A Vision for the Future of Simulation
Millions of times a day, people around the world make better decisions
faster based on insights rooted in our ubiquitous simulation — the
cloud-powered platform running in the background of millions of
products, services, and devices everywhere.
Hundreds of thousands of times a day, engineers, analysts, or
technical specialists everywhere use our extended capabilities as
part of a model-based workflow, using our integrated and intelligent
simulation platform, informed by AI/ML, hosted in the cloud.
Thousands of times a day, expert engineers and
scientists use engineering simulation technology to
develop and validate the design of products and systems.

Testimonial – Renault Group
“With Ansys SimAI, we will be able to easily
test a design within minutes and rapidly
analyze the results, ultimately redefining
our digital engineering workflow and
reshaping our perception of what is
possible. By enhancing simulation speed,
we can explore more technical
possibilities during the upstream phase of
our projects and reduce the overall time-
to-market.”
