In mechanical engineering, the value of AI is determined by context. Generic AI tools sit outside the CAD, PDM, and PLM systems where engineering work happens, producing plausible suggestions for problems they do not understand. bananaz takes a different approach. As an agentic layer running natively inside the engineering stack, bananaz orchestrates specialized AI agents that read native CAD geometry, BOMs, and PDM revision history, then act on designs the way a senior engineer would. Co-authored with AWS, this article breaks down how bananaz on AWS executes DFM checks, intelligent change analysis, custom rule enforcement, and automated report generation at scale, and how one medical device company cut drawing review time by up to 80% on FDA-regulated documentation.
