Theory of Inventive Problem Solving, automated

Your problems
have already
been solved.

TRIZ found the solution in 40 principles and 39 contradictions.
Inventix guides you to it — systematically, every step.

How it works

The method, not just the answer

Most AI tools skip to the answer. Inventix walks you through every step of the TRIZ methodology — so you understand why the solution works.

01

Define your problem

Describe your challenge in plain language. Inventix extracts the key parameters and identifies the technical contradictions at play.

02

Map the contradictions

The AI identifies your technical and physical contradictions and maps them against the 39-parameter contradiction matrix — the heart of TRIZ.

03

Apply the 40 Inventive Principles

Inventix surfaces the most relevant principles for your specific contradictions — drawn from analysis of 4.5 million patents. Not a brainstorm. A structured answer.

04

Arrive at the breakthrough

Guided by the methodology, you generate solutions that resolve — not compromise — the contradiction. That's the TRIZ promise. That's what Inventix delivers.

The contradiction matrix

4.5 million patents.
One systematic path to the solution.

Genrich Altshuller spent decades analyzing patents across every industry. He found that contradictions follow patterns — and that solutions follow principles. The 39×39 contradiction matrix is the most powerful tool in TRIZ. Inventix makes it accessible without a PhD.

The building blocks of every breakthrough

From segmentation to phase transition — each principle has resolved a contradiction somewhere in the world. Inventix helps you find the right one.

01
Segmentation
Divide an object into independent parts. Break a process into independent stages.
Example: The folding ladder — 24 feet of reach, folds into a closet. Segmentation made it possible.
02
Taking Out
Separate the interfering part from the object, or isolate the useful part.
03
Local Quality
Make each part of an object fulfill different functions. Vary properties across space.
13
The Other Way Round
Invert the action. Make the harmful factor useful. Flip the problem around.
17
Another Dimension
Move to a higher dimension. Use multi-layer arrangements instead of flat structures.
28
Mechanics Substitution
Replace mechanical means with sensory (optical, acoustic, taste, smell) or field-based methods.
35
Property Changes
Change the physical state, density, flexibility, or temperature of a material.
40
Composite Materials
Combine homogeneous materials with composite materials to achieve properties unavailable otherwise.

Inventix applies all 40 principles — and knows which ones have the highest success rate for your specific contradiction type.

Methodology-first

Not a chatbot that guesses. An AI consultant that enforces the TRIZ process — contradictions first, principles second, solutions third.

No expertise required

You don't need TRIZ training to use Inventix. The AI knows the methodology and guides you through it step by step.

Rigorous, not approximate

The 39-parameter matrix. The 40 principles. ARIZ when the problem is complex. Inventix uses the full toolkit, not a subset.

The next breakthrough
is a contradiction away.

Every impossible problem has a contradiction hiding inside it. Find it, resolve it, and the solution becomes obvious. That's TRIZ. That's Inventix.

Used by engineers at Samsung, Boeing, Intel, and General Electric. Now available to every problem-solver.
