Your Partner for Artificial Intelligence in Automotive Development
Artificial Intelligence as a Standard in Vehicle and Software Development
The complexity of today’s automotive landscape demands new approaches: vehicles must seamlessly connect with surrounding infrastructure, remain continuously updateable, and process massive amounts of data in real time.
That’s exactly where we come in. As a technology partner with deep automotive expertise, AI is second nature to us. We use artificial intelligence in every project where it creates real value, from the first idea to the final implementation.
Effective AI Solutions Driven by Deep Automotive Expertise
We speak your language: decades of experience with automotive processes and comprehensive system understanding.
Only those who truly understand a vehicle down to the last detail know how AI can generate real value.
Fast Project Success Through Interdisciplinary Teams
With more than 200 software engineers and cutting‑edge AI technology, we shorten your time-to-market.
Benefit from rapid project success, flexible project management, and Cognizant's global network.
Deep Integration Through Partnerships with Leading Hyperscalers
Our close collaboration with major AI platforms enables scalable, future-proof solutions—tailored to your requirements and ready for global deployment.
AI Support in Every Project Phase – from Strategy to Execution
We guide you through every step: from initial ideation to pilot projects and full-scale implementation.
This is how AI becomes a natural part of your processes.
AI as a Game Changer in the Automotive Industry
Put your data in the fast lane.
AI Use Cases in the Automotive Sector: Innovation at Every Stage
AI in Automotive Testing
Automation for Maximum Efficiency
Our AI solutions are the key to intelligent test automation:
They identify and generate test cases, execute tests, and evaluate results—fast, accurate, and highly scalable.
The impact: shorter development cycles and improved overall quality.
Data Loggers in Vehicle Diagnostics
Detect Patterns, Resolve Issues Faster
Vehicles generate millions of data points. We use AI to detect patterns within the system data captured by data loggers.
The result:
error resolution up to 70% faster.
AI in Automotive Training
Accelerating Knowledge Transfer
AI is transforming qualification processes: It speeds up training during vehicle launches, supports workshop staff in daily operations, and strengthens the after-sales experience.
The benefits: faster learning, higher service quality, and improved customer loyalty.
Artificial Intelligence in Automotive: Time for Results, Not Just Concepts
A clear data and AI strategy is essential for staying competitive in the automotive sector. We help you bring data, processes and people together in a meaningful way, creating real value with solutions such as Agentic AI.
With our AI Strategy Practice, you achieve measurable results quickly. We support you not only on the technical side, but also in strategic and organizational topics, acting as a partner who understands your industry and your challenges.
Our Milestones in Automotive AI – Driving the Future Forward

The First AI Voice Assistant in Automotive, Presented at IAA 2022
In 2022 we demonstrated how generative AI and deep learning can transform the driving experience with the Very Enhanced Road Assistant (VERA). As the first AI voice assistant in the automotive sector and presented at the IAA, VERA set new standards that are now widely adopted across the industry.
VERA communicates naturally with passengers, provides driving information, and detects emergency situations.
Cogi: Our Smart AI Chatbot for Internal Knowledge
With Cogi we make internal knowledge easy to access. The AI chatbot is available to all employees through Microsoft Teams and answers questions about processes, company news, FAQs, and much more. It is powered by around 5,000 internal Confluence documents.
Cogi understands our organizational context, respects roles and permissions, and communicates in several languages. This makes it especially useful for our international teams.
Top-3 Rankings at International AI Hackathons
For five years in a row our teams have ranked among the top three in well-known competitions such as the AWS AI Hackathon 2024, the SORDI.ai Hackathon 2022, which is the largest industrial AI challenge worldwide hosted by BMW Group, Microsoft and NVIDIA – and the Machine Learning Hackathon 2021.
In these events we develop complex AI use cases and solutions for the automotive and manufacturing industries within very short time frames, from the first idea to the final presentation on the same day.
Project Reference
Case Study: AI Outlier Detection for 48V Battery Systems
Challenge
Unclear anomalies in 48V battery behavior and large volumes of telemetry data made analysis slow and resource intensive for the OEM.
Our Approach
An AI model automatically identifies unusual data patterns and presents them in an easy-to-understand format. Development teams can spot anomalies immediately and follow up with focused investigation.
Result and Value for the OEM
Faster diagnostics, less manual data handling, and higher system quality during testing.
