KreatX · Pilots, deployment and enablement
KreatX is KREAT's applied team. We work alongside your R&D engineers to prove the platform on a real problem, fit it into how you already work, and build the skills to run it without us.
The engagement arc
Each stage moves more of the work to your team, until routine problems no longer need us.
KREAT leads. Your engineers join every review.
The work is shared. Your team takes more each cycle.
Your team leads. We coach and certify.
Your team owns it. We support the hard problems.
Illustrative. The balance at each stage is set with you.
How we work with you
Every engagement runs on the KREAT platform and is built to hand over. Choose the depth that matches where your team is today.
One nominated problem, run end to end on the platform alongside your engineers.
Best for: a first evaluation or a paid proof of concept
For organisations running several programmes. KREAT applied engineers work inside your team and run programmes alongside you.
Best for: moving from one pilot to a standing capability
Structured cohorts that teach the method on your own problems, then certify the people who will carry it.
Best for: rolling the platform out across sites and functions
Scope, duration and commercial terms are agreed for each engagement.
Inside a pilot
A pilot follows KRAFT's three engines. Timing depends on the problem and is agreed at the start.
Success criteria, decision owners and the engineers involved are set before work starts.
Shared governing physics connects your problem to solutions other fields have already found.
Raw insights become defensible concepts, traceable from source to claim.
Concepts are screened against governing physics before any simulation or prototype spend.
Your team reviews the results, chooses the next step and keeps the workspace and playbook.
Typical shape, following KRAFT's engine sequence. The first physics-validated concept set takes 8 to 10 weeks.
What you keep
A pilot is judged on what remains once we step back.
Concept directions with patent-ready documentation and full provenance from problem to claim.
A concept-validation capability your engineers can evaluate directly, not a study or a slide deck.
A playbook, and people who have used the method on your own problem.
What to scale, what to change and what to stop, with the reasoning attached.
How engagements start
Every programme is confidential and outcomes cannot be shared, but direct references can be.
Thorough technical review and evaluation, then signed a paid POC.
Preliminary evaluation, then signed up for a POC, including their Engineering and IP teams.
Currently running a live SIDD-phase problem using KRAFT.
Open programmes
Individuals and innovation teams can join open programmes without the KREAT products. They are a way to try the method first.
Public courses for leaders who want a working grounding in innovation.
Masterclass series that take an existing innovation team further.
The four programmes behind enablement. Intake dates on request.
Faculty
Enablement is led by KREAT's founder and its Chief Mentor, who also shaped KRAFT's physics-grounded approach.

Direction, solution and market, in one connected sequence.
Questions
No. KreatX runs on the KREAT platform and is built to hand over. Engagements have a defined scope and end with your team able to run the work, rather than an open-ended advisory arrangement.
A nominated problem, a decision owner and a small group of engineers who join the reviews. You do not need equations, CAD models or PLM integration to start.
Ownership and confidentiality terms are agreed in the engagement scope, before work starts.
The first physics-validated concept set takes 8 to 10 weeks. Spark courses run 4 to 8 hours. Embedded work and enablement are scoped with you, since length depends on the programmes and cohorts involved.
Not for open courses such as Spark and Amplify. Pilots and enablement are built around the products, because teams learn the method by applying it to their own problems.
Scope a pilot or request a demo. We reply with the next step and who needs to be involved.
Start with one problem
A few lines is enough. We reply with how a pilot would work on a problem like yours.
