// talk to an engineer

15 minutes with an engineer before you commit to an order

Not sure about a footprint, a stackup, or whether your design is ready to fab? Book a free call with the engineer who'd actually work on it, before you commit to an order.

// how a call actually goes

Here's exactly what happens when you book

Book a slot, talk to the person who'll actually work on your board.

Step 01

Pick a time

Grab any open 15-minute slot below — no discovery call first, nothing to fill in beyond your name and email.

No sales deck
Step 02

Send your files — optional

Attach a Gerber or schematic when you book and the engineer's already looked before you're on the call. Nothing finished yet? Show up anyway.

Either way works
Step 03

Talk it through

A footprint, a stackup question, or just 'is this even fabricable' — ask it directly.

With the engineer, not sales
Step 04

Leave with next steps

A DFM note, a spec you can quote instantly, or clarity on what to fix next.

Not a follow-up queue
An engineer, not a sales layerYour call is with an engineer who can answer DFM and spec questions directly.
Your files stay with the team building itWhatever you send goes straight to the fabricating team — not out to a third-party CRM or a call-center queue.

Frequently asked

Is the call actually free?

Yes — no cost, and no obligation to order afterward. It's the same conversation you'd have with us before ordering anyway; booking it just moves it earlier.

Do I need finished design files to book?

No. Bring a schematic, a rough sketch, or nothing at all — "I have an idea but haven't started" is a completely normal reason to book this call.

What if I just have an idea, not a design yet?

That's fine — tell the engineer what you're building and what it needs to do, and they'll help you figure out what has to happen next, whether that's a schematic, a component choice, or straight to layout.

How long is the call, and what if I need more time?

Slots are 15 minutes by default. If your question needs longer, the engineer will say so on the call and you can pick it back up by email — no pressure to rush a real DFM concern into a short window.

What happens after the call?

You leave with something concrete: a DFM note on your design, a spec you can run through the instant quote calculator, or clear next steps if the design still needs work — not a "someone will follow up."
