The End-to-End Platform for
PPAP Generation & Review
Whether you are a supplier generating complex PFMEAs and Dimensional Reports, or an OEM structurally validating incoming submission packages against master specifications—Doc AI creates a perfect, audit-ready ecosystem.

Automated PPAP Generation
Stop manually ballooning prints and hunting for inspection specs. Upload your 2D drawing, and Doc AI instantly extracts dimensions, GD&T, and tolerances.
- Auto-Ballooning & ISIR Extraction
- Pre-populates PFMEA & Control Plans
- Centralized Process Library Integration
Intelligent Factual Review
Eliminate clerical checking. Upload your master prints, POs, and specs as the "Source of Truth," and let the AI audit the supplier's incoming submission package.
- Flags missing or mismatched documents
- Cross-references Supplier ISIR vs Master Print
- Validates MTR properties against ASTM specs

The Engine
Built on a Centralized Knowledge Base
Doc AI isn't just a document generator. It acts as your company's living engineering memory, enforcing consistency across every part you manufacture.
The Process Library
Upload your master list of machines, inspection gages, and family templates once. When generating a new PFMEA or Control Plan, the AI pulls directly from this "tribal knowledge" to intelligently pre-populate process steps and recommended equipment.
Revision Control & Audit Trails
PPAPs are living documents. If you update an inspection frequency or add a risk mitigation to a PFMEA during production, Doc AI automatically tracks the change, increments the revision, and logs an immutable history for future ISO/IATF audits.
RAG Validation Layer
We eliminate AI hallucinations using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Every generated document is cross-checked against your uploaded master prints, POs, and engineering specifications before it is finalized.
AIAG Framework
The 18 PPAP Elements, and Where Doc AI Automates Them
PPAP is defined by AIAG (the Automotive Industry Action Group) as a standardized package of up to 18 elements. Most suppliers don't submit all 18 for every part — the customer specifies the required submission level — but the full checklist is the reference every quality team works against.
Doc AI focuses its automation on the elements that are the heaviest manual burden and the most error-prone to compile by hand: PFMEA and Control Plan generation from your Process Library, ISIR dimensional extraction from 2D/3D drawings and inspection sheets, MTR validation against ASTM/ASME specs, and PSW compilation once every linked element is complete. The remaining elements (design records, engineering approvals, qualified lab documentation) are typically customer- or lab-issued documents that Doc AI ingests and cross-references rather than generates.
PPAP Automation is built on the DocAI Platform. The same rule-based validation engine also powers MTR and CBAM compliance automation.
Doc AI PPAP Platform FAQ
Answers covering automated document generation, process libraries, and compliance reviews. For platform-wide questions, see the full FAQ.
Doc AI uses a top-down RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) model. It ingests your 2D/3D drawings, automatically balloons them, extracts all GD&T and dimensions, and populates the ISIR. It also leverages your central 'Process Library' to auto-populate PFMEAs and Control Plans based on historical data.
OEMs upload their internal 'Source of Truth' (Master Prints, POs, Engineering Specs). The AI then shreds the incoming supplier PPAP package and performs a factual cross-reference. It instantly flags missing documents, out-of-spec dimensions, and clerical errors on a unified dashboard, eliminating manual verification.
The Process Library is a centralized knowledge space where you store your standard process steps, machine lists, inspection equipment, and historical templates. The AI leverages this tribal knowledge to intelligently suggest inspection methods and pre-populate documents for new parts, ensuring total consistency.
Yes. The platform transforms PPAP documents from static files into a 'living' centralized repository tied to each part number. When a customer sends a new print revision, the AI flags the changes and prompts you to update the linked Control Plans and PFMEAs, creating a perfect audit trail.
First, the AI detects balloons and extracts dimensions directly from your 2D/3D drawings. Next, you can upload internal handwritten or digital inspection sheets. The AI automatically extracts the actual inspection values, populates the report, and instantly flags any out-of-spec measurements for review.
Yes. When a supplier uploads a mill certificate, Doc AI extracts the chemical and mechanical properties and validates them against the uploaded customer specifications or ASTM standards, instantly flagging any discrepancies before approval.
