Foresight is a consultancy whose own tools got good enough to become the product. No logo wall, no adjectives. Every claim on this site arrives with a number you can check.
Keystone is a SolidWorks 2025 add-in and a browser twin that run in lockstep — part-number allocation, configuration management and naming discipline, held in one shared cloud database and bridged to DriveWorks. A number issued at a CAD seat cannot be reissued in a browser, because both surfaces are reading the same truth. It is at v26.08.044 after 155+ shipped builds, in production at two manufacturers.
See what Keystone endsOne consultant with a system, not an agency with a deck. Foresight writes the automation vendors do not sell: SolidWorks add-ins, PDM workflows, DriveWorks, macros, web tooling, cloud data and reporting — built beside the people who will run it, and handed over with the evidence attached.
How the work runsConfigure-to-order projects rarely fail at the form. They fail underneath, in tables built in a hurry. Foresight builds the data spine first — group tables, calculation tables, specification flow — then bridges it to Keystone so a specification arrives with its configurations already driven. Alone it works. Paired, it compounds.
The DriveWorks practiceHarvest is the 52 Meal Bank platform, a church food-shelf web app at 52mealbank.org — built and maintained to the same standard as everything else here, because it is part of what Foresight is rather than a line at the bottom of a page. The same intent runs through the rest: publish the method, share the resources, and gather the people who would rather see a trade improve than keep an advantage.
What is being built togetherEvery tool here started as paid consulting on a real engagement, which is the cheapest market research there is: someone was already paying to have the problem fixed.
The fix gets versioned, asserted and re-shipped until it stops being a script and starts being a standard. 155+ builds is what that looks like from the inside.
The hardened tool goes back out as product. Keystone runs at two manufacturers today; the consulting that built it is still finding the next one.
The consulting funds the tools. The tools become the products. The products prove the consulting.
Foresight envisions a future built on innovation and collaboration — and invites the partners who want to build it.
A small brand cannot borrow trust from a logo wall, so this one publishes what it can prove. Every defect is ledgered in the words of the person who hit it. And when Keystone cannot do something safely, it says so in a sentence instead of guessing.
Numbers move. When they do, this page changes.
How Foresight worksDescribe the problem in your own words — a build that needs scoping, a DriveWorks project that has stalled, or a question about whether Keystone fits the way your team already works.
You will get a straight answer, including when the straight answer is that Foresight is not the right fit. That policy has cost us work. It has never cost us a client.
