When a Simple Search Isn't Enough: The Octopart Gap.

While Octopart is a useful price aggregator, it lacks the depth for modern hardware design. PartGenie addresses these critical gaps:

Passive vs. Proactive

Octopart provides raw data; PartGenie's AI proactively analyzes your BOM for EOL/NRND risks and suggests intelligent alternatives.

Search vs. Understanding

Octopart relies on keywords; PartGenie's AI understands your natural language design intent to find optimal solutions, not just parts.

Data vs. Insights

Octopart presents fragmented data; PartGenie delivers actionable, verified design insights, transforming weeks of manual validation into minutes.
