Wara

What is Wara?

Wara connects AI agents such as Claude to electronic design automation tools through the Model Context Protocol, so hardware engineers can ask questions about a design and get help without leaving the EDA environment. It reads the state of an open project and supports concrete tasks: reviewing design rules, validating schematics, verifying connections, organizing component libraries, drafting technical documentation and handing off repetitive review work. In the Altium workflow, an engineer can ask which parts have no manufacturer part number or whether designators clash, then have the agent suggest or apply fixes, with every change previewed first and saving only when allowed. Wara positions itself as a layer on top of existing tools, not a new EDA suite, and the engineer makes the final decision on each action. The Altium integration is labeled alpha, unofficial and not affiliated with Altium. No pricing is published, and the vendor is onboarding a small group of hardware teams in 2026.

Use cases

• Review PCB designs for rule violations
• Validate schematics before review
• Find missing or conflicting part numbers
• Organize component libraries
• Draft technical documentation
• Bulk-edit part parameters from a CSV

Who it's for

• Hardware engineers
• PCB designers
• Electronics teams

Why use Wara

• Brings AI review into the EDA tools engineers already use, with no new suite to learn.
• Every edit can be previewed first, and saving the project happens only if you allow it.
• Catches missing part numbers and clashing designators before a BOM goes out.
• Works over MCP, so it is not tied to one proprietary tool or one AI assistant.
• Cuts routine checking time so engineers can focus on design decisions.

Wara features

• Design rule review as the design changes
• Schematic validation that flags inconsistencies and missing components
• Connection and net verification
• Plain-language part search such as all 0603 caps
• BOM summary that can be copied as CSV
• Audit of missing or conflicting manufacturer part numbers
• Detection of duplicate or unannotated designators
• Parameter edits across one part or hundreds, previewed before applying
• Move and rotate parts on the PCB

Wara integrations

• Altium
• KiCad
• OrCAD
• Claude

How to get started with Wara

1. Open a project in your EDA tool and connect an AI agent through Wara's MCP layer.
2. Ask for a review in plain language, for example which parts on a sheet have no part number.
3. Wara reads the parts and design data from the open session and flags problems.
4. Approve the suggested changes after previewing them, and they appear in your design.
5. Save the project yourself when you are satisfied.

Wara limitations

• The Altium integration is in alpha and the vendor warns to expect rough edges
• Unofficial and not affiliated with Altium
• Access is limited to a small cohort of teams in 2026
• Pricing is not published
