Transform test data into powerful self-learning models for a smarter approach to design validation and test.

Monolith is built specifically to solve engineering test and validation challenges. Our tools are custom-tailored based on hundreds of projects with top engineering teams to address specific testing challenges like optimising complex test plans, inspecting hundreds of test channels for anomalies, calibrating complex systems to meet specific requirements, or finding the root-cause of head-scratching failures.  Built by engineers for engineers, we put your test data to work to solve real engineering challenges.

Four ways to use AI to cut validation costs

Build shorter test plans, create fewer prototypes, find errors faster, and validate designs more quickly using AI-based self-learning models. 

 

1. Automatically detect faulty measurements


To avoid downstream issues, your engineers must tediously inspect test data for errors. One failed sensor or wiring malfunction can render thousands of dollars in testing useless and set your schedule back significantly.

  • Find outliers in your test data fast with intuitive visualisation
  • Prepare your data for optimal AI performance
  • Catch bad data now to avoid re-engineering later

2. Predict the critical tests to run


Test too much and you waste time confirming what you already know. Test too little and risk missing performance issues. Schedule, quality and your career depend on finding the balance. 

  • Run the most important tests and skip the rest
  • Optimize resources spent on costly test rigs and facilities
  • Validate your designs faster with fewer prototype iterations 

3. Determine the cause of system failures faster

 

Product design issues during validation risk launch delays and lost market share. Engineers are under pressure to identify critical parameters causing failure, quickly analyze the root cause, and predict how the product will perform in changing conditions.

  • Predict what design changes will most likely fix failures
  • Identify components causing sub-optimal performance
  • Avoid long delays and uncertainty in the validation process

4. Calibrate for thousands of conditions

 

Designing highly complex, non-linear systems to meet stringent performance standards is challenging. Predicting which combination of inputs will deliver the optimal output, in all operating conditions, is next to impossible.

  • Calibrate complex dynamic systems
  • Ensure your system performs to spec in all conditions
  • Find best-fit values across 1000's of inputs and conditions

It is imperative to get to market faster


You need to get to market faster with revolutionary new EV batteries but you can't rely on your current methods of physical testing and simulation. 

In our 2024 study, 58% say AI is crucial to stay competitive. Here are other highlights:

 

  • 64% believe it's urgent to reduce battery validation  
  • 66% say it's imperative to reduce physical testing
  • 62% indicate virtual tools don't fully ensure designs meet validation requirements
