Ansys SimAI
Physics agnostic AI platform for simulation that trains models on existing simulation data to predict new design performance in minutes, offered as SimAI Pro for desktop component studies and SimAI Premium for cloud scale modeling.
What it does and how it connects
Ansys SimAI is a cloud-enabled generative AI platform for simulation that trains AI models on existing simulation data to predict new design performance in minutes. It takes a physics-agnostic approach: instead of relying on geometric parameters to define a design, it uses the shape of the design itself as the input, learning a data-driven representation of the underlying physics from previous computations.
The workflow runs in three steps: upload data, train an AI model, and predict. Models can be trained on previously generated Ansys or non-Ansys data, and the platform is designed for users without coding experience or deep learning expertise. Typically 30 to 100 simulation results are required to produce a model with sufficient accuracy, per the vendor product page.
The 2026 R1 release introduced a two-tier offering: SimAI Pro, a desktop solution for local, component-level AI using workstation GPUs, and SimAI Premium, the full cloud-scale solution. A Python SDK, PySimAI, is part of the PyAnsys ecosystem for using the platform from Python. Vendor coverage cites customer use including Sumitomo Riko accelerating simulation cycles over 10 times on rubber bush mechanical performance.
