Our story
Founded in 2025, SolidNetics is a cloud-native Physics-AI platform for metal additive manufacturing — predicting how a laser powder-bed fusion (LPBF) build will behave before any powder is melted: scan path, melt-pool thermal history, solidification microstructure, and part-scale residual stress and distortion.
Metal AM promises complex, high-value parts — but qualifying a build is slow and costly, dominated by trial-and-error prints and after-the-fact inspection. The high-fidelity physics that could predict the outcome is far too slow to run over a whole part, so it rarely makes it into the design loop.
SolidNetics closes that gap with a connected pipeline and a Physics-AI approach: run high-fidelity meso-scale physics once, learn it into fast surrogate models, then predict at part scale in minutes. Upload geometry, choose a stage, and run on the cloud — no meshing bottlenecks, no local hardware.
We are a multidisciplinary team of mechanical engineers, computational scientists, and ML & software developers with one mission: make metal AM predictable, so the first build is the right build.
