Balloonist
Auto-balloons PDF drawings, extracts dimensions and GD&T, exports AS9102 Form 3 to Excel/CSV.
A browser-based tool that auto-balloons PDF drawings, extracts dimensions and GD&T symbols, and exports AS9102 Form 3 reports to Excel or CSV, solving the time-consuming manual process of creating First Article Inspection (FAI) reports. It is designed for quality teams and job shops that perform FAIs daily, typically in manufacturing and industrial sectors. The tool is positioned as a simple, fast, and secure solution, with drawings processed entirely in the browser and never uploaded, and it is hosted on AWS GovCloud for compliance.
