XKEMA – Hardware Documentation Control
Hardware product lifecycle management XKEMA

Your hardware projects connected and traceable

Bring together in a single platform the functionality of SAP, SVN and DOORS: document management, schematic versioning, requirements management and a connected component library.

Ideal for teams that already have products in development, validation or in the field.

Video pitch

XKEMA in 120 seconds.

Discover how XKEMA eliminates rework, centralizes hardware documentation and keeps your whole team aligned around a single source of truth.

Note: in this video you can see what it is like to work inside XKEMA: browse projects, review boards, consult components and understand the real state of a design in seconds.

Direct benefits

Immediate advantages of using XKEMA.

Simplicity and efficiency from day one.

Everything in one place

Requirements, schematics, BOMs and technical documentation in a single application. One system for the whole team.

Everything connected

Smart documents linking schematics, BOMs, requirements and design decisions. Full end-to-end traceability, travel back in time in a single click.

Frictionless

Less searching, fewer errors, more design. Organized and connected information so the team can focus on building better products. Fluid interface, with no friction or unnecessary learning curve.

Inside the app

Central library, component viewer and Gerber viewer.

This is what XKEMA looks like inside: a central library for browsing and searching, a unified page per reference and an integrated Gerber viewer to review boards without leaving the environment.

Central Library
Navigation
Central Library — app interface

Central library

Clear categories, fast search and a single entry point to all the team’s hardware.

  • Structure by classes and subclasses.
  • Unified search by reference.
  • Direct access to pages and documents.
Element Viewer
Page
Element Viewer — component/board page

Unified page

Key data, relationships and documentation in a single panel: fewer tabs, fewer “which one was the right one?”.

  • Product details and status (lifecycle / status).
  • Related elements and hierarchy.
  • Specs, documents and notes.
Gerber Viewer
PCB
Gerber Viewer — layer viewer

Gerber viewer

Review layers and details without changing tools: the design context stays with you.

  • Visibility control by layer.
  • Quick view for review and support.
  • Integrated into the documentation workflow.

Use cases

Where XKEMA fits best.

XKEMA adds value when hardware stops being an isolated experiment and starts to grow: more versions, more people and more decisions that need context.

Hardware startups

Fast growth and constant iterations.

It lets you move faster and with less friction: less rework and a scalable product

R&D

Prototypes, testing and failures. Solved!

It enables fast changes without losing control: revisions, BOM and technical decisions always aligned with an agile workflow.

PCB manufacturing

Serial production and multiple revisions.

It ensures manufacturing always uses the correct version: final Gerbers, approved BOM and changes traced by revision and customer.

Early access · Selected teams

If your documentation is a bottleneck, you are not going to fix it with another spreadsheet.

XKEMA is in the early adoption phase, with teams that want to bring order without slowing development. If you want to see whether it fits your context, the next step is simple.

No spam. No weird commitments. Just an honest conversation about whether XKEMA can save work for your team.

Inside the app

Explore XKEMA in a real context.

Access a real XKEMA viewer to browse components, review technical information and understand how work flows inside the platform.

  • Check datasheets and relationships between elements.
  • Review technical information without changing tools.

Open the viewer full size to interact with the app and understand how XKEMA fits into your daily workflow.

How it works

The speed of knowing where things are

XKEMA does not replace Altium, KiCad or your CAD tool. It sits on top to provide structure. projects, teams, boards, PCBs, BOMs, requirements and decisions are connected and centralized in a database.

Instead of chasing files, consult a single view to understand what exists, what is missing and what is out of sync.

1 Create your space

Define projects, teams and your configuration elements: boards, modules, components, etc.

2 Link your files

Upload key documents and link schematics, BOMs and requirements together.

3 Work from the same place

Use XKEMA as the starting point to review project status and make design decisions.

In the first project, duplicated versions, orphaned documentation and unrecorded decisions usually appear. XKEMA helps you detect it all at a glance.

Frequently asked questions

What you usually ask before taking the next step.

If you made it this far, you have probably already suffered some of these problems. These answers help you better understand what role XKEMA can play in your workflow: what changes, what does not change and what you gain.

If you prefer, we can review it with a real project and tell you in 15 minutes whether it fits or not.
Does XKEMA replace my design tool (Altium, KiCad, etc.)?
No. XKEMA does not draw schematics or PCBs. It integrates as a layer of organization and traceability on top of your current tools, connecting documentation, BOMs, requirements and decisions in a coherent workflow.
Do we need to migrate our whole project history for it to make sense?
No. The normal approach is to start with a live project (new design, redesign or critical project) and use it as a pilot. As soon as the team sees fewer doubts, less wasted time and less rework, they usually add the rest of the projects by priority.
What type of company is XKEMA most suitable for?
It fits teams managing multiple revisions, parallel products and long hardware lifecycles: electronic equipment manufacturers, R&D teams with multiple product lines and teams where documentation tends to degrade over time.
Can we see it applied to our specific case?
Yes. The most useful way to evaluate it is to map a real project: what documentation you have, where it hurts today and what you would gain by working with a clear version, a controlled BOM and decisions with recoverable context.
