Estimated reading time: 1 minute

Altair, a global leader in computational intelligence, is thrilled to announce the release of Altair® HyperWorks® 2025, a best-in-class design and simulation platform for solving the world's most complex engineering challenges. At the forefront of this release is a bold vision of the future of product development: a zero-prototype world, where design is perfected in the virtual domain before reaching the physical world. By combining the power of artificial intelligence (AI), high-performance computing (HPC), and multiphysics simulation with cloud-based scalability and digital thread connectivity, Altair HyperWorks 2025 is more than a simulation platform – it's a launchpad for innovation.

"Altair HyperWorks 2025 builds on four decades of Altair's expertise in simulation, design, and optimization," said James R. Scapa, founder and chief executive officer, Altair. "By integrating advanced simulation technologies with AI and machine learning, automation, open architecture, and a connected digital thread, the platform accelerates design processes, fosters scalable cloud collaboration, and empowers teams to deliver smarter, faster, and more sustainable solutions. It is yet another leap in our vision of democratized computational intelligence."

AI-Powered Engineering and Optimization

Altair continues to pull away from the competition with our unparalleled AI-powered engineering, machine learning, and optimization capabilities. Physics prediction models powered by new transformer architectures deliver accurate simulations, even with limited or incomplete data. Machine learning models act as solvers, slashing simulation times while improving reliability. AI-enabled reduced order modeling (ROM) enables faster, more precise simulations of nonlinear systems, providing insights early in the design process.

Cloud-Based and SaaS Solutions

Embracing the shift to cloud-based and SaaS solutions, Altair is democratizing access to advanced engineering simulations with flexible infrastructure. The new Altair® DSim™ SaaS solution allows semiconductor designers to run unlimited simulations with a pay-as-you-go model, eliminating upfront costs and offering the freedom to scale on demand. And the Altair One® cloud innovation gateway enhances collaboration, providing instant access to simulation applications, data, and HPC resources.

Automation and Customization

New automation capabilities, including Python APIs, eliminate repetitive tasks, streamline data queries, and simplify report generation. For large-scale projects, advanced batch execution and task libraries reduce time spent on complex workflows. The platform's customization options allow users to tailor simulations to unique applications, such as modeling particle interactions in pharmaceuticals or agriculture.
