About Semios

Semios is an advanced artificial intelligence platform specifically engineered for systems engineering and technical documentation. It utilizes Natural Language Processing (NLP) to conduct deep semantic analyses of requirements and procedure documents. The primary objective is to enhance editorial quality, minimize project risks, and accelerate time-to-market by ensuring that technical specifications are clear, precise, and compliant with international standards. Unlike generic AI models, Semios provides reproducible and explainable results based on validated engineering norms, making it suitable for safety-critical environments. The solution is built around several core modules including semantic diagnostics, automated reformulation, and AI-driven requirement generation. It also features advanced tools for checking the consistency between different requirements and identifying over- or under-specification within a project. In practice, Semios integrates directly into established workflows, providing add-ins for Microsoft Word, Excel, and popular Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) tools like Siemens Polarion and IBM DOORS. This allows users to trigger analyses with a single click, receiving immediate alerts based on a library of over 80 pre-configured detection rules derived from global standards. This tool is designed for high-stakes industries where technical precision is critical, such as aeronautics, defense, space, medical devices, and cybersecurity. It serves a wide range of stakeholders, including project owners, contractors, and subcontractors who manage complex systems. Large organizations like SNCF, CNES, and EDF utilize the platform to manage massive volumes of data—sometimes hundreds of thousands of requirements—where manual review would be prohibitively time-consuming or prone to human error. The system helps bridge the gap between senior experts and junior writers by providing real-time feedback and educational comments. What sets Semios apart from general-purpose large language models is its focus on reproducibility and security. Every analysis result is explainable and follows validated engineering standards like ISO, IEEE, and INCOSE. Security is a major differentiator; the system is designed to ensure that sensitive technical data is neither stored nor transmitted over the internet, addressing the confidentiality concerns of defense and aerospace firms. Furthermore, the platform is highly customizable, allowing companies to integrate their own specific business rules or use the engine as a white-label solution via API.

Semios pros & cons

Pros

  • Extremely fast analysis speeds of approximately 0.2 seconds per requirement.
  • No data is stored or sent to the internet, providing high security for sensitive projects.
  • Supports major international engineering standards like ISO, IEEE, and INCOSE out of the box.
  • Measurable productivity gains of 30% to 50% for writing and review circuits.
  • Explainable AI results that provide educational feedback rather than just automated changes.

Cons

  • Pricing is not public and requires contacting the sales team for a custom quote.
  • The specialized focus on systems engineering makes it less relevant for non-technical documentation.
  • Requires high-level technical expertise to properly configure custom business rules.
  • Full feature set for consistency and extraction is scheduled for late 2024 and 2025.

Semios use cases

  • Systems engineers in aeronautics can automate the verification of thousands of requirements against ISO standards to ensure safety and compliance.
