German agentic artificial intelligence startup Synera GmbH today announced that it has raised $40 million in new funding to scale up its engineering automation platform and expand across the U.S., the Asia-Pacific region and Europe.
Founded in 2018, Synera offers an agentic AI platform for industrial engineering teams that deploys AI agents that autonomously execute complex product development workflows across the full engineering lifecycle, connecting design, simulation and optimization processes into a single orchestrated system.
The company’s platform addresses a market where engineering is becoming a new major frontier for AI adoption as rising competition, particularly from China, forces companies to deliver high-quality products faster and at lower cost. However, though investment into AI by manufacturing companies is increasing, manufacturing chief information officers and technology executives report that only an average of 41% of AI and generative AI prototypes reach production, according to data from Gartner.
Synera argues that there is a fundamental disconnect between AI investment and real-world application, leaving engineering workflows across design, simulation and optimization reliant on manual processes, siloed systems and constrained by fragmented legacy tools. “Engineering is the backbone of every industrial company but remains one of the least digitized and automated functions that was, until recently, largely inaccessible to AI,” said Chief Executive Dr. Moritz Maier.
The company is enabling what it calls a new mode of engineering powered by purpose‑built AI agents. Described as “JARVIS for engineers,” the platform allows companies to deploy teams of agents that don’t only assist but autonomously execute complex workflows across the product lifecycle. They connect existing computer-aided technology tools, data, knowledge and processes into a unified, orchestrated system.
Synera’s platform integrates with more than 80 computer-aided design and engineering tools and runs on-premises, keeping proprietary engineering data within a customer’s own infrastructure.
The company has more than 60 enterprise customers across 15 countries, including the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Airbus SE, BMW, Volvo Lastvagnar AB, Brose Fahrzeugteile SE & Co. KG, L’Oréal S.A., Miele & Cie. KG and Andreas Stihl AG & Co. KG.
The Series B funding round was led by Revaia, with Capgemini SE, UVC Partners GmbH, BMW iVentures, Cherry Ventures Management GmbH and Spark Capital Partners also participating.
“This funding enables us to deliver a fundamentally new mode of engineering, where AI agents operate as true digital engineers, executing complex workflows across the entire value chain,” added Dr. Maier. “Now, we can connect tools and knowledge across departments. We can redefine how hardware engineering is delivered. The companies that embrace this shift will innovate faster, cut costs at scale, and set the pace for their industries.”
The new funding takes the total raised by Synera to $58.1 million.
