SoftInWay Introduces AxSTREAM AI to Accelerate Engineering Decisions with Workflow-Aware Intelligence

Burlington, MA — January 28th, 2026 — SoftInWay, a leading provider of turbomachinery design and thermal-fluid system modeling solutions, today announced the release of AxSTREAM AI, a new AI-powered engineering environment designed to reduce modeling friction, shorten iteration cycles, and help engineering teams reach confident design insights earlier in the workflow.

Designed for early-stage modeling, analysis, and decision-making, AxSTREAM AI delivers AI-assisted modeling, optimization, and design exploration capabilities. Engineers can define turbomachinery components and system-level models based on design intent, constraints, and operating conditions, then rapidly generate and evaluate candidate geometries to explore viable design configurations early in the development process. AxSTREAM AI also helps engineers assess cost drivers and tradeoffs early, enabling more cost-aware design decisions while preserving transparency and physics-based validation.

AxSTREAM AI can be used as a standalone environment or embedded within AxSTREAM System Simulation, enabling engineers working on turbomachinery design, optimization, and thermal-fluid systems to move efficiently from concept to validated system behavior—without disrupting established engineering practices.

Developed in line with SoftInWay’s AxSTREAM platform philosophy, the AI environment brings workflow and physics-aware intelligence directly into system modeling and turbomachinery design and analysis, while maintaining full engineer control and visibility into assumptions, inputs, results, and established turbomachinery engineering practices.

“These updates are about making AxSTREAM easier and faster to use for real engineering work,” said Valentine Moroz, COO of SoftInWay. “AxSTREAM AI is not a black box or a replacement for engineering judgment. It is designed to assist engineers within their workflow, helping them reach confident decisions earlier while maintaining engineering accuracy and best practices.”

The initial release also enhances Peter, SoftInWay’s AI workmate, with agentic capabilities. Peter actively assists engineers with tasks such as configuring system models, modifying elements, and executing analysis steps directly within the AxSTREAM System Simulation workflow, reducing manual effort while keeping engineers in control.

Together, these capabilities strengthen AxSTREAM’s role in system-level analysis, turbomachinery design optimization, and digital twin development, enabling engineers to build and evolve digital representations that reflect real operating behavior, support trade studies, and improve decision-making across the asset lifecycle.

AxSTREAM AI reflects SoftInWay’s commitment to holistic modeling, coupled 0D–3D physics, and practical, engineer-driven workflows, and is developed in close collaboration with SoftInWay’s global engineering, consulting, and support teams.
