access to BOMs, drawings, and 3D: fewer screenshots, fewer arguments about which file is right.

Products are rarely one BOM. They're several BOMs that need to work as one. "Ease of use and how easy it is to integrate different BOMS together" 👉 g2.com/products/openbom/revi… bit.ly/3VkgRmH
Launch delays rarely start at launch. They start with an assumption nobody verified.
By the time someone asks "are we ready?", the decisions that protect the date may already be overdue.

Edit together in real time. Track every change automatically. Freeze revisions when it's time to release.
One foundation for humans and AI agents working side by side.

In medical devices, the BOM's history matters as much as its current state. "Support for alternates, BOM history and revision control. Easy manipulation of exported Altium BOM." 👉 g2.com/products/openbom/revi… bit.ly/4y2MVZW
Adopting OpenBOM isn't all-or-nothing.
Start with one assembly and one real problem. Add collaboration, change control, purchasing, and ERP as you need them.

PLM doesn't have to be expensive, rigid, or a year-long implementation. "Very user-friendly and customizable, and overall easy to use." 👉 g2.com/products/openbom/revi… bit.ly/4y1GI02
Automating a broken workflow just makes it break faster.
With BOM Review, rules belong to software, judgment to people, and AI bridges the two in one shared context.

Most blockers were visible before they became obvious, scattered across BOMs, drawings, and supplier confirmations.
Connect the records and the warning shows up in time.

When you pick software, you're also picking the team behind it. "Good flexibility on the platform. Very committed developer team. Strong and courteous support." 👉 g2.com/products/openbom/revi… bit.ly/476wLDJ
Skip the big-bang rollout.
Pick one workflow, prepare its data, review it together, test the next task, and let results decide where to expand.
👉 openbom.com/blog/getting-sta… bit.ly/4y6yKTw
"OpenBOM has proven to be an invaluable tool in our product development and manufacturing processes — the intuitive drag-and-drop functionality allows for seamless manipulation of BOM structures." 👉 g2.com/products/openbom/revi… bit.ly/4pXIqxh
Without shared product context, AI agents just rebuild old file handoffs at machine speed.
The foundation comes first. Don't pass context, preserve it.

"BOM_v7_final_REAL.xlsx" is a problem that should have stopped existing years ago. "It's an online database where everything is saved for me, so I don't have to worry about maintaining static versions of Excel files." 👉 g2.com/products/openbom/revi… bit.ly/4y1GDJM
