Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

No, we are making the existing and rare safety experts more efficient. We are enabling safety engineers to execute 5x more projects by providing cutting-edge technology as a tool.

The determination of the effect for each possible failure mode (is this short circuit dangerous?).

We currently support Windows-based operating systems. Paitron supports Windows 7 or later and requires Microsoft Excel 2013 or later. Please contact us through our contact form or email us if your requirements are different.

Paitron is trusted by leading companies across critical sectors, from automotive & transportation and aviation & advanced mobility to industrial automation & safety systems, aerospace & defense, consumer electronics & connectivity, and building & infrastructure.

We do not get any data from our customers. All models, requirements, and resulting FMEAs are sensitive data and are not being transmitted.

We are automating cumbersome FMEAs and derivates (FMEDA, FMECA), without requiring further modeling in complex frameworks (e.g. temporal logic). The seamless integration is achieved by interfaces to popular modeling tools. Click here to view more details. 

Roughly 90% of all failure modes can be automatically evaluated with Paitron. As we cannot anticipate each and every component, we are constantly extending our database based on customer requests and improving the automation rate.

It takes roughly (depending on the system’s complexity) one hour to prepare and set up a Paitron FMEDA.

Our database for components is not comprehensive or complete in any way. There might be components that must be evaluated manually. If you encounter this issue, please contact us through our contact form or email us to request a database update.

We are constantly expanding to bring in more interfaces but Paitron currently supports Xpedition, Matlab Simulink, LTspice, OrCAD PSpice, Altium Designer & CircuitStudio. Please refer to our product page or our functional description page for the latest list of supported interfaces.

A netlist and BOM from your native development tool chain on the model-side. This must be enhanced by the requirements to set the context for the automated analysis.

As we are constantly adding further interfaces, please refer to our product page or our functional description page for the latest list of supported tools and formats.

Yes, you can. They will stay confidential, too. 

We achieved a breakthrough in November 2021, when receiving a concept report for IEC 61508 and ISO 26262. We are working together with TÜV SÜD to qualify our tool according to industry standards like IEC 61508, ISO 26262, which is expected soon.

Yes, we have a trial version of Paitron. Kindly sign up here.

We also offer a 3-6 month long evaluation period for undecided teams and experts. Reach out to us through our contact form or email us!

For pilot engagements (proofs of concept), any customer materials you provide (for example, schematics & BOMs) are processed strictly under the signed NDA and used only for the pilot.

We do not reconstruct or decompile products or software that contain confidential information. At your request, we shall return or destroy all confidential information.

For production rollouts, Paitron is installed and executed locally on your infrastructure (on-premises). There is no automatic data transmission from your environment to Modelwise.

Customers retain full ownership of all data they import into Paitron (schematics, BOMs, requirements) and of any customer-specific outputs generated through their authorized use of the application. The exact contractual wording is provided in our License Agreement/Terms & Conditions.

No. Paitron is a deterministic, locally executed application – it is not a probabilistic, cloud-hosted AI service that is trained on customer data. Customer data provided for pilots or run locally in production is not used to train models or improve any external model.

Because Paitron runs fully on the customer’s infrastructure and does not require automatic data exchange, many deployment scenarios reduce the need for external data-transfer certifications.

If you require specific certification evidence or details about Modelwise’s information security posture, we will provide that information on request and as part of contractual due diligence.

Yes. For contractual confirmation during pilots or rollouts, we are happy to engage directly with your procurement or legal teams, and we can provide the relevant NDA, License Agreement/Terms & Conditions, and any other documentation your team requires.
