Background

Build Safer Vehicles, Faster

AI-powered requirements engineering that transforms complexity into clarity. European technology. Automotive expertise. Compliance guaranteed.

How KIMBA Works

KIMBA transforms requirements engineering through three foundational AI-powered technical approaches. Each addresses specific pain points in safety-critical product development.

Requirements Management

The core of the KIMBA solution lies in leveraging AI to revolutionize traditional Requirements Management by processing vast amounts of complex, unstructured data. Features include intuitive search and chat for requirements, automated quality checks, and document comparison for consistency verification.

MBSE System Modelling

KIMBA revolutionizes Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) by making system modeling more accessible and automated through AI. Automated generation of MBSE models from textual requirements, natural language interaction for model analysis, test case generation, and simplified access for Systems Engineers across disciplines.

Digital Shadow

To ensure successful and safe deployment of AI in highly regulated and safety-critical domains, KIMBA develops a "Digital Shadow" for its AI components. This provides transparency through analysis and mapping of AI backend processes, intelligibility of decision paths, and control and reliability of the models.
