Digital dental manufacturing · Local-first · Vendor-neutral

The digital thread for dental manufacturing.

ProthoPilot connects case intake, 3D assets, CAD handoff and production preparation into a traceable workflow — without making the laboratory depend on filenames, folders or implicit “latest project” assumptions.

Platform

From scattered files to a verifiable case workflow.

Scanner, CAD, CAM and manufacturing services remain authoritative in their own domains. ProthoPilot adds the layer that preserves case identity, asset provenance and workflow continuity across them.

01

Case-centric intake

Turn scans, prescriptions and incoming files into a canonical JOB with explicit asset roles and provenance.

02

Deterministic CAD handoff

Bind the exact ProthoPilot case to the exact exocad project instead of relying on names, folders or recency.

03

Revision awareness

Track verified CAD revisions and preserve which source assets and project identity they belong to.

04

Production orchestration

Prepare downstream handoffs around validated case state while keeping specialist CAM and manufacturing systems in control.

05

Integrity by design

File hashes, explicit identity, conservative migrations and non-destructive integration form the current technical foundation.

Built for the next layer

Architecture is being developed toward asset graphs, coordinate normalization and stronger geometry identity.

Workflow

One case. One identity. Every handoff traceable.

  1. 01

    Intake

    Import and classify source assets into a structured case.

  2. 02

    CAD

    Launch the selected case into exocad and persist the exact project binding.

  3. 03

    Revision

    Detect verified CAD output for the bound project and reconcile it with the correct JOB.

  4. 04

    Production

    Move downstream only when the case state and handoff are explicit.

Integration philosophy

Vendor-neutral by architecture.

ProthoPilot is not intended to replace scanner software, CAD, CAM or manufacturing systems. It is designed to connect them while preserving ownership boundaries and traceability.

Current status

Alpha, with a working technical foundation.

ProthoPilot is currently a Windows desktop alpha. Core intake, case persistence, exocad project binding, verified scan handoff and CAD revision reconciliation are already implemented.

It is not yet intended for production use with real clinical data. Commercial packaging, broader integrations and field validation remain under development.

For technology partners

Building something that should connect to the dental lab workflow?

We are open to technical discussions around scanner, CAD, CAM and manufacturing integrations.
