Overview
We saw an opportunity to abstract away the process of deployment and parameter optimisation. Using emulation methods, we enabled access to actionable results in a tiny fraction of the time. Our technology was born in the Department of Physics at Oxford University, and the positive response our first iteration met within our community far exceeded anything we'd imagined. This propelled us to build the Discovery Platform, our full-fledged simulation management and acceleration platform. With our game-changing technology, AI expertise and proactive collaboration, we empower our customers to discover new possibilities.
