PTC has introduced two new offerings from its cloud-native Onshape® computer-aided design (CAD) and product data management (PDM) platform.

Listening to market demand, the digital transformation specialist has launched Onshape AI Advisor - an intelligent, generative AI-powered assistant that enables the enhancement of design productivity and expertise.

At the same time, it has also unveiled Onshape Government - a specialised solution designed to meet the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and Export Administration Regulations (EAR) regulatory and compliance needs of US government agencies and defence contractors.

These offerings empower designers and engineers to work more efficiently, collaborate in real time, and bring high-quality products to market faster.

"Onshape Government and Onshape AI Advisor are the latest examples of us delivering on our mission of helping customers of all sizes - across all industries - transform their product development processes," said David Katzman, General Manager of Onshape and Arena at PTC.

"We're pleased to extend the benefits of cloud-native CAD and PDM to companies operating in the regulated aerospace and defence market, and we continue to make Onshape one of the most accessible and user-friendly platforms…now with added AI-driven assistance throughout the design process."

PTC's Onshape AI Advisor helps users accelerate their design process with expert, AI-powered guidance on CAD workflows, PDM best practices, and platform capabilities. Developed on Amazon Bedrock, it helps teams transition from legacy CAD, optimise designs, and improve efficiency.

Onshape Government is a purpose-built version of Onshape, designed specifically to help meet the compliance needs of US federal and state agencies, defence contractors, and organisations working on regulated projects.

Hosted on AWS GovCloud (US), it enables compliance with regulations such as ITAR and EAR while offering the same streamlined collaboration, version control and accessibility benefits that make Onshape one of the industry's fastest-growing CAD and PDM solutions.
