PhysicsX Platform
The AI-Native Engineering Platform combines physics-based simulation with deep learning to accelerate product development across the full engineering lifecycle. It includes a Simulation Workbench for data management and 2D/3D analysis, an AI Workbench for building and deploying Deep Physics Models, no-code Engineering Applications for optimisation workflows, a Model Catalog of pre-built and custom AI models, and a Data Unification layer that serves as a central record for experimental and operational data. The platform supports multi-cloud and on-premises deployment and integrates with major CAE tools.
LGM-Aero
A generative AI model for aerodynamic engineering, launched in December 2024. LGM-Aero is designed for aerospace applications, enabling engineers to explore aerodynamic design spaces and optimise performance at a scale and speed that traditional simulation cannot match.
About
PhysicsX is an AI engineering company headquartered in London, with an additional office in New York. Founded by former Formula 1 engineers, it builds software that embeds AI throughout the engineering product lifecycle, from initial design through manufacturing and operations.
