DATA BOUNDARIES • LOCAL-FIRST • CUSTOMER CONTROL
Private engineering knowledge should stay under customer control.
Stratic Systems is being designed so organizations can capture CAD structure, analyze geometry, preserve knowledge, and improve workflows without surrendering sensitive engineering files.
DEP can operate as a local or private Knowledge Store for customer drawings, CAD data, documents, extracted records, corrections, lessons learned, and company-specific rules.
SIMPLE PRINCIPLE
Separate private engineering knowledge from approved system communication.
The goal is simple: protect the customer's sensitive files and internal knowledge while still allowing approved, non-sensitive system activity to support licensing, updates, status, coordination, and future optional workflows.
CADSYNC
Capture layer
CADSync extracts engineering structure from CAD systems without requiring raw proprietary CAD files to be uploaded to Stratic Cloud.
GEOMETRYLAB
Analysis layer
GeometryLab analyzes normalized geometry signals and recognition outputs that can remain inside the customer-controlled environment.
DEP
Private Knowledge Store
DEP stores validated engineering knowledge, documents, rules, corrections, lessons learned, and traceable company memory close to the customer.
WHAT CAN REMAIN LOCAL
Sensitive files do not need to leave the customer environment.
CAD files and drawings
Inventor, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, customer drawings, vendor files, models, geometry, and proprietary engineering packages.
Documents and evidence
PDFs, Word documents, Excel files, manuals, reports, specifications, inspection evidence, photos, and internal records.
Financial and customer data
Pricing, quotes, purchase orders, customer records, vendor details, internal costs, and sensitive business information.
DEP memory
Local extraction results, company rules, manual overrides, lessons learned, reasoning, evidence, review history, and trusted knowledge.
Private server data
Organizations can keep DEP inside a local network, private server, or controlled deployment environment.
Restricted environments
DEP is intended to support environments where cloud access is restricted, controlled, unavailable, or intentionally disabled.
WHAT CAN COMMUNICATE
Cloud communication should be approved, structured, and limited.
Stratic Cloud does not need raw private CAD files or proprietary documents for the local product family to function. Cloud services can support approved metadata and system-level activity where the customer allows it.
Licensing and access
License checks, organization access, product activation, user permissions, and authorized deployment status.
System health
Heartbeats, version status, sync state, update availability, connector status, and non-sensitive operational telemetry.
Approved metadata
Counts, IDs, timestamps, event types, correction categories, workflow status, and summaries approved for cloud use.
Configuration
Rule packs, deployment settings, customer-controlled update delivery, and non-sensitive product configuration.
Optional coordination
Dashboards, status visibility, organization-level activity, support context, and customer-approved shared records.
No raw file requirement
Stratic Cloud should not require private CAD files, drawings, financial records, or proprietary documents to be uploaded for DEP to function.
CUSTOMER CONTROL
The customer controls what crosses the boundary.
Stratic is being designed around a clear boundary between private knowledge and connected services. CADSync, GeometryLab, and DEP can preserve knowledge locally, while cloud services can support approved communication and customer-controlled coordination.
Local-first option
DEP can operate without sending sensitive knowledge to the cloud.
Private deployment option
DEP can be deployed inside controlled customer infrastructure where needed.
Approved sync model
Cloud communication should be based on approved structured events, not automatic uploading of private files.
TRUST MODEL
DEP protects the knowledge. Cloud services support the system.
DEP is the private Knowledge Store. Cloud services can support licensing, coordination, update delivery, visibility, and approved metadata without becoming the required home for private engineering files.
Protect private data while preserving organizational knowledge.
Stratic Systems is designed for organizations that need CAD intelligence, part recognition, continuity, and knowledge preservation without giving up control of sensitive engineering files.
