Version control for schematics and PCBs, built into Altium Designer
History, side-by-side comparison and selective restore, with no cloud and no switching to a browser.

| Today’s option | Why it falls short |
|---|---|
| Folder copies | Whole-project copies, no change history, no way to undo one change |
| Git | Altium files are binary: no visual diff, no partial restore |
| Altium 365 | Cloud-only storage, commits through a browser, from $1,990 per month |
| Glavkon (Russia) | Version control moved to a browser, little market awareness |
| AllSpice (US) | Cloud web app outside Altium, raised $25M |
Demand is real: engineering forums keep asking for “Git for electronics”, and investors put $25M into AllSpice and $27M into Flux in 2025–2026.

The working file is untouched until the result is verified. Native Altium APIs, regular Undo.
Industrial Electronics LLC: all five engineers moved from Drive folder copies to RevTrace, and the team kept using it after the author left.
Next: one installer for several Altium versions, so any team can install it regardless of the Altium release they run.
Revenue: per-device license; the license server already runs.
