# Koppar

> Koppar documentation: AI PCB design from a text description to a KiCad schematic, a placed and routed board, a priced BOM and Gerbers.

- [Koppar docs: AI PCB design from one sentence](https://docs.koppar.ai/introduction.md): Koppar is AI PCB design that goes all the way: a text description becomes a KiCad schematic, a placed and routed board, a priced BOM and Gerbers.
- [Quickstart](https://docs.koppar.ai/quickstart.md): From sign-in to Gerbers in the Koppar studio: describe the project, answer the follow-ups, review the KiCad schematic, and download the routed board.
- [What you get](https://docs.koppar.ai/what-you-get.md): Every file a Koppar design produces: the KiCad 10 schematic and board, the DRC report, Gerbers, IPC-2581, ODB++, a priced BOM and the assembly bundle.
- [Manufacturing: from a clean board to a fab order](https://docs.koppar.ai/manufacturing.md): How a Koppar board gets made: a bill of materials priced from Mouser and LCSC stock, fab files released at zero DRC errors, and handoffs to AISLER, PCBWay and JLCPCB.
- [Drive Koppar from your own agent](https://docs.koppar.ai/agents/overview.md): Design PCBs from Claude Code, any MCP client, the CLI or REST: your agent's model writes the schematic, Koppar does place and route, DRC, BOM and Gerbers.
- [MCP server](https://docs.koppar.ai/agents/mcp.md): Add Koppar to Claude Code or any MCP client with one command and design a KiCad PCB from a prompt: part lookup, schematic checks, routing, DRC, Gerbers.
- [CLI](https://docs.koppar.ai/agents/cli.md): The koppar CLI: install with one line, log in with a key, create a design, submit a SKiDL circuit, run the board and download Gerbers. JSON for agents.
- [REST API](https://docs.koppar.ai/agents/rest.md): Koppar's agent tools as HTTP endpoints: list the tools with JSON Schemas, call one by name, and download the KiCad project, BOM and Gerbers by URL.
- [Free tools](https://docs.koppar.ai/tools.md): Free online KiCad tools at tools.koppar.ai: netlist to schematic, netlist to routed PCB, autorouter, DRC check, board preview, Gerber, IPC-2581 and ODB++.
- [Verification](https://docs.koppar.ai/engine/verification.md): Every check a Koppar design passes: ERC and KiCad ERC on the schematic, sourcing and footprint checks, KiCad DRC with fab minimums, and the release gate.
- [Design rules](https://docs.koppar.ai/engine/design-rules.md): What Koppar decides for a PCB and what you can state: board size, 1 to 8 copper layers, hand-made boards, net classes, differential pairs, rail widths and fab presets.
- [Benchmarks](https://docs.koppar.ai/benchmarks.md): How the Koppar autorouter is measured: KiCad ratsnest and DRC on eight open-hardware boards, against Freerouting, tscircuit, KiCad Routing Tools and TraceMaker, on one machine with one cap.
- [FAQ](https://docs.koppar.ai/faq.md): Answers about Koppar's AI PCB design: 4-layer boards, real KiCad files, invented parts, live BOM prices, your own board, privacy, pricing and fabs.
