PHILADELPHIA - PennZone -- Philadelphia, USA — Authentise today announced the launch of Whisper, a new AI platform designed to capture, understand, and act on engineering intent across the entire idea-to-part lifecycle. Positioned as an "agentic AI backbone," Whisper connects fragmented engineering knowledge, turning it into governed, real-time action inside existing enterprise systems.

For decades, engineering organizations have struggled with a simple problem: the most valuable knowledge never makes it into systems. It lives in emails, meetings, chat threads, and informal decisions. Whisper changes that.

"Engineering intent is the missing layer in digital transformation," said 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."

While long-term value comes from capturing engineering intent, Whisper delivers immediate gains in compliance, coordination, and execution. Early partners helped shape that direction.

"As part of the steering committee, we pushed hard on one thing: this had to work in the real world, not just in theory," said Rob Weighill, Group Systems Architect at Prototal Group. "In a high-throughput environment, the challenge is keeping projects moving across teams. Seeing Whisper come together has been genuinely exciting because it doesn't just surface insights, it takes action directly in the tools our teams already use."

From Lost Knowledge to Governed Action

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.

The result:

• Earlier risk detection
• Real-time compliance checks
• Automated updates across ERP, PLM, and QMS systems
• Full provenance and audit trails tied to parts and projects
• Built for Reality, Not Greenfield
  
  Authentise built Whisper after encountering resistance to new tools, even when they delivered value. The insight: the problem isn't capability, it's inertia.

  "Everyone already has tools. No one wants another interface," Wegner added.
  
  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:
  • Automated compliance monitoring against internal and external standards
  • Live project health detection and alerts
  • Real-time generation of technical documentation
  • Updating task lists, PLM records, and ERP data automatically
  • Detecting IP leakage or duplication through digital fingerprinting
  
  Many of these already exist, others can be built by end-users or their partners. Each of these is powered by configurable "effectors" that act on insights generated by Whisper's AI core.
  
  By capturing engineering intent and activity as it happens, Whisper lays the foundation for more adaptive, traceable engineering systems.
