What is Instant Equation?
Remembering complex engineering equations sucks! As a Mechanical Engineer frustrated by legacy tooling, I built a simple equation search and retrieval tool called Instant Equation. Existing online sources for equations are inconsistent, and while LLMs are powerful, they are prone to hallucination or return incorrect formulas - an unacceptable risk in engineering, where precision matters. This is where Instant Equation comes in - it enables engineers to retrieve equations on demand.
Problem
Users (engineers) rely on inconsistent online sources and LLMs for equations, but face incorrect formulas due to AI hallucination, risking precision in engineering workflows.
Solution
Web-based equation search and retrieval tool with validated engineering equations. Users input keywords (e.g., "Reynolds number") to instantly access accurate formulas, bypassing unreliable sources.
Customers
Mechanical engineers, civil engineers, students, and professionals in design, R&D, or troubleshooting roles needing verified equations.
Unique Features
Curated database of engineering equations prioritizing precision over generative AI, reducing error risks.
User Comments
