Formivra for Paint

Every formula is a guess until you mix it.

Change one thing. Watch everything move.

The numbers move. The chemistry is explained.

Run the trial before you mix it.

An AI formulation chemist beside your bench. Built for paint R&D teams.

Formivra for Paint

Run the trial before you mix it.

An AI formulation chemist beside your bench. Change one ingredient, see PVC, CPVC, VOC and cost move, read why, and mix only the trials worth mixing.

The bench today

One kilo
at a time.

Paint R&D is trial and error. Make a 1 kg batch, test it, watch one property fail, start over. Weeks per property. Months per product. And the failed trials, the ones that taught you the most, end up in nobody's notebook.

Type the change. Read the chemistry.

In Formivra you write the change the way you would say it to a colleague. The tool recomputes the sheet. The AI chemist explains what moved and why, and tells you what to test before you believe it.

Change report · T2

Two points of TiO₂ came out. Hollow-sphere opaque polymer went in as a spacer. Opacity holds because the spacer keeps TiO₂ particles apart, and spacing is where hiding power comes from. Λ drops a little, so the film stays below CPVC and scrub should not suffer. Test contrast ratio at 75 µm and a 3000-cycle scrub before you trust it.

Inside Formivra for Paint

Built like a lab, not a chatbot.

01

Workbench

Branch trials, F1 to T2 to T3. Every trial keeps its recipe, its numbers and its change report. Apply any one back to the sheet or export it as a PDF.

02

Formulation sheet

PVC, CPVC, lambda, volume solids, VOC, wet density and cost per kg, computed live as you type. Supplier TDS files are read straight into the calculator.

03

Catalog

132 starting formulas across 12 categories, from economy distemper to 2K clear coat, each with spec, process and R&D notes.

QC and Batches

Targets fill from the spec. Log measured actuals, get pass or fail per test, and see every batch of a formula side by side.

AI chemist, 7 modes

Formulation, troubleshooting, raw materials, QC, cost, regulatory, compare.

Lab Notebook

Save trials with batch numbers and status from development to production.

Indian sourcing

Named suppliers, rupee costs per kg, BIS and IS methods beside ASTM and ISO.

Your data stays local

Three steps

From idea to bench in three moves.

STEP 1

Pick a paint, or describe a new one.

132 starting formulas, or the Invention Lab for something that does not exist yet.

STEP 2

Type the change, or the target.

"Cut cost 5% without losing scrub." "Make it low VOC." The sheet recomputes, the AI explains.

STEP 3

Read the report. Mix the winner.

Failure modes, trade-offs and the QC tests to run. Then one batch on the bench instead of ten.

Paint is first. Chemistry is the plan.

The same lab is being built for every formulation industry. Paint is live today.

Straight answers

The questions chemists actually ask.

Is this just a chatbot with a chemistry prompt?
No. The chat is one tab. The rest is a working lab: an editable formulation sheet with live PVC, CPVC and VOC math, a trial tree, QC batch logging, TDS reading and a 132-paint catalog. The AI writes the change report. The tool does the arithmetic.
Does our data leave the building?
Your recipes, trials, TDS values and batches are stored on your own computer, in the browser. Nothing is uploaded to us. You back up to a file you keep. Only the question you send the AI chemist goes to the model, through your licensed account.
AI is not a magic wand. Why should I trust the numbers?
You should not trust them blind, and the tool never asks you to. The metrics are plain formulation math from densities and oil absorption, taken from the built-in library, your supplier TDS, or values you type. Every change report ends with the QC tests to run before you believe it.
Does it know Indian raw materials and standards?
Yes. Indian suppliers, rupee costs per kg, BIS and IS test methods beside ASTM and ISO, and VOC and regulatory notes for India, the EU and the US.
Will it replace my formulators?
It replaces the waiting. Your chemists still decide what to test and what to ship. They just get to see twenty trials before the first one is weighed.
What does it cost?
Licensed per lab, with a live demo first. Book one below and we will walk through your own recipe.
