Keep your options open for longer.
Evidence at the conceptual design stage, when change is still cheap.
In a period marked by constant change and uncertainty, being able to adapt without redoing everything limits risk. That is why it pays to keep options open and close them with evidence, not intuition.

Each line is a design option; each dashed line, new evidence. Options close when the evidence arrives, not before. In the end a few remain and a person chooses one (red circle).

- Decision platform · In development
Design Engines
Brings together alternatives, conflicting criteria and constraints, and establishes what evidence each choice needs.
- First evidence engine · Physics and aerodynamics
AeroFlow
AI aerodynamic assessment from 2D views, before CAD.
The next evidence engines are open to industrial collaboration for joint research and development.
