Briar: partners for trusted AI assistants and engineering workflows

Dynamic Devices is seeking partners to develop and evaluate Briar: our work on AI assistance and a reusable engineering harness that helps people use AI consistently while retaining control.

The harness combines AI agents, persistent project knowledge, task coordination, automated testing and human approval controls. We use these approaches in our own engineering activities and want to evaluate them with external partners against clearly defined business challenges.

Potential collaborations include helping engineering teams maintain knowledge across projects, coordinate development tasks and reduce repetitive work. The aim is to move beyond isolated AI experiments towards dependable workflows with clear boundaries and accountability.

We would like to connect with manufacturing and engineering organisations that can bring a real workflow, users and measurable success criteria. We also welcome research and technology partners with expertise in AI evaluation, security, human factors and responsible deployment.

Together, we would define a focused use case, establish a baseline and assess quality, reliability, time saved and the effort required for human oversight. We are interested in forming a BridgeAI consortium to support this partner-led validation and progression towards trusted deployment.
