Reimagine entire value chains with low-code
API management and AI-driven workflows
Accelerate your digital thread with governed connections to applications, AI/analytics platforms, and value-chain partner portals – on premises or in the cloud.
Connect Data Across Teams
Integrate PLM with ERP, MES, and other systems to provide a unified view for better decisions.
Accelerate Engineering Workflows
Quickly create task-specific apps to access, review, or approve designs and changes.
Streamline Value Collaboration
Build portals and micro apps for external partners to securely interact with product data.
Build Business-Ready Apps with Aras InnovatorEdge
Discover how Aras InnovatorEdge enables rapid creation of lightweight, business-ready apps that extend PLM and activate digital thread data securely.
Aras InnovatorEdge AI: Smart Variants Agent
Discover how the Smart Variants Agent uses digital thread intelligence to recommend feasible product variants and accelerate configuration decisions.
From Spreadsheet Chaos to Governed BOMs
See how the Aras BOM Import Agent helps convert supplier BOM spreadsheets into reviewed, structured part and BOM data in Aras Innovator.
Turn Specification PDFs Into Traceable Requirements
Transform dense specification PDFs into structured, traceable PLM requirements with Aras InnovatorEdge AI, helping engineering teams move faster from document review to governed execution.
Edge API
Low-code API Management for PLM
Design, secure and operate APIs that expose Aras Innovator services and digital thread data to other systems, edge apps and AI agents – without heavy custom coding.
- Low-code modeling of REST APIs across PLM objects and processes.
- Central governance: policies, keys, rate limiting and auditing.
- Ready to serve both human-facing apps and automated agents.
Ideal for connecting PLM with ERP, MES, CAD, IoT and analytics platforms through a single, well-governed gateway.
Edge Builder
Task-based Web Apps and Portals
Cloud environment for rapidly designing and hosting lightweight web apps that consume EdgeAPI services. Focus on roles and tasks – not plumbing and infrastructure.
- Reusable UI templates and components for dashboards and portals.
- Direct connection to EdgeAPI – no additional backend needed.
- Supports supplier portals, quality cockpits, engineering workspaces and more.
Give suppliers, partners and executives the experience they need, without exposing the full PLM UI.
Edge AI
Agentic AI for the Digital Thread
Services for designing, running and governing AI agents that act on PLM and enterprise data. Combine retrieval, workflows and LLM orchestration with clear guardrails.
- Discovery agents that analyze product configurations and history.
- Enrichment agents that link data across PLM, ERP, IoT and documents.
- Amplification agents that propose or automate next best actions.
Move from isolated chatbots to AI that understands your products, configurations, changes and lifecycle context.
How Aras InnovatorEdge fits into the Aras Cloud Platform
Aras InnovatorEdge builds on the openness of Aras Innovator. Your product data, processes and AI-native digital thread remain governed inside the core platform, while Aras InnovatorEdge services make them consumable everywhere else.
- Aras Product Data Platform extends the digital thread across domains
- Composable PLM applications model engineering and lifecycle processes
- Low-code services continuously adapt as product lifecycles evolve
- Aras InnovatorEdge exposes capabilities to the enterprise via APIs, applications and AI
From APIs to apps to AI agents
Aras InnovatorEdge enables a simple flow – from exposing capabilities as APIs, to creating focused apps, to adding AI agents that assist users or automate tasks.
Step 1 - Edge API
Expose PLM capabilities as governed APIs
Model change management, BOM queries, requirements or quality workflows as reusable APIs. Apply policies and access control that align with your governance model.
Step 2 - Edge Builder
Create task-centric experiences
Assemble web apps or portals for suppliers, engineers, quality managers or executives, using EdgeAPI endpoints as the data and action layer.
Step 3 - Edge AI
Augment users with AI agents
Add AI agents that monitor data, propose actions or execute workflows behind the scenes, triggered from your Edge apps or enterprise systems.
Built for Enterprise and DevOps
Aras InnovatorEdge is designed to coexist with your existing cloud, security and DevOps practices. It leverages the same openness that defines Aras Innovator.
- Cloud-native deployment is aligned with your infrastructure strategy
- CI/CD pipelines are supported for Aras Innovator and InnovatorEdge apps
- Central identity and access are managed across Aras Innovator, InnovatorEdge and AI services
- Concerns are clearly separated between the PLM platform, integrations and experiences
