Airtable Modernizes Product Design with Unity
Airtable, an information technology organization in the United States, uses Unity Engine from Unity to support engineering design for design engineers.
Airtable uses Unity Engine to author and review designs in a shared environment instead of file sprawl.
“From the United States, information technology teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer.”
“Unity is a real-time 3D platform used for games, digital twins, and industrial visualization.”

| Capability | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for product design |
| Capability | Engineering design stays visible to adjacent teams through Unity Engine |
| Capability | Design engineers work from the same Unity Engine record for product design |
Story
Airtable grew product design faster than the local tools around it. From the United States, information technology teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Design engineers were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out Unity Engine put engineering design on Unity. Unity is a real-time 3D platform used for games, digital twins, and industrial visualization. Airtable keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so design engineers do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier engineering design. Product design is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join design engineers without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
