Nominal Acquires Pull Systems
Every car on the road is teaching its engineers something. The hard part is acting on it before the lesson gets expensive. Henry and Manny built Pull Systems to solve that problem for automakers, and they're joining us to bring that work into the Nominal platform.
Nominal
Where automotive field quality meets hardware intelligence
In close partnership with Porsche and other Volkswagen Group brands, Pull Systems created Workbench: a telemetry data platform that helps engineers and coding agents alike accelerate root cause analysis for new vehicle programs. Their users were the field monitoring, quality, and service teams responsible for a new electric vehicle after launch, when a validated design finally makes contact with reality.
In this context, the stakes are high. Customers want answers, dealers need fixes, and regulators are watching, so every second of an investigation counts. With Workbench, field monitoring, quality, and service teams managing hundreds of thousands of vehicles around the world could find a root cause in minutes instead of months, containing an issue before it became a fleet-wide event.
What Henry and Manny are helping build at Nominal
They've spent years on the production line, in the service bay, and in the warranty forecast, alongside the engineers solving some of the hardest problems in scaled automotive manufacturing with agentic systems. Now, Henry is focused on Nominal for Developers, which allows engineers to benefit from Nominal’s robust data model and build custom applications rapidly on the Nominal platform. Manny is helping develop Nominal’s first in-platform agent, Analyst. It helps teams ask questions about their data, build editable analyses, and turn test plans into pass/fail checks, with sources and calculations engineers can review.
With the hardware intelligence platform behind them, they'll take that work to every hardware discipline that needs it. They join a growing bench of domain experts who have lived the work in aerospace, defense, energy, and now automotive, and who shape what we build alongside our customers.
All Vehicles Nominal, from the first prototype on the dyno to the hundred-thousandth car on the road. Request a demo today.
