Invention Machine (Boston, MA), a provider of innovation software, has joined PTC's (Needham, MA) PartnerAdvantage Program to help customers accelerate their product innovation process.

The company also enhanced its flagship innovation software, Invention Machine Goldfire Innovator, by adding the Connector to PTC Windchill to provide direct access to content housed within Windchill. This will enable users to leverage knowledge stored in Windchill, ensuring that the right designs are put at the front end of the product lifecycle management (PLM) process.

Invention Machine's software allows engineers to generate and validate the right ideas the first time. The software also identifies and mitigates risks from the product development process, so businesses can confidently focus on driving repeatable and sustainable innovation, regardless of the product concept and market challenges.

The innovation software incorporates pre-defined risk analysis templates based on industry-specific workflows so they integrate better with existing innovation processes in automotive, energy, chemical, and defense industries.
