Dystr, an AI-powered engineering platform, has launched a new product leveraging generative AI designed to automate tasks, run analysis with visualizations and perform complex calculations 10 times faster.

Co-founded by Nabeel Allana (BASc ’16, mechatronics engineering) in 2021, Dystr’s new product helps mechanical and electrical engineers write and run code in the cloud seamlessly without software experience.

“Having seen many of my friends and colleagues wasting valuable time trying to write scripts and automate their repetitive tasks, it's exciting to see something you've built being adopted by them with such enthusiasm” said Allana, the CEO of Dystr. 

Current pilots underway include teams at Cruise, Meta, Google, Valve, a LiDAR company and a defense contractor.
