Developer of AI-assisted electronics design platform, Celus, has entered into a partnership with PCB manufacturing and assembly service provider, NextPCB, to address the electronics development lifecycle from concept to mass production.
“This partnership with NextPCB gives engineers a direct bridge from intelligent design creation to trusted manufacturing. Together, we are enabling a faster, more reliable path from concept to production that will dramatically accelerate time to market for our customers,” said Tobias Pohl, Celus CEO and co-founder.
NextPCB users will gain access to the Celus Design Platform for seamless idea creation, intelligent component selection and automatic schematic generation. By integrating Celus automation with NextPCB’s advanced production capabilities, engineers can move from design to manufacturing faster and with greater reliability. The result is a simplified, end-to-end workflow that reduces manual effort, minimizes supply chain risks and accelerates time to market.
The Celus Design Platform enables engineers to design by entering system requirements or a simple text prompt, transforming high-level technical requirements into validated schematic prototypes in hours instead of weeks. Powered by its proprietary CUBO knowledge base, Celus automates the selection of optimal, compatible components and provides real-time insights into pricing, lifecycle status and availability that help engineers proactively mitigate risks, such as obsolescence or supply disruption before procurement.
Celus ensures compatibility with downstream processes by generating industry-standard Bill of Materials (BOM) files and offering native export capabilities to leading EDA tools. This seamless integration enables engineers to transition effortlessly from design to layout and then directly into NextPCB’s one-stop manufacturing solutions, including instant quoting, rapid PCB fabrication, reliable component sourcing and high-quality assembly.
