About Tanuki
The intelligent platform for engineering and research
Tanuki brings together AI, computational mechanics and scientific computing into one place, so researchers and engineers can go from idea to insight without writing a line of code.
01
Describe
Specify a part, structure, or physical scenario in plain language. Tanuki interprets the intent and sets up the geometry, physics and boundary conditions for you.
02
Generate
Simulation-ready 3D geometry is created programmatically. Fully parametric, mesh-ready, and editable through follow-up conversation.
03
Simulate
Run structural, thermal, and fluid simulations using research-grade solvers. Physics choices, boundary conditions and material models are handled automatically.
04
Explore
Inspect stress, displacement, temperature and velocity fields in an interactive 3D viewer. Results are delivered directly in the browser.
Research-grade simulation,
unlocked.
The most powerful simulation methods in the world live inside universities. They are developed by small teams of researchers, published in academic journals, and locked behind complex toolchains that demand dedicated workstations, costly licenses, and months of specialist training.
That means the engineers and scientists who could benefit most from these advances rarely get access to them. Innovation stays in the lab instead of reaching the problems where it is needed.
Tanuki exists to close that gap. We package cutting-edge computational mechanics and machine learning into a platform that runs in the browser, requires no installation, and speaks plain language. The same rigour, none of the friction.
