AI copilot for construction engineering
One‑liner & Mission
We are building an AI copilot that helps engineers design faster, stay compliant, and reduce costly errors
Starting with Aryx, the engineering copilot.
Mission:
We cut engineering time and errors by replacing static documents and disconnected tools with an AI copilot that delivers instant answers to any domain question, automated compliance checks, and faster design workflows.

Backing message: Built inside an operating family-owned EPC group with decades of experience, real project data and an unlimited test ground. Explained next.
Problems (Today's Reality)
Engineering is the most critical and foundational stage of any EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) project. Mistakes at this stage can lead to hundreds of millions of dollars in rework at later stages.

Knowledge drain
Senior engineers are scarce, onboarding new talent is slow, and critical knowledge walks out the door with people.

Knowledge trapped in silos
Design logic, past calculations, and specs are buried in PDFs and disconnected documents instead of being reusable.

Compliance is manual
Engineers must dig through thousands of pages of codes and standards, making the process slow and error-prone.

Feedback Flywheel
Each project → more labeled data
→ better models → broader coverage.
The First Building Block - MVP
Aryx is already in development and forming the foundation of the larger vision:
Aryx (Engineering Copilot)
Capabilities
  • Instant answers to any engineering questions across disciplines (mechanical, electrical, civil, process, etc.)
  • Grounded in standards & project docs — every answer is cited and compliance-ready
  • Automates tedious tasks — drafts specs, SOWs, calculation notes, and checklists
  • Roadmap-ready — future integrations with live codes, calculators, and workflows
Future Vision
In its mature form, Armeta AI will be the platform where engineers design, learn, and collaborate.
Knowledge & Compliance Intelligence
AI-powered access to best global practices, past projects and standards — ensuring every design is compliant and backed by proven knowledge.
Talent & Proficiency Platform
A digital space that connects engineers to projects and helps them grow their expertise through AI-driven guidance and proficiency tracking.
Collaboration Hub for Engineers
A shared platform where multi-discipline engineers can co-create, review, and streamline workflows.
3D Model Repository
Centralized storage and retrieval of 3D models, making design assets reusable across projects and teams.
All of these modules plug into a single, ever-growing knowledge core fed by global practice and decades of proprietary project data supplied by our partner network. That is the horizon we're marching toward.
Secret Sauce \ Advantages
Our Co-Founders have been running a family-owned group of companies for 15 years. The group includes some of the largest and most diversified engineering companies in Kazakhstan, as well as two joint ventures with world-leading EPC firms such as Technip Energies and Maire Tecnimont. Our family-owned group employs over 1,000 people and currently has a $5 billion contract backlog. We have extensive experience executing the largest and most complex industrial projects, which provides a foundation and expertise that no one has for building Armeta AI.
Proprietary Data
Decades of real projects across oil & gas, mining, energy, infrastructure and more industrial segments.
Unlimited Test Ground
We can test and use our solutions directly on live projects within our group and with our partners.
Distribution Edge
Access to EPC decision‑makers; credibility from executed mega‑projects.
Feedback Flywheel
Each project → more labeled data → better models → broader coverage.
Our deep domain expertise is complemented by strong software development and AI capabilities, driven by our CTO and a team of young, ambitious, and hungry developers and AI/ML engineers.
Why Now
AI inflection
Foundation models + retrieval unlock domain-specific solutions across engineering.
Digitized Data
Decades of drawings/specs are now indexable
Rising Complexity:
Norms and standards are growing too complex to manage manually.
Industry pressure
Labor shortages, ESG demands, and capex discipline drive automation & standardization.
Inside edge
Armeta AI is built inside an engineering group - with live data, real projects, and instant feedback loops.
Competitive Landscape
Competitors
  • Generic AI copilots → "GPT"-based tools with no engineering depth
  • Knowledge search → RAG tools that retrieve docs but miss engineering workflows
  • Digitization tools → startups that scan PDFs/CAD, but stop short of compliance or multi-discipline use
  • Legacy software (CAD/CAE/PLM) → slow, fragmented, and only retrofitting AI on old stacks
Our edge
  • Built for engineers → Aryx specializes in multi-discipline engineering, not generic chat
  • Compliance-native → grounded in codes, standards, and project docs from day one
  • Proprietary datasets → decades of internal + partner projects, unavailable to competitors
  • Proven in real projects → developed inside live engineering workflows with instant feedback
  • Platform foundation → Aryx is step one; vision expands way further
Existing solutions are fragmented, outdated, and only scratch the surface of the real problems.
