Authentise launched Whisper, an AI platform designed to capture, understand, and act on engineering intent across the idea-to-part lifecycle. Positioned as an “agentic AI backbone,” Whisper connects fragmented engineering knowledge and turns it into governed, real-time action inside existing enterprise systems.

“Engineering intent is the missing layer in digital transformation,” says Andre Wegner, CEO of Authentise. “We’ve spent 14 years helping companies digitize workflows. Whisper is the next step. It doesn’t ask engineers to change how they work. It listens, understands, and acts.”

Whisper delivers gains in compliance, coordination, and execution. Whisper captures engineering activity as it happens across tools like Slack, email, meetings, and enterprise systems. It structures that data, applies context and permissions, and acts on it directly within existing workflows.

Results include earlier risk detection; real-time compliance checks; automated updates across enterprise resource planning, product lifecycle management, and quality management systems; and full provenance and audit trails tied to parts and projects.

A Platform, Not a Feature

Whisper is not a single application but a foundation for building intelligent engineering workflows. It enables real-time compliance monitoring, project health detection, and automatic updates across enterprise systems, all driven by configurable agents operating in the background.

Example use cases include:

  • Real-time generation of technical documentation
  • Updating task lists, PLM records, and ERP data automatically

Open, Extensible, and Source-Available

Whisper is released as source-available, allowing ability to extend and deploy it within unique environments.

Initial access requires a low upfront commitment, with full costs only incurred once value is determined.

Early access programs available immediately for select partners and customers. Find out more information on www.authentise.com/whisper.
