What Synera does
Synera makes a platform in which AI agents carry out engineering workflows, working on data in tools for computer-aided design, simulation and product lifecycle management. According to the company's release, it connects more than 80 engineering tools, and it can be run on a customer's own premises so that engineering data and intellectual property stay inside the company.
The company claims it can speed up product development by up to ten times and says it draws on more than 100,000 workflows. These are the company's own figures.
Synera was founded in Bremen in 2018 by Moritz Maier, Sebastian Möller-Lafore and Daniel Siegel, according to The Next Web. It was originally called ELISE and was renamed in 2022. It also has a presence in Boston.
Customers and growth
Synera said it serves more than 60 enterprise customers in 15 countries. Customers named in its release include NASA, BMW, Airbus, Volvo Trucks, Hyundai, Brose, L'Oréal, Miele, STIHL and ARRK Engineering.
The company said its annual recurring revenue doubled in 2025 and that 60% of new business came from its AI offering. It did not publish revenue figures or a headcount.
What the money is for
Synera plans to expand in the United States, Asia-Pacific and Europe, and to build a dedicated team in France. It also plans to grow its existing teams in the US and Germany. The stated ambition is to set the standard for agentic research and development in sectors including aerospace, defence, consumer electronics, home appliances, automotive and industrial engineering.
Jérémie Falzone, a partner at Revaia, described Synera as a new category of enterprise software in which AI agents operate as part of the organisation itself. Maier said engineering is the backbone of every industrial company.
Maier said in the release that AI agents can now act as digital engineers across the value chain, and that companies embracing the shift will innovate faster, cut costs at scale and set the pace for their industries. Falzone described Synera as an AI-first company that specialises in engineering. The release did not say how many people Synera employs, only that its teams in the US and Germany are growing.
Julien Hohenstein, BMW's vice president of artificial intelligence, was quoted in the release saying the platform shows how AI can fundamentally reshape product development.
