Anyone can buy a license. What actually moves your technology forward is Ansys set up right, plus application engineers who've solved your class of problem before. We handle both, and it's free to start: free evaluation licenses, free engineering support to build your MVP, and a free eligibility check for the discounted Ansys Startup Program. Incorporated, in stealth, or still pre-company, before or after your funding lands.
Get hands-on with the exact Ansys tools your project needs — evaluate the real software on your real problem, free, before committing to anything.
A free consultation on whether you qualify for the Ansys Startup Program — significantly discounted, bundled access to multiphysics software, HPC, and the Ansys Learning Hub for eligible early-stage companies.
Talk your project through with an application engineer who'll help you learn and apply Ansys to your MVP — models, physics, meshing, and results you can stand behind.
The program gives young companies bundled, discounted access to the same simulation firepower the primes use. Eligibility is generous, which is why it's the lowest-friction way to get Ansys into your hands.
Not sure if you qualify? That's exactly the kind of question a quick call answers. Eligibility and pricing are confirmed case-by-case.
Each bundle includes HPC scalability. Choose the physics your technology depends on:
We're the engineering muscle — not grant writers. We help you get the tools running and producing credible results.
We scope the exact products, HPC, and licensing your problem needs — no over- or under-buying.
Application engineers help you build the model correctly the first time and interpret the results.
Get your team productive fast with guided onboarding and the Ansys Learning Hub.
Start on an evaluation now; scale into full licenses when your award lands. We work with your timeline.
You don't have to wait for a license to get going. These are free, straight from Ansys. When you're ready to put them on your real problem, email us and we'll set up the eval and the engineer.
We don't prepare, review, or advise on grant, SBIR/STTR, or contract applications, and we don't fill out any documents for you. Our lane is simulation software and the engineering to build and validate your technology. Staying in that lane keeps us clear of regulated advisory territory, and keeps us sharp at the one thing we actually do.
