PCBEDITOR / AI MODEL

Fortza. Text to PCB.

PCBEditor's AI model for electronics design. Today it creates the component data every board depends on. Next, it carries a design from a sentence to a manufactured board.

We're building the first model that goes from text to a physical board: prompt, schematic, layout, then the fabrication machines.

What Fortza does in PCBEditor

  • Footprints. Turns a part number and its datasheet into a land pattern you can inspect and edit.
  • BGA ball maps. Reads a package's pin table and links every ball position to the signal it carries.
  • Pin and package interpretation. Reads datasheets so a part is wired by its real pins, not by a guess.
  • Works with PCBEditor's agents. The agents that plan, wire and review your board use the component data Fortza creates.

Everything Fortza creates is shown to you for review before it is used, with the datasheet it came from.

THE DIFFERENCE

The same board, with and without Fortza

A 98-ball, 0.5 mm-pitch BGA microcontroller whose ball map our library did not have. Same prompt, same 40 × 40 mm board, shown as the layout and in 3D.

A 40 by 40 mm PCB with no microcontroller: the surrounding parts are placed but have nothing to connect toThe same board without the microcontroller in 3D: passives, a regulator, a crystal, a header and a USB-C connector with an empty centre
Without FortzaThe chip's ball map could not be verified, so PCBEditor left the chip off rather than guess its pins. The parts around it have nothing to connect to.
The same 40 by 40 mm PCB with the BGA microcontroller placed at the centre and fully routedThe same board in 3D with the BGA microcontroller at the centre and its parts wired around it
With FortzaThe ball map was read from the manufacturer's datasheet and every ball matches its pin table. The chip is placed and wired, and the 6-layer board routes completely with 0 design-rule errors.

Real captures from PCBEditor, not mock-ups. The layouts differ because each run places only the parts it can connect.
