What is Neurocad?

Neurocad is the intent synthesizer for physical engineering. It converts datasheets, PDFs, reference designs, and images into native, parametric, design-ready assets in the tools your team already uses — Altium, Cadence, SolidWorks, and Autodesk — with zero re-entry and human-in-control checkpoints at every step. No intermediate formats. No manual reconstruction. The AI describes. The kernel executes.

How Neurocad works

Neurocad is a vendor-agnostic intent synthesizer that converts static engineering files — datasheets, drawings, schematics, images — into native, parametric, design-ready assets inside Altium, Cadence, and KiCad through a reusable visual workflow called a Recipe. No format conversion. No manual reconstruction. The AI describes. The kernel executes.

Getting started

Download and install Neurocad Link

Neurocad Link is a desktop companion app that maintains a live connection between Neurocad and installed CAD applications including Altium, Cadence, SolidWorks, Fusion 360, and Inventor. When a recipe completes, Neurocad Link fetches the asset and delivers it directly into the active tool — no file download, no manual import, no save-and-reopen. Zero re-entry at the desktop boundary.

Recovery phrase

Your Neurocad account is protected by two layers of security — your account credentials and a recovery phrase. This page explains how both work and what to do if you lose access.

Recipes

Using nodes

Nodes are the building blocks of every Neurocad recipe. This guide covers how to add, connect, and configure them to build workflows that move engineering data from source to native CAD asset.

Getting started

Send to desktop node

The Send to Desktop node pushes finished recipe outputs directly to Altium, Cadence, Fusion, SolidWorks, or Inventor. Set up your machine, check the connection status, and dispatch — no manual import needed.

Recipe automations

Deploying a recipe turns it into a server-side automation that runs without manual input. This guide covers how to configure, deploy, and manage automated recipe workflows in Neurocad.

Neurocad Link and how it works

Neurocad Link pushes finished designs straight into Altium, SolidWorks, Fusion, Inventor, and Cadence the moment a recipe finishes. No download, no manual import, no "save then reopen." Install it once, sign in with your Neurocad account, and your desktop becomes the final step in the pipeline.
