So Much To License,
So Little Time
You need to plan your licensing roadmap and submit gobs of licensing products
But you have a small team and an aggressive timeline
Gen IV reactors and fuel have fantastic innovations.
But 99% of NRC regulations cover light water reactors.
It’s going to take some serious planning to tie the NRC’s intent for the safety of light water reactors to your non-LWR design.
Also, Part 53 is taking shape and you’ll need to comply with it even as it evolves.
Then, thousands of pages of consistent technical writing to demonstrate the safety of your novel designs.
Sounds like a job for AI!
Gridway AI multiplies your licensing team.
Research
Lightning-fast and AI-driven research of all key NRC, EPRI, NEI, and other industry documents.
Whether you’re just trying to look up a reference, or asking a broader question like “fast track strategies”, you’ll never touch Google or the ADAMS web interface again.
Roadmap
Our multi-step AI agent takes your design (even if it’s not complete!) and discerns the regulator’s intent, giving you a roadmap of products and sections to cover, so that you can successfully anticipate and handle challenges at a fraction of the cost and time.
Writing
Topical reports, whitepapers, Safety Analysis Reports, Environmental Reports, and others have something in common: lots of technical writing that must be consistent. Our state of the art, secure fine-tuned large language model, fed with your internal supporting data, gets you 75% of the way there before you ever engage a technical writing team.
Focused on your needs
Licensing Managers
Structure your pre-submittal engagement plan. Find out what questions you even should be asking, since your company’s technology has very little formal regulation covering it.
Licensing Engineers
Research and get recommended language for safety, quality assurance, and testing for materials.
Legal Teams
Tease out regulator’s intent for edge cases that you’ll need to address - make a sound argument for the safety of your fissile material even if it’s not covered by formal regulations yet.
Why use Gridway AI for nuclear licensing?
Maintain style & consistency
The NRC has an approved styleguide, covering tone, formatting, and references. Without AI, you are paying technical writers, then spending significant time checking and tweaking. Our model is trained on hundreds of NRC submissions, and our AI agent checks the results against the styleguide. Much easier and more accurate!
Speed-run complex research
Systematically combing through regulations takes time and money. Reasoning with AI collapses that timeline and cost so you just check the analysis and start implementing much earlier.
Cheaper to pivot
Don’t wait until design is 100% complete before writing. AI makes the cost of iteration vastly lower for licensing teams, because you can just re-generate a section if your design changes.
The Gridway AI founding team has a uniquely powerful background, with veterans of the United States Navy’s nuclear submarine force, General Electric’s commercial nuclear business, licensing and safety efforts in response to the Fukushima earthquake, and 10+ years in cloud software and artificial intelligence.
Available Spring 2025
Get on the waitlist now and we’ll keep you in touch with product releases, pricing, and more.
It’s the age of AI. If you rely on a fully manual licensing process, you’ll spend more money and time than you need. Plus, you put your company at the end of the NRC queue.
What it will look like to succeed:
Aggressively tackle your licensing roadmap
Licensing costs will be <2% of total capital outlays (down from 3-5%)
Vastly less cognitive load from reviewing style, tone, references, and consistency
Your engineering & design teams will spend more time building and less time answering licensing questions
Much less licensing risk
Do vastly more with a smaller, more nimble licensing team
