VIKTOR is a platform for building apps, workflows, and AI agents that automate engineering tasks using AI, code, or both, connecting tools like CAD, BIM, FEM, spreadsheets, and databases into a single workflow. It targets engineering organizations—particularly structural and civil engineers—to capture engineering knowledge as reusable, governed automation that can be shared and scaled across projects.

Also known as VIKTOR.AI

Company profile

researched Aug 2026

VIKTOR (viktor.ai) offers a platform for automating engineering workflows through AI-powered apps and agents. The platform is positioned to connect to an organization's existing software stack and to allow automation to be scaled across teams, with an emphasis on outputs that are trusted, verified and transparent.

The company publishes a library of ready-to-use engineering applications organized by discipline, including geotechnical, structural, BIM, MEP, architecture, hydraulics, process and mechanical engineering. Examples include a concrete beam calculator checking bending and shear under ACI 318 and Eurocode 2, pile axial capacity and P-Y curve calculators, consolidation settlement analysis, steel beam capacity checks, IFC model viewing, quantity takeoff and cost analysis tools, pump and duct system curve calculators, pipe sizing, water hammer estimation, sun and shadow studies, buildable area and parking layout estimators, Manning's-equation channel sizing and weir/orifice/hydraulic-jump checks, knockout drum and evaporator sizing, heat exchanger area and control valve sizing, and shaft torque, fillet weld, fatigue life (S-N) and rolling bearing life checkers. Apps typically combine calculation with visualization, pass/fail compliance indicators and report export to formats such as PDF, Word and XLSX. Each listed app can be opened directly or used as a starting point to build a custom version.

Market position

VIKTOR positions itself as a platform for AI-powered engineering automation that integrates with an organization's existing software stack rather than replacing it, emphasizing trusted, verified and transparent results and safe scaling across teams.

Technology

The platform is used to build apps and agents that perform engineering calculations and connect to existing engineering software. Published applications implement codified engineering methods and standards — for example ACI 318 and Eurocode 2 for concrete design, Manning's equation for open-channel hydraulics, the Joukowsky method for water hammer, Terzaghi one-dimensional consolidation, the Souders–Brown method for vapor–liquid separator sizing, LMTD-based heat exchanger sizing, and S-N fatigue and L10 bearing life methods. Apps handle IFC building models for viewing, class breakdowns, material-based volume takeoff and cost reporting, and generate charts, 2D/3D views, diagrams and exportable reports in PDF, Word and Excel formats.

Go-to-market

The website offers self-service access to a catalog of pre-built discipline-specific applications that visitors can open and run directly, alongside an option to build a custom version of each app, providing a trial-style entry point to the platform.

Engineering teams and organizations across disciplines, including geotechnical, structural, BIM, MEP, architectural, hydraulic, process and mechanical engineering, with the platform designed to scale across teams.
