SPREAD AI

What SPREAD AI does

SPREAD AI provides an engineering intelligence platform that unifies fragmented mechanical, electrical, and software data into a functional Product Twin. This allows engineering teams to understand their product comprehensively by making product logic explicit. The platform empowers engineers with specialized AI agents and solutions for precise and rapid action, especially in high-stakes situations. Built on an award-winning Engineering Information Model (EIN), SPREAD serves as the backbone for engineering AI for software-defined products. It has been proven across over 100 enterprise deployments, enabling high-speed engineering, reducing costs, and fostering industrial innovation.

Products

• Requirements ManagerAn AI-powered tool that reads requirements, checks them against engineering data and prior projects, and flags conflicts or gaps before design. It allows running AI at a domain-expert level.
• Product ExplorerAn engineering data navigator that connects every system and answers questions in plain language by tracing answers across parts, requirements, tests, and suppliers. It provides a navigable workspace for parts, signals, functions, requirements, and variants.
• Error InspectorAn AI-powered solution that traces problems in pilot, series, or field back to their component or requirement causes in minutes, reducing war room time from weeks. It helps surface and solve issues fast and permanently.
• Product ArchitectOptimizes system architectures by aligning requirements, managing dependencies, and reducing inefficiencies across the entire product lifecycle. It ensures seamless collaboration between R&D and production.
• Action TowerMonitors product maturity, manages releases, and aligns changes across system dependencies. It provides a central overview for teams to ensure readiness and improve performance from development to production.
• SPREAD StudioA low-code environment for building custom applications with pre-built widgets and tailored analyses. It allows connecting data and choosing from various interfaces.

AI approach

SPREAD AI provides an Engineering Intelligence platform that unifies fragmented engineering data into a functional Product Twin, enabling specialized AI agents and solutions. It uses a proprietary Engineering Information Model (EIN) and a robust Knowledge Graph to organize and contextualize data, allowing AI agents to analyze product relationships, anticipate challenges, and deliver context-aware insights. The platform includes AI-powered applications like Requirements Manager, Product Explorer, and Error Inspector, and supports building custom solutions with a low-code studio. The AI agents automate tasks such as compliance checks, requirements optimization, and error management.
