CurieOS
CurieOS puts your full team in one secure workspace. Scientists and engineers work together on the same files, data, software and AI agents. Technical work is different from general business work. It uses special software, special file formats and simulations. Each result must be correct, and you must be able to examine each step. CurieOS connects to these tools and formats, and it shows the work behind each answer.

Use Orb to screen candidate materials. Orb is our atomistic simulation code. Each CurieOS deployment includes Orb. Then record the results that the laboratory confirms.
Do fast CFD simulations of all design variants together with your CAD geometry. Each CurieOS deployment includes CFD.
Automate drawing, calculation, and submittal checks in Revit and AutoCAD.
Science & engineering agents
General-purpose AI assistants, such as ChatGPT, do not support the software, the data and the visualizations that you use for technical work. CurieOS supports them. It shows each step of its work.
Open the trace for each calculation. The trace shows the inputs, the equations and the intermediate values. Examine each step. Find errors and unsupported assumptions before they go into a drawing or a report.
CurieOS chat works with scientific and engineering file formats and runs domain tools inside the conversation.
Explore simulation results, drawings and data as visualizations in the conversation.
Supported software and formats
CurieOS works with the scientific and engineering
software and file formats your teams use today.
Open, inspect and edit these and many other file types directly in agents and apps.
All chemistry integrations
VASP
Quantum ESPRESSO
LAMMPS
RDKitCurieOS also connects to Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, Notion, GitHub and Salesforce.
Apps built in natural language
Retool, Power Automate, n8n and Zapier do not support scientific and engineering software, data and visualizations. CurieOS apps connect to your simulations, your drawings and your experiments. Each person on your team can automate his or her workflow. Developers are not necessary.

CurieOS science and engineering tools
Orbital Industries’ research team builds simulation models
and engineering tools that are ready to use in CurieOS.
Orb is Orbital Industries' atomistic simulation model. It runs 100,000-atom systems on one GPU and is 10× faster than Microsoft and Meta alternatives.
GPU-accelerated CFD built into CurieOS, run alongside geometry, operating conditions and design decisions.
A skills bank for drawing reviews, calculation checks and project-specific engineering work, reviewed and checked by MEP engineers before it enters the CurieOS library.
Company context
CurieOS is not a new database that you must fill and maintain. Connect the systems that your team uses now. CurieOS then uses your files, experiments, engineering knowledge and project history in each agent, app and workflow.
Connect the files, experiments, engineering knowledge and project history of your company. Agents, apps and workflows then use this data.
Security
CurieOS applies the access controls of your organization
to all agents, apps and AI workflows. CurieOS also records
all activity. You can examine these records at any time.
People and AI agents can only use the data and tools that their team has permission to use.
Examine the activity in all agents, apps and workflows in the workspace.
Keep all technical work and its access rules in one company workspace.
Choose the right foundation
General AI assistants do not operate your scientific and engineering software. Business platforms and low-code platforms do not support technical file formats. For a custom system, developers must build it and maintain it. CurieOS puts the workspace, the apps and the domain tools together in one system.

Explore advanced chemistryOne workspace for every discipline
Chemists, hardware engineers and engineering services teams work in the same workspace, on the same data. Each team builds directly on the work of the last, with no handoffs between separate tools.
Chemists screen and select materials
Hardware engineers design with those materials
Engineering teams check and deliver the final design
