Agentic AI for automotive engineering

The agentic AI platform for automotive engineering

Ship quotes faster. Run more design iterations. Compress development timelines. With Synera, your team produces more with the people you already have.

Built for automotive engineering and product development teams

The state of automotive engineering

Automotive engineering R&D is moving faster than the tools made to engineer its products

48-60 month vehicle programs compressing to 24-36 months
EU vs China: ~30% structural cost gap
Inconsistent quotes, unpredictable margins
Rare-earth supply crisis
Institutional knowledge retiring with no succession plan
ICE and BEV engineering running in parallel
Static cost models, volatile material prices
Siloed tools, no shared data layer

From connected tools to a coordinated agentic workforce with Synera

Synera connects your tools, captures your experts’ knowledge, and runs it as agents. Your teams quote faster, iterate more, and compress development timelines without adding headcount. The engineering teams already doing this are turning the trend.

Here's how Synera works
inside your engineering stack

Synera works in levels and each level builds on the one before it. Most teams start at level one and reach level four within six months.

1

Connect

Your engineering tools are connected by a unifying platform. Engineers stop losing time to rework caused by data that arrived late, reformatted incorrectly, or not at all. What was fragmented becomes a single traceable flow.

2

Automate

Fragmented steps become automated end-to-end. An engineering task is initiated and the right tools execute without manual handoffs between systems. Sequential becomes simultaneous.

3

Agentify

Agents are introduced on top of your workflows. Each agent has access to large language models, your workflow library, and connected tools. They evaluate, interpret, and act, following your engineering methods and applying your best intellectual property.

4

Scale

A coordinated agentic workforce handles your full development process in parallel. Engineers steer outcomes rather than wait to iterate. Development time compresses. Competitive position strengthens.

The capabilities that make each transition possible:

Integrations layer

The integrations that power Connect and Automate

Secure LLM layer

The secure LLM layer that enables Agentify

Workflow library

The workflow library that gives agents something to run at Scale

Over 95% time-savings for automotive manufacturers

Engineering decisions require precise calculation, not inference

A cost breakdown is calculated from geometry, material costs, and manufacturing logic, step by step. Synera builds every output on deterministic calculation, with a full audit trail the engineer can inspect and defend to a customer.

Your engineers have built decades of quoting expertise. Synera runs that expertise 99% faster. Engineers become stewards and value creators.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from automotive engineering leaders

What is agentic AI for automotive engineering?

Agentic AI for automotive engineering is a category of AI systems that can autonomously execute multi-step engineering processes, such as RFQ-to-quote, design-to-cost analysis, and manufacturing feasibility, by connecting and orchestrating the tools, data, and workflows your engineering teams already use.

How does Synera reduce RFQ-to-quote time for Tier-1 suppliers?

Synera deploys a team of agents that receives an RFQ package, reads the CAD geometry, retrieves historical pricing, calculates a cost breakdown, and generates a draft open-book response, reducing a process that previously took weeks to under 10 minutes.

How long does it take to deploy Synera in an automotive engineering team?

Most engineering teams have their first automated workflows running in production within the first three months, with a full agentic AI system operational within six to twelve months depending on deployment scope.

What CAD and simulation tools does Synera connect to?

Synera has native connectors for 80+ engineering tools including PTC Creo, NX, CATIA, SolidWorks, Ansys, Altair, aPriori, FACTON, SAP, and major PLM and ERP systems, enabling multi-vendor workflow automation across fragmented engineering stacks.

How is Synera different from general-purpose AI tools for engineering?

Unlike general-purpose AI tools, Synera processes engineering data types natively — including 3D geometry, simulation results, and mesh formats — and executes engineering workflows rather than recommending actions, with a full deterministic audit trail the engineer can inspect and defend to a customer.
