Welcome to the Compass public beta.

Compass is an engineering tool for hardware, software, and services design. From concept exploration to implementation, Compass will enable you to do what you do best, design your product. Compass is designed to maximize your productivity with a fast underlying implementation that won't keep you waiting.

Compass integrates design information into modules. These modules follow industry accepted practices with an easy to use interface. Compass is designed from the ground up with expansion in mind and future versions of Compass will cover both hardware and software design methodologies. Compass is flexible in that you can use as much or little of Compass's features as you need on a per project basis.
