Vorelios

Vorelios is building a foundation model for engineering physics. The model is trained on high fidelity simulations that the company generates itself across a wide range of geometries and operating conditions, then predicts the physics of a new design in milliseconds where a conventional solver run takes hours. Given a geometry and its operating conditions, it predicts pressure and skin friction across the whole surface, and integrating those fields yields lift, drag and moments. Changing the design updates the whole solution almost instantly. The first focus is aerodynamics, for aerospace teams whose designs wait on simulation. The vendor states that the approach is more than one million times faster than a high fidelity CFD run per design, that it can evaluate all 2,500 aircraft in the BlendedNet++ test set in under five seconds, and that it shows 20 to 30 percent lower error than the best previous published model on public aerodynamics benchmarks. The intended use is running sweeps, trade studies and optimization across thousands of variants and sending only the promising ones to the solver. The company says it is extending the model to heat transfer and structural mechanics so more of a design's behavior can be evaluated with one model. Vorelios describes itself as backed by Y Combinator. Access is through a contact form that routes to the founders, and no pricing or self serve plans are published.
