Inspection planning with AI
Inspection plans from the drawing. Deviations detected early.
The AI creates inspection plans directly from the drawing and detects deviations in your measurement data before parts are out of tolerance. Your team reviews and approves.

Transcript (English translation)
This video shows how the AI creates inspection plans directly from the drawing and detects deviations in your measurement data before parts are out of tolerance. Let's get started. For a new inspection plan, the AI reads the drawing, identifies dimensions, tolerances and geometric tolerances and numbers the characteristics directly in the drawing. For every characteristic, it proposes inspection method, inspection equipment and inspection frequency and marks special characteristics from the FMEA and customer requirements. Your team reviews the draft and approves it, and the inspection plan is then transferred to your CAQ system. During operation, the AI automatically takes over the measurement files from your measuring machines and shows by plant and part which characteristics are out of tolerance. If a characteristic is heading towards the tolerance limit, the AI detects the trend and warns before the limit is reached. You confirm each alert or set it to monitor, and you document permanent deviations as a concession with justification and due date.
Inspection planning
Create the inspection plan from the drawing
For every new inspection plan, the AI does the groundwork, and the approval stays with your team.
01
Read the drawing
For a new inspection plan, the AI reads the drawing, identifies dimensions, tolerances and geometric tolerances and numbers the characteristics directly in the drawing.
02
Inspection plan draft
For every characteristic, it proposes inspection method, inspection equipment and inspection frequency and marks special characteristics from the FMEA and customer requirements.
03
Approval and handover
Your team reviews the draft and approves it, and the inspection plan is then transferred to your CAQ system.
Deviation detection
Detect deviations in measurement data early
During operation, the AI keeps an eye on your measurement data by plant and part.
01
Measurement data at a glance
The AI automatically takes over the measurement files from your measuring machines and shows by plant and part which characteristics are out of tolerance.
02
Detect the trend
If a characteristic is heading towards the tolerance limit, the AI detects the trend and warns before the limit is reached.
03
Handle and document
You confirm each alert or set it to monitor, and you document permanent deviations as a concession with justification and due date.
Your result
What changes for your team.
Inspection plans created faster
The AI reads the drawing and proposes inspection method, inspection equipment and inspection frequency for every characteristic.
Special characteristics marked
Special characteristics from the FMEA and customer requirements are marked directly in the inspection plan draft.
Deviations detected early
The AI warns before a characteristic reaches the tolerance limit, and concessions are documented with justification and due date.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about inspection planning with AI
What is an inspection plan?
An inspection plan defines for every characteristic of a part how, with what and how often it is inspected. It is based on the dimensions and tolerances in the drawing as well as requirements from the FMEA and customer specifications.
Which characteristics does the AI identify in the drawing?
The AI identifies dimensions, tolerances and geometric tolerances. It numbers the characteristics directly in the drawing, and this becomes the draft of the inspection plan.
Does the AI replace our CAQ system?
No. After your team's approval, the inspection plan is transferred to your CAQ system.
Where does the measurement data come from?
The measurement data comes directly from your measuring machines. The AI automatically takes over the measurement files and evaluates them by plant and part.
How does the AI detect a deviation early?
The AI detects the trend as soon as a characteristic is heading towards the tolerance limit. It warns before the limit is reached, and your team decides on the alert.
Who decides on the inspection plan and deviations?
Your team. Your team reviews the inspection plan draft and approves it. You confirm each alert or set it to monitor, and you document permanent deviations as a concession with justification and due date.
What does AI inspection planning cost?
AI inspection planning is priced individually and based on ROI. The main price factors are the number of parts and characteristics, the number of plants and the systems to be connected. Every project starts with a free trial on your real process, and you only pay once the solution works.
How long does it take to roll out AI inspection planning?
From the first meeting to go-live takes four weeks, with process mapping and a free trial in between. Before that, our engineers connect your CAQ system and your measuring machines.
How does AI inspection planning differ from an inspection plan template or conventional CAQ software?
AI inspection planning is tailored to your processes and fully integrated into your CAQ system. With a template or conventional software, your team transfers every characteristic from the drawing by hand. The AI identifies the characteristics itself and continuously monitors your measurement data for trends.
How secure are drawings and measurement data with Aidera?
Your drawings and measurement data are protected to the highest data protection standards. Aidera is ISO 27001 certified, and Aidera GmbH is a TISAX® participant. Every customer gets a dedicated instance hosted in Germany.
Quality management
More quality solutions.
8D reports from suppliers
Your suppliers complete 8D reports in a guided portal, and the AI checks every discipline before the report reaches you. You see all complaints with status and deadlines at a glance.
Learn more8D reports for customer complaints
From your customer's complaint, the AI drafts the 8D report, including a proposal for the FMEA. Your quality team reviews, adds to it and approves.
Learn moreInitial sampling
The AI reads sampling requests, selects the right VDA or AIAG template and compiles the initial sample inspection report with all evidence. It detects missing test results and triggers the lab test.
Learn moreFMEA
For new FMEAs, the AI does the groundwork using knowledge from previous FMEAs, lessons learned and 8D reports. It adapts existing FMEAs in a targeted way, for example after an 8D report.
Learn moreSupplier visits and audits
Plan VDA 6.3 audits, line walks and full-run tests for all suppliers worldwide in one place. During the visit on the tablet, the AI proposes ratings, and actions are tracked automatically.
Learn moreQuality management overview
Aidera develops AI agents for 8D complaints, FMEA, initial sampling and supplier audits. They work in your systems and take inspection and documentation work off your team's hands.
