P-1 AI
P-1 AI is a deep-tech startup building engineering AGI for the physical world. Its product, an anthropomorphized AI engineer agent named Archie, is trained on proprietary semi-synthetic, physics-based datasets to reason across multiphysics design problems and use the same complex engineering tools human engineers use. Currently operating at the level of a junior mechanical and electrical engineer, Archie is already working with design partners on data center cooling and critical power systems, with expansion planned into automotive, aerospace, and defense. Founded by former Airbus and United Technologies CTO Paul Eremenko alongside Google DeepMind and Airbus veterans, the company raised a $23M seed round in 2025 led by Radical Ventures.
