About Stillwind
Summary
Stillwind builds AI tools for electrical engineers. Its first product, Stillwind Search, lets engineers find electronic components by typing natural-language queries, which the engine converts into precise specifications matched against a database of millions of parts. A second product corrects PCB component libraries at scale, processing footprints directly from datasheets and manufacturer drawings to replace the manual, error-prone work that causes production failures.
Business model
A fee for footprint correction delivered as a service, with Stillwind Search available to try directly.
Go-to-market
Electrical engineering teams at hardware companies are the buyers; Stillwind Search is self-serve, while the footprint correction service is engaged by submitting a component library directly to the team.

Autonomous Electrical Engineering
Our first product, Stillwind Search, makes finding an electronic part as easy as writing a text message. The search engine turns natural language queries into fine-grained specifications that are matched against our proprietary database of millions of parts. This is the first step towards autonomous electrical engineering.
