Can AI read the drawing correctly?
A comparison of an agentic extraction pipeline and four multimodal models on 47 engineering drawings. Dimension extraction and volumetric recovery are evaluated separately from costing.
Read the benchmarking paperA four-week plan for your first workflow.
Define the result, configure and integrate the workflow, tune real cases, and demonstrate the value with a dedicated engineer.

Test whether a correction works on new parts.
A useful learning loop must do more than fix the example in front of it.
Approve a correction with an explicit scope. Run a new matching case and a case that should not change. Verify that the correction is reused in the first and excluded from the second.
Then test cost agreement and total customer effort on parts that were not used for tuning.
