  • Test Schedule
  • Data Security

Property Prediction


Predicts relevant viscometric characteristics of each proposed blend.

 

Material Optimization


Generates relevant combinations from the highly dimensional formulation decision space by identifying the most economical combinations and proposing optimal blends based on desired outcomes, confidence in predicted properties, and estimated cost.

IP Protection


Trains and tunes models based on client data, strictly to be utilized for that client alone. Model learning and knowledge integration are never transferred to other clients.

Engine Test Prediction


Identifies industry and OEM-required engine tests and predicts each test pass/fail through confidence score evaluations

Test Schedule


If required, recommends an optimized testing schedule considering cost, time, likelihood of success, and industry rules and standards.

Data Security


Secures client data through state-of-the-art, public cloud-based IT services plus safety protocols along with continuous penetration and vulnerability testing.
