Elevate your possible with Augmented Engineering

Engineering. Take it to the next level.

As AI moves from the niche to the mainstream, all engineering activities and products are going to become augmented. People and processes, products and services will move to new levels of intelligence and effectiveness.

Despite the huge volume of hype, AI’s impact will be transformative, much like the internet. However, informed decisions and strategic investments are crucial in determining both how, where and when to apply.

We partner with you to craft a long-term vision while reaping immediate benefits from AI technology. We call our approach Augmented Engineering – defined to manage the specific failure modes of AI inside the demanding context of Engineering.

Augmented Engineering changes the way you’ll approach mainstream engineering. It takes people and processes, products and services to new levels of intelligence and effectiveness.

“In engineering, Gen AI is not enough. But Augmented Engineering, powered by Hybrid AI, gets you the future you want.“

Gen AI is not enough

Our Augmented Engineering approach combines immediate action with long-term strategy.

At the heart of Augmented Engineering is Hybrid AI, which merges Gen AI with other AI types and other types of engineering and scientific models. Hybrid-AI delivers AI-driven outcomes with the precision, quality and correctness required in engineering and science.

You still get the value of AI – but you get it on engineering’s demanding terms.

With this approach, organizations can still achieve rapid tactical results with Gen AI – but they can also use Hybrid AI strategically to augment entire processes, and also to create undreamed-of new and smart products and processes – cost-effectively and sustainably.

Short-term tactical results. Long-term strategic success.

With Augmented Engineering, powered by Hybrid AI, engineers can have both – and in a manner specific to their needs.
