About Scale Prognostics
We build physics-based battery degradation prediction for engineering teams that need answers they can stake real decisions on — procurement commitments, warranty terms, fleet deployment schedules.
The Founder
Jason brings over a decade of experience working with electrical infrastructure and real-world degradation across extreme operating environments. That fieldwork built something most battery modelers never develop: an intuition for how cyclic thermal and mechanical stress compounds over years of service — and where conventional models quietly get it wrong.
The core innovation behind Scale Prognostics came from that gap. Batteries don't just degrade from charge-discharge cycling. They degrade from the temperature oscillations that cycling creates, and that mechanism is mathematically independent of the cycling itself. Jensen's inequality on the convex Arrhenius rate function guarantees that any constant-temperature model will systematically underpredict degradation. This isn't an empirical claim — it's a mathematical theorem. Scale Prognostics is the first commercial platform to correct for it computationally.
The Engine
Scale Prognostics v18.1 couples seven degradation mechanisms — SEI growth, lithium plating, particle fracture, porosity evolution, electrolyte decomposition, thermal fatigue, and contact loss — in a 22-element state vector with 35 physics-derived parameters.
Performance: 7 of 8 published datasets at grade A or better. 30ms simulation time — fast enough for real-time BMS integration and design-of-experiments sweeps. Physics-first architecture that extrapolates to conditions outside the training data because the mechanisms are real.
Our Approach
We don't compete on data volume or training set size. We compete on physics. Our model extrapolates because the mechanisms are real — they don't stop working outside the training distribution. When you change the temperature profile, the C-rate, or the silicon content, the predictions adjust because the physics adjusts.
This is the difference between a model that tells you what happened to batteries like yours and a model that tells you what will happen to yours.
AI-Augmented Development
Scale Prognostics is built with AI at every stage of the development cycle. AI-assisted derivation and symbolic verification of coupled degradation equations ensures mathematical rigor. Continuous automated cross-validation against published datasets catches regressions before they reach production.
The result: a model that improves faster than any single researcher could push it, with mathematical rigor that no pure-ML approach can match.
