Endra

In 1997, Garry Kasparov became the first world chess champion to lose a match to a computer. IBM's Deep Blue beat the man widely regarded as the greatest player in the history of the game. Mr. Kasparov brings a rare perspective on human vs. machine. He is a leading voice for keeping humans in the loop as AI creates more autonomous realities, a vision we share and built Endra around. There is no one we would rather have open this conversation. We are honored to welcome Mr. Kasparov as a speaker at Epoch, our product release event, September 14 in Las Vegas. Join us that evening, alongside leaders from across the industry, to see what comes next for global engineering organizations. Spots are limited - apply today. Link in the comments.

How did we get Garry Kasparov excited about MEP engineering? Simple. It's a $150B industry that can't find enough engineers, and AI is about to change it the way it's changing coding and law. In 1997, Kasparov became the first world champion to lose to a machine. He spent the next three decades arguing the opposite of what everyone expected: that humans working with machines beat machines working alone. That is the thesis Endra is built on. Last week I met him in the Nevada desert to put it to the test in my own industry. We covered engineering, AI, Putin, and what the next decade looks like for the engineers who design the physical world. Full interview out in the upcoming weeks. (and yes, unfortunately, we also played chess)

AI just moved into electrical engineering. Endra Power Studio is now live, after two years in the making. Forget months of drafting in one tool, calculating in another and coordinating in a third. Endra Power Studio produces your models, drawings, schedules, calculations, diagrams and documentation - in minutes, instead of months. AI will completely transform how we design and engineer the physical world we live and work in. Today is the first step in that direction. Super proud of the team!!

Endra Power Studio is the agentic and purpose-built platform for electrical engineers. Today, brilliant engineers spend their days moving 3D objects, redrawing single-lines, rebuilding panel schedules and rerunning calculations every time a plan changes. Not because it requires their talent, but because there was no other way. That era is ending. Earlier this month at Epoch in Las Vegas, my colleagues Sam Miller, PE and William Ludwig showed Power Studio live on stage. It takes the architectural model and generates the complete power design: 3D unit placement, circuiting, load calculations, panel schedules and single-line diagrams. When the building changes, the design updates instantly. Every calculation is fully traceable. Engineers stay in control of every decision. Engineers should spend their time engineering. Now they can. The firms that embrace this shift will deliver more, win more and attract the best talent in the industry. The ones that wait will be competing against it. We intend to lead it. Full live demo from Las Vegas in the comments.

Final call: Epoch registration closes tonight. Link in the comments - we look forward meeting you all in Las Vegas!
