Product knowledge that stays in the company
Colleag.ai structures documentation, requirements, and change history for the products you own, from development through maintenance. When people leave, the knowledge stays searchable and usable.
What teams should expect
Directional targets based on workflow analysis. We validate these with you during the pilot, on your products, not generic demos.

of critical product knowledge stays after someone leaves
Less administration. More engineering.
Less tribal knowledge. More company memory.
Less PLM fear. More product control.
Built by product people
Domain knowledge first, not generic AI
Colleag.ai comes from CargoBeacon's years of building and maintaining real hardware products. Faces, experience, and judgement. Not a faceless AI wrapper.
Olov Hisved
Co-founder CargoBeacon · CEO, Colleag.ai
Has built and led engineering organizations for 15+ years. Saw the same pattern everywhere: product knowledge trapped in heads and folders. Started Colleag.ai to turn that into a lasting company asset.
Daniel
Co-builder · Product & platform
Works on how teams actually use Colleag.ai day to day, from document trees and editing to AI assistance that feels as natural as Cursor, but usable for non-technical product roles.
“Brilliant engineers should spend their time on the product, not chasing documents across SharePoint, Excel, and email.”
Small teams. Large product outcomes.
Three steps to get value — without changing how you work
Start with one product. See results before you scale. No rip-and-replace of PLM or ERP.
Share one product's documents
You choose a bounded product and share existing documentation. CargoBeacon sets it up in Colleag.ai — structured, searchable, and versioned.
See what the system returns
Within days you can find decisions, requirements, and change context that used to live in folders, inboxes, and people's heads.
Grow with your team
Add more product information and a few users. AI drafts documentation and impact analysis; people approve. Knowledge compounds in the company.
What happens when a critical component goes end-of-life?
Change impact analysis in seconds, not weeks
Traditional change management means weeks of emails, spreadsheets, and meetings. With Colleag.ai, the moment a component status changes, every downstream impact is mapped automatically.
Discipline Awareness
Automatically identifies every engineering discipline affected by a change — mechanical, electrical, software, thermal, and more.
Document Mapping
Maps every document that references the changed component — specifications, test reports, user manuals, and compliance records.
Compliance Flagging
Flags compliance implications instantly — certifications at risk, re-qualification requirements, and regulatory filings that need updating.
Sourcing Alternatives
Surfaces alternative components with compatibility scores, lead times, and cost comparisons so your team can act fast.
Engineering documentation, generated
Stop spending 40% of engineering time on documentation. Digital colleagues generate and maintain technical documents from your engineering decisions — always current, always consistent, always traceable.
- Technical specifications and datasheets
- Test plans and verification reports
- Change orders and engineering change notices
- Compliance declarations and certification packages
- Work instructions and assembly procedures
- Bill of materials with full component intelligence
Configured for your company, not generic AI
Every digital colleague is configured with your company's specific context — your products, your components, your suppliers, your standards, your processes. This isn't a general-purpose assistant; it's a team member who knows your business.
- Trained on your SOPs and procedures
- Configured for your product architecture
- Aligned with your development methodology
- Aware of your compliance requirements
Configured for how your company already works
Colleag.ai sits beside Word, Excel, SharePoint, ERP, and CAD — it does not replace them on day one. Connectors and standards libraries are packaged as modules you add when you need them.
