Wrench SmartProject
+ Pathnovo AI Extraction
Add domain-native engineering document AI to the Indian EDMS market leader. Auto-populate MDR fields, extract document content, feed compliance registers. SmartProject keeps its workflow; Pathnovo adds the intelligence layer behind it.
Auto-Populate MDR Fields
Every document routed through Wrench SmartProject is read by Pathnovo on ingress (document number, title, revision, discipline, author, sheet count, referenced tags), all auto-populated into the SmartProject MDR. No manual data entry. No typos. No delayed update.
Extract Document Content, Not Just Metadata
Beyond MDR fields, Pathnovo extracts structured engineering data from the documents SmartProject routes: P&ID tags, isometric MTOs, HAZOP actions, mill certificate data, compliance register entries. This content layer is invisible to SmartProject alone.
Transmittal Intelligence
Incoming transmittals are classified by discipline, priority, contract-clause relevance, and completeness gap. Document controllers see the structured breakdown before opening the package. SmartProject workflow enhanced without disruption.
Contract Deliverable Completeness
Pathnovo cross-references received documents against the contract deliverable matrix and surfaces completeness scoring directly inside SmartProject. Client milestone payment releases gate on this score, so bottlenecks surface in real time.
Compliance Register Feed
IBR, OISD 118, PESO, CCOE register entries extracted from project documents as they arrive, feeding directly into the SmartProject document management workflow while maintaining the live regulatory register. See /compliance/indian-epc-compliance-bundle.
No SmartProject Replacement
Pathnovo sits alongside SmartProject as an intelligence layer. Wrench's workflow, security, user base, and UI remain untouched. Document controllers keep their SmartProject interface; Pathnovo adds the extraction intelligence through the API.

What is Wrench SmartProject?
Wrench SmartProject is the Indian EDMS (Engineering Document Management System) market leader, used by 90+ clients including L&T Construction, CH2MHill Abu Dhabi, Worley, and ACME Group. It manages MDR (Master Document Register) maintenance, transmittals, review workflows, vendor documents, and earned value tracking for EPC projects. Recently added an 'AI Advisor' for project analytics, but SmartProject routes documents without reading their content.
How does Pathnovo integrate with Wrench SmartProject?
Via REST API. Pathnovo reads every document routed through SmartProject (or selected by filter: by discipline, by project, by date), extracts structured metadata and content, and writes back the enriched fields directly into the SmartProject MDR and transmittal records. The SmartProject workflow, security model, and user interface are untouched. Pathnovo acts as a silent intelligence layer behind the scenes.
Does this replace Wrench SmartProject?
No. Pathnovo is complementary, not competitive. SmartProject provides workflow, security, user management, and established document control. Pathnovo adds the document intelligence layer that SmartProject cannot provide: reading documents, extracting structured engineering data, feeding compliance registers. They work as one integrated platform, each doing what it does best.
What documents does Pathnovo process from SmartProject?
Any engineering document routed through SmartProject: P&IDs, isometrics, datasheets, equipment lists, instrument indexes, mill certificates, HAZOP studies, compliance documents, vendor submittals, meeting minutes, transmittals, and contract documents. Supported formats include native PDF, scanned PDF, AutoCAD DWG / DXF, Word, Excel, and image formats (TIFF, JPEG, PNG).
What is the commercial model for this integration?
Per-document pricing: from $95 per drawing on Project tier, from $65 per drawing on Enterprise volume (500+ documents). For organisations running SmartProject across multiple simultaneous projects, enterprise annual contracts from $10,000 / month provide unlimited extraction across defined project scope. Pilot engagements on a single SmartProject project are scoped on the free 10-document pilot. Indian PSU rate-card compatibility available.
Which Wrench customer segments benefit most from this integration?
(1) Indian EPC contractors with 5+ simultaneous projects on SmartProject: eliminate manual MDR data entry across thousands of documents; (2) Gulf owner-operators using SmartProject for mega-project document control: add extraction intelligence to their existing workflow; (3) Indian PSU operators (IOCL, BPCL, HPCL, ONGC) digitising legacy document archives: Pathnovo feeds structure into SmartProject without migration; (4) SmartProject-enabled turnarounds needing OISD 118 / IBR compliance register maintenance.
How does this differ from Wrench's AI Advisor?
Wrench's AI Advisor provides project analytics: KPI dashboards, trend analysis, exception reporting across the document workflow. It does not extract content from the documents themselves. Pathnovo adds the document-content-reading layer that complements AI Advisor: Advisor analyses the workflow, Pathnovo analyses the documents. Together they provide complete project intelligence.
Is this an official partnership?
Pathnovo has built the SmartProject integration as a technical partnership pattern. Enterprise engagements with formal joint-partnership terms can be arranged on request. For clients of either party interested in combined deployment, both Pathnovo and Wrench support the introduction and integration process.
