Why Paniani
Direct access to experienced engineers
The founders lead your project and bring in specialists as needed.
Founder-led projects
You work directly with the engineers responsible for delivery.
DFM with suppliers
Design decisions made with the people who will build it.
Prototypes and testing
We check function, fit and durability using physical parts.
Know the cost early
Supplier pricing and tooling input from the outset.
IP protection
Product IP and supplier agreements
Project ownership
Design ownership and supplier obligations
Before designs enter the supply chain, we put ownership, use, quality and delivery obligations in writing. That includes China-focused NNN protection and bilingual supplier terms—not just a generic NDA.
NNN protectionBilingual supplier termsQuality & manufacturing agreementsLogistics & export records
Agreement formats are tailored to the project, with appropriate legal review where required.
