Hierarchical capture
Multi-sheet schematics with reusable blocks, live net naming, and cross-probing straight into layout.
REV 4.0 · CONSTRAINT-AWARE ROUTING
Schematic-first PCB design, from concept to copper.
TraceWorks unifies hierarchical capture, constraint management, and review in one version-controlled workspace — so your board spins right the first time.
CORE MODULES
Everything between idea and artwork
Constraint-aware nets
Tag impedance, length, and class rules on the schematic — every net carries its intent downstream.
Automated review
ERC and DRC run on every commit, with inline annotations your whole team can act on.
SIGNAL PATH
From idea to artwork in three stages
Capture
Draw sheets and drop parts from a 120k-component library while net names manage themselves.
Constrain
Attach voltage classes and matched-length rules once; they propagate everywhere the net travels.
Release
Export fab-ready netlists, BOM, and docs as one signed revision — traceable forever.
TEST POINTS
Measured, trusted, shipped
“DRC surprises on our first spin dropped 70%. The constraint pass catches mistakes I used to hunt with a multimeter.”
Hardware Lead · Fieldline Robotics
“Design review went from a two-day email thread to a one-hour call. Annotating on the schematic itself is a superpower.”

Frequently asked questions
Can I import an existing KiCad or Altium project?
Yes. TraceWorks imports KiCad, Altium, and Eagle schematics with 98%+ net fidelity — and you can export back out at any time.
Does the free Prototype tier expire?
Never. Three private projects, full ERC, and the community library stay free. Upgrade only when you need the constraint engine.
How does version control handle merges?
Every save is a commit. Conflicts resolve net-by-net in a visual diff, so two engineers can branch and merge a schematic like code.
