Your aerodynamic data has no source of truth. Thread fixes that.

Thread is a customised aerodynamic data solution that gives your team a single, auditable source of truth for all simulation and test data.

The Problem

Aerodynamic databases are built in spreadsheets and folder trees. Reference quantities are copied by hand. When the lift curve slope is wrong, nobody can trace why. Every handoff between aero, GNC, performance, and structures is a potential error. Every error is weeks of rework. Certification (DO-178C, ARP4754A) demands traceability that manual processes cannot provide.

What You Get
Single integrated data environment replacing the spreadsheet-and-email workflow.
Automatic provenance every result traces back to the geometry, mesh, solver settings, and reference quantities that produced it.
Cross-discipline access GNC, performance, structures, and configurators pull from the same auditable source.
Certification-ready audit trail generated automatically as a byproduct of normal work.
The ROI

Efficiency

Eliminates manual data handoff, re-normalisation errors, and version confusion. Conservatively saves 1 FTE's worth of time across a 10-person aero team.

Performance

Tightly integrated data means you discover errors earlier. Reference quantity bugs that currently survive to flight test get caught at the database level.

Risk Reduction

Full traceability from plot back to geometry. When the certification auditor asks where a number came from, the answer is one click, not three weeks.
