Dassault Systèmes Expands the 3DEXPERIENCE AI-Native Agentic Platform with New Virtual Companion Skills to Co-Engineer with Humans

Dassault Systèmes announced the availability of its Virtual Companions AURA for program management, LEO for complex engineering and MARIE for deep science on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, as well as Virtual Twin Factories for industries.

Enriched with 19 competencies, AURA, LEO and MARIE unleash a new way to co-create and cooperate with users, to co-develop products, assets and services, solving complex industrial challenges in a faster and more efficient way.

Each competency, as a set of skills, guides users, reveals invisible insights, explores untapped spaces and executes relevant tasks across industrial workflows spanning business, product design, engineering, simulation, manufacturing and operations.

Virtual Companions provide units of work, using structured industry knowledge and know-how to interpret user intent, reason in an industrial context, take decisions and ultimately generate outcomes grounded in science and industry-accurate reality.

“As Virtual Twins are mission-critical and well-accepted in all industries, we are revealing the future of our Virtual Twin Factories,” said Pascal Daloz, CEO and Chairman, Dassault Systèmes. “Virtual Twin Factories are the new factories bringing together Virtual Companions as workers on par with humans, Generative Experiences as highly automated processes, and Virtual Twin as a Service as predefined Industry world models.”

Virtual Companions operate on AI factories from OUTSCALE, the global cloud and AI operator of Dassault Systèmes, deployed across three continents. This sovereign infrastructure lets customers of all sizes access industrial-grade AI at scale while their data and intellectual property remain fully protected.
