Dualizer

Dualizer (backed by Y Combinator, Fall 2026) builds AI-powered software for industrial process modeling, simulation, and optimization. Our platform turns process diagrams, operating data, and engineering knowledge into rigorous, physics-based process models--dramatically reducing the manual work required to build, calibrate, and optimize them. Dualizer combines first-principles simulation, optimization, and machine learning to help process engineers move from raw plant information to decision-ready models faster. Teams can use Dualizer to reconstruct process systems, calibrate models against real operating data, diagnose performance, evaluate operating scenarios, and identify higher-value operating conditions. We are building a new generation of process engineering software for chemical, energy, and industrial companies: faster to deploy, easier to use, and grounded in the physics of the underlying process.
