Inspired by Physics,
Driven by AI

Every day, thousands of hours are spent modeling turbulence, simulating fluid flows, heat transfer, structural mechanics - across aviation, energy, semiconductors, automotive, and beyond. These processes follow similar patterns but require different specialized software, creating bottlenecks everywhere.



We're changing that. Our deep learning models run simulations in seconds instead of weeks. One architecture, universal application. When simulation becomes instant, everything changes. Engineers explore design spaces that were computationally impossible. Manufacturing lines self-optimize in real-time. Innovation cycles compress from months to days. The constraints that defined engineering for decades simply disappear.


We have the three critical ingredients: a scalable modeling paradigm, millions of high-fidelity simulations, and deep domain understanding. Engineering's transformative moment has arrived.

We didn't set out to build another AI tool. We set out to solve a fundamental bottleneck in engineering.

From Research Breakthrough to Engineering Revolution

Founded in 2024 by pioneers of data-driven simulations, Emmi AI emerged from a simple observation: while manufacturing cycles have accelerated 10x, simulation technology remains stuck in the 1970s.

What Makes Us Different

AI That Empowers, Not Replaces

While others build closed ecosystems, Emmi AI integrates with existing engineering platforms to unlock AI acceleration without forcing disruption. We power your workflows instead of replacing them.

Unmatched Scalability

Our transformer based models redefine what’s possible in physics simulation - scaling to billions of mesh cells on a single GPU and outperforming every published CFD benchmark. And we’re going further: expanding into transient, multi-physics, and generative modeling.

Foundation of Engineering

Emmi AI is building foundation models for the physical world - reference models that generalize across entire industrial verticals. From power transformers to injection molding, these models eliminate the need for costly data generation and bring unprecedented scalability.

Team

Built by Pioneers, Backed by Visionaries

30 world-class researchers and engineers pushing the boundaries of AI and physics, led by three founders who blend world-class research with commercial execution.

Johannes Brandstetter

Co-Founder & Chief Scientist

Pioneer in data-driven simulations.

Previously at CERN and Microsoft, Johannes co-architected Aurora, the world's first AI foundation model for weather forecasting. Now at Emmi AI, Johannes is applying those revolutionary principles to transform industrial engineering.

Dennis Just

Co-Founder & ceo

Brings deep tech to market at scale.

A serial founder and company builder, Dennis combines years of experience building and scaling technology ventures. At Emmi AI, he leads the company’s strategy and growth - translating groundbreaking research into products that transform industrial design and simulation.

Miks Mikelsons

Co-Founder & COO

Drives operational excellence and execution.

With a background in building high performance organizations, Miks ensures Emmi AI runs with precision and speed. He oversees operations, delivery, and cross-functional execution, enabling the team to scale efficiently while staying focused on impact.

“Together, we've assembled a team that publishes in top journals and ships production code - a rare combination in deep tech.”

Investors

More than capital, our investors bring deep expertise in scaling transformative technologies. Their commitment represents a strong vote of confidence in our mission to fundamentally transform industrial engineering through AI.

The Hard Path
Is the Only Path

Others chase quick wins with toy problems. We tackle industrial complexity from Day 1. Others approximate. We solve the actual physics.

Every model we train, every dataset we curate, every deployment we complete - they push the boundaries of what's possible. We're not taking shortcuts. We're solving problems others won't even attempt. Because real progress doesn't come from the easy path. It comes from doing what others can't.

At Emmi AI, we proudly draw inspiration from Emmy Noether - one of the most influential mathematicians and physicists in history

Noether’s groundbreaking work on symmetry and conservation laws laid the foundation for modern physics. Her ability to simplify and generalize complex systems is the same philosophy that drives Emmi AI: advancing physics with AI to transform industrial engineering.

A true pioneer, Noether’s legacy continues to inspire innovation today!
