What Tomachie does

Tomachie, LLC operates a self-serve, AI-assisted PCB schematic design review platform that accepts native Altium, KiCad, and OrCAD schematic files (OrCAD marked as coming soon). The platform runs generative design-for-test (DFT) analysis, automatically inserting test points directly into native schematic files to hit user-specified fault-coverage or PCOLA-SOQ targets, and produces a 10,000+ word design review document covering design overview, power analysis, functional analysis, EMC/ESD, HSSI, memory bus, JTAG chain validation against BSDL files, and PCOLA-SOQ scoring with letter grades (A-F). Boundary scan fault coverage is predicted for AXI, AOI, ICT, Flying Probe, and IEEE 1149.x methods. The company is a sister company to Intellitech Corporation, whose team has 25+ years of PCB automated test equipment experience and led or authored major portions of IEEE 1149.x standards.

Distribution is 100% web-based self-serve with no account creation required: users upload a ZIP of schematics and receive results via an emailed link valid for 30 days. The website is available in 25+ languages and is hosted in a SOC 2 Type II certified U.S. data center, with an optional client-side AES-256 encryption path using OpenSSL.

Revenue mechanics are predominantly freemium. Standard schematic analysis is free, while paid add-ons include Private Encryption ($10/upload), Custom CDA Agreement ($500), Security Review Support ($900), and AI Assist in three tiers (Economy, Standard, Premium). The company is privately held with no disclosed venture funding or institutional investment, no direct sales team, no channel partners, and no published headcount. Customer segments include individual hardware engineers globally and regulated manufacturers in aerospace, defense, automotive, and industrial electronics.

Revenue model

1. Standard Schematic Analysis: Free basic analysis of uploaded PCB schematics with DFT, JTAG validation, and ERC checks. Users receive a 10,000+ word design review document delivered via email link valid for 30 days.
2. Private Encryption Token: AES-256 encryption service for secure uploads. Files are encrypted before leaving the user's facility and remain encrypted at rest on servers. Key is ephemeral and never stored. Priced at $10 per upload.
3. Custom CDA Agreement: Custom Confidential Disclosure Agreement for organizations requiring privacy terms beyond the standard CDA. Includes custom legal terms and 5-business-day review period. Priced at $500.
4. Security Review Support: Vendor security assessment support including questionnaires, documentation, and follow-up responses to support customer's security team evaluation. Priced at $900.
5. AI Assist Analysis: Optional AI-assisted mode for deeper insights on functionality, noise, filters, and other design considerations. Available in Economy, Standard, and Premium modes with varying analysis depth. Three tiers: Economy (lower-cost model), Standard, Premium (deepest analysis).

Core offering

Tomachie provides an AI-assisted PCB schematic design review service that runs schematic captures through generative Design-for-Test (DFT) analysis, automatic test point insertion, PCOLA-SOQ scoring, and semantic auditing. The core analysis is free, with paid add-ons for private encryption, custom CDAs, and security review support. Outputs are aimed at hardware engineers and electronics manufacturers needing fast, independent testability assessment before committing to board layout.

Emerging players

• National Instruments (NI): Test/measurement platform provider addressing electronics manufacturing test with modular instrumentation and software-defined test. Comparable customer base in aerospace/defense/industrial electronics manufacturing test workflows.

Broad incumbents

• Zuken: PCB and electrical design software vendor (CR-8000, eCADSTAR) serving automotive, aerospace, and industrial electronics. Comparable end-market overlap and potential competitor through design-rule and verification features.
• Synopsys: Major EDA vendor whose DesignWare DFT, TestMax, and boundary-scan IP/flows target IC and PCB testability. Adjacent competitor at the DFT/IP level, with far broader portfolio but overlapping fault-coverage and JTAG-related capabilities.
• Keysight Technologies: Test and measurement vendor with ICT, flying probe, and boundary-scan products used at the same manufacturing test stage that Tomachie's DFT output targets. Comparable buyer audience, with broader instrumentation portfolio.
• Cadence Design Systems: Owner of OrCAD and Allegro PCB tools plus the Modus DFT software family for board-level and IC DFT. Could natively compete with Tomachie by integrating AI-assisted schematic review into OrCAD/Capture workflows.
• Siemens EDA (Tessent): EDA division of Siemens offering the Tessent family of DFT and boundary-scan tools for IC and board-level test. Competes on the same design-for-test and test-coverage optimization workflow but as part of a much broader EDA portfolio.
• Altium: Primary commercial PCB schematic/layout tool whose native file format (.SchDoc/.PrjPcb) Tomachie parses. Competes through built-in ERC/DRC and Altium 365 cloud collaboration, and could ship comparable AI review features natively.

Direct peers

• JTAG Technologies: Long-standing vendor of boundary-scan and JTAG testing tools targeting aerospace, defense, automotive, and industrial electronics manufacturers. Comparable technology scope (BSDL, test point insertion, ICT/flying probe integration) and similar end-customer profile.
• ASSET InterTech (part of Rehm Thermal Systems): Provider of boundary-scan (JTAG/IEEE 1149.x) test and validation tools for PCBs, including DFT analysis and test coverage reporting. Direct overlap with Tomachie's PCOLA-SOQ scoring, BSDL-based JTAG validation, and fault-coverage prediction features.
• Intellitech Corporation: Sister/parent organization to Tomachie providing PCB automated test equipment, IEEE 1149.x boundary-scan tools, and DFT/Boundary-Scan services. Most directly comparable in domain expertise, customer base (aerospace/defense/automotive/industrial manufacturers), and underlying technology stack.
