Godela develops AI-powered tools that help engineers understand, predict, and optimize the behavior of physical systems. Backed by Y Combinator’s X25 program, the company combines machine learning with physics-based modeling to turn a customer’s existing data into a model of how their system works. Users can ask what-if questions, explore design changes, and evaluate configurations, with predictions delivered in seconds rather than days.

Godela’s platform supports training, interactive exploration, and optimization. Its applications include data center thermal management, electronics cooling, aerodynamics, electromagnetics, and structural engineering. Engineers can investigate airflow and recirculation, heat transfer, drag and lift, magnetic fields, and structural response to loads, materials, and geometry. The company also offers a build-your-own approach for modeling other physical systems from a question, geometry, or scenario. Godela aims to help teams accelerate research and design, compare alternatives, and find effective configurations before building hardware or relying on lengthy simulation workflows. The company invites organizations to request a pilot and welcomes people interested in physics and AI to contact its team.
