DEP Launches AI-Powered Engineering Platform in India

Detroit Engineered Products (DEP) launched DEP AIWorks in India on 9th April 2026, an engineering platform that integrates predictive AI, generative capabilities, and simulation-driven intelligence to reduce product development cycles across industries.

The platform, built on DEP's existing MeshWorks environment, uses neural networks and physics-informed models alongside established CAE solvers. DEP has positioned it as physics-agnostic and tool-agnostic, allowing organisations to apply it across varied datasets, engineering domains, and development stages — from early design to validation and manufacturing.

DEP AIWorks offers modular capabilities including adaptive model training, rapid prediction, automated parameterisation, optimisation, generative design, and centralised data management. The company says engineers can build and deploy models within weeks and reduce simulation turnaround from hours to minutes.

"DEP AIWorks reflects the next step in how engineering organizations will adopt AI, not as a standalone tool, but as an integrated part of the product development lifecycle," said Radha Krishnan, President & Founder, DEP. "By combining decades of simulation expertise with advances in AI, we are enabling teams to move faster while maintaining engineering rigor and reliability."

The launch followed the DEP MeshWorks X AIWorks Conclave 2026, a five-city event series held over two weeks across Bengaluru, Delhi NCR, Hyderabad, Pune, and Chennai, which brought together engineering leaders, OEMs, and technology partners.

DEP AIWorks is designed to operate alongside MeshWorks and targets sectors including automotive, aerospace, energy, manufacturing, and telecom.
