Divergent and webAI partner to advance human-AI collaboration

Divergent Technologies is partnering with webAI, a company that specializes in privacy-focused artificial intelligence solutions, to reshape digital manufacturing by embedding generative artificial intelligence directly into hardware systems, particularly targeting industrial robotics, logistics systems, and vehicles.

“From the start, Divergent’s mission has been to transform the built world with a fully digital manufacturing system,” said Lukas Czinger, Co-Founder, President and CEO of Divergent. “Partnering with webAI allows us to supercharge that mission. The combination of Divergent’s adaptive digital manufacturing capabilities with webAI’s intelligence will create next-generation products at scale across the world’s largest industries.”

Divergent’s DAPS (Divergent Adaptive Production System) is based on an AM production platform that integrates advanced technologies to deliver a transformative approach to manufacturing. Key features of DAPS already include AI-driven optimization, which automatically generates fully optimized structures and manufacturing instructions for a wide range of vehicles across air, land, sea, and space domains.

Using proprietary machines and patented alloys, Divergent can 3D print optimized structures tailored to specific applications at industrial rates and competitive costs. The system features the Divergent V-Cell, a universal assembler that automates the integration of component structures into complete vehicles.

By merging Divergent’s pioneering digital manufacturing capabilities with webAI’s cutting-edge distributed AI, the collaboration signals a shift toward smarter, more secure, and responsive AI-driven hardware, promising significant transformations across industries such as aerospace, defense, and automotive.

“This collaboration marks a pivotal advancement for AI-powered hardware,” said David Stout, Founder and CEO of webAI. “With webAI integrated into Divergent’s platform, we are changing not just the manufacturing process but fundamentally how advanced hardware systems operate— making them smarter, faster, and inherently secure.”
