Hello, Product Hunt! I am Usama, Founder of https://inventhub.io, a platform for securely managing and collaborating on electronics design data, is excited to announce a set of tools which provide an improved way for hardware companies to manage their PCB design projects and allow early collaboration on the data of those projects — say GitHub for Hardware. It has been more than two years since we have been working in the background to build a new way to design and develop hardware products. In our new release we introduced a complete electronics product design data management and collaboration to enable true collaboration on PCB design projects. 💡Why we built Inventhub? Today, product lead times are high. Why? Because technical resources spend more than 25 percent of their time on non-value-added data management tasks. As the product grows, so does complexity around the design process. At the core of these issues is a combination of poor data management and ubiquitous process challenges. Collaboration with outside stakeholders is increasingly painful. Managing and sharing design data becomes more inefficient. Internal review and approval cycles delay production timelines. Simply put, it’s not a sustainable process for innovation at scale. Inventhub is design to help. With enhanced tools and improved processes, organizations can cut development time and cost by up to 50%, decreasing product lead time and improving team productivity. We help minimize the amount of time spent on non-design related activities and overhead by automating repetitive processes. Our platform emphasizes early communication to increase visibility and clarity within the design process. ECAD and other design data is more readily available throughout, making it even easier to collaborate with anyone, anywhere. ⚙️What do we offer: Inventhub is the first and only integrated collaboration tool for rapid electronic hardware design. Our platform acts as a collaborative engine that enhances the developer experience by eliminating unnecessary complexity and inefficiencies typical of competing solutions, which are tied to specific design tools and operate within enclosed environments. Inventhub takes an open, vendor-agnostic approach that enables innovators to work seamlessly, in the same ways and in a uniform environment, anywhere in the world. InventHub delivers proactive, actionable insights and best-in-class transparency into your data, regardless of the design tools your organization has in place, helping you build better products in less time. We have identified five distinct areas of repetition and inefficiency within the hardware design process that can be automated away. We refer to this workflow as "PaaT" (Process as a Tool), which is an optimized process that offers accelerated development. The core and heart of the platform is Git-based visual version control (see in action: https://inventhub.io/professional), and we have built 5 tools around it in process-oriented way. 1. Design Data Manager: Manage your electronics product data in centralized cloud storage and make it accessible from anywhere in the world. With git-based version control create version history with easier roll-backs. 2. Component Library Manager: Make your trusted part libraries accessible to the entire team in secure cloud. With Supply chain integration get real-time part data, life-cycle status, pricing and availability. 3. Bill of Material and Supply Chain: Create, edit and keep your BOM updated with every change in your project. With smart supply chain integration, generate cost estimates, get parts availability and order parts from one place. 4. Reviewing Utilities: Efficient design reviews can help avoid failed prototypes and excessive reworking. Use our powerful tools to conveniently compare design changes and discuss updates interactively. 5. Manufacturing Hub: Synchronize your project updates and manufacturer communication. Share releases, communicate with manufacturers, get costs estimates and place orders all in one secure place. 🚀 What’s next: We are looking to transition to a web-based circuit design tool with predictive AI. We will be introducing basic editing tools in visual viewer and tools like predicting parts in schematic designer. We will appreciate if you can test out the product and share your feedback.

This looks like github for hardware! What an amazing idea!
