Authentise ThreadsDoc tackles engineering docs with AI

88 0

Authentise has launched ThreadsDoc, a generative AI extension to its Threads engineering collaboration platform to automate the generation of templated documents using rich data from engineering collaborations.

Developed with the support of Boeing, ThreadsDoc is designed to enhance a wide range of use cases, including Technical Data Packages, Risk Assessments, Milestone/Project Reports, Onboarding Briefings, and more.

‘Built-in intelligence’ helps the tool evaluate the completeness of a draft document, says Authentise, helping identifying areas where content may be lacking or weak. In these cases, the system can automatically suggest creating new Threads to engage relevant experts and collaborators in the process.

By bringing the right team together to address gaps, Threads enables users to build stronger documents and quickly generate a new draft based on the improved inputs, the company says.

Built on the Threads platform, ThreadsDoc integrates the wealth of content generated by engineering teams – from conversations and chats to annotated 3D models and uploaded documents. The result is a draft document that allows users to avoid the typical manual work involved in generating technical documents.

Boeing has already benefited from the tool by drastically reducing the time required to generate Technical Data Packages (TDPs) by up-to 150 hours per project, to clear a backlog of over 100 parts.

“The launch of ThreadsDoc represents a significant step forward in accelerating engineering workflows,” said Authentise CEO Andre Wegner.

“By automating the generation of reports from the data already present in engineering discussions and files, we are helping organisations unlock time savings and reduce friction. This is the way to get engineers focused on the most creative tasks and provide all future stakeholders with an easy way to access the work done.”

In the future, Wegner concludes, every product won’t simply include designs, “but automated reports that describe the thinking and intent behind the designs.”

Beyond Technical Data Packages, ThreadsDoc supports documentation needs, such as risk analysis reports, milestone or project reports and onboarding briefings

The newly released ThreadsAPI, empowers enterprises, students, and innovators to develop custom add-ons within Threads, addressing unique challenges and optimising specific workflows.
