Insights
Emerson's Nigel AI integration adds strategic value to core test products, potentially expanding market share and driving revenue growth.
Emerson's integration of Nigel AI Advisor into its flagship test software represents a strategic technological advancement with significant market implications. The company is effectively embedding AI capabilities into its established LabVIEW and TestStand platforms, which form the backbone of their test and measurement portfolio.
This development addresses a critical pain point in the industry: the growing complexity of test and measurement processes across semiconductor, transportation, and electronics sectors. By leveraging large language models specifically trained on NI software, Emerson is creating a specialized AI solution rather than implementing generic AI technology.
The key technical value proposition is twofold: code analysis with improvement recommendations and natural language interfaces for accessing hundreds of functions. This approach enhances user productivity while maintaining engineers' control over critical testing environments—an essential balance in industrial applications where reliability is paramount.
What's particularly notable is Emerson's roadmap signaling this as just the first step in a broader AI integration strategy across their software portfolio. The company appears to be taking a measured, domain-specific approach to AI implementation rather than rushing to market with superficial AI features.
From a competitive standpoint, this positions Emerson to differentiate in the automated test equipment market by addressing the talent gap many organizations face—enabling less experienced engineers to leverage institutional knowledge embedded in AI and allowing veteran engineers to focus on higher-value tasks. The secure cloud platform implementation also indicates Emerson is addressing data security concerns that often accompany industrial AI deployments.
NI Nigel AI Advisor will transform how engineers approach test and measurement, cutting through complexity and accelerating workflows
Built on state-of-the-art large language models and taught to understand NI software, Nigel is a trusted advisor that helps engineers increase their productivity while maintaining control of their test environment. This new technology helps engineers use its flagship test software, NI LabVIEW™ and NI TestStand™, more efficiently by analyzing code and providing recommendations for improvements when developing and executing tests. Nigel enables users to ask questions via plain language prompts to get detailed suggestions for utilizing hundreds of functions, all while protecting user data through a secure cloud platform.
"The launch of Nigel AI Advisor represents another game-changing NI innovation that will redefine what is possible with test and measurement," said Ritu Favre, president of Emerson's test and measurement business. "Nigel reduces test complexity, enabling engineers to focus on their own innovation and business goals."
First introduced to attendees at this year's NI Connect conference, Nigel AI Advisor is the initial release fueled by Emerson's investment in integrating AI capabilities into its broad portfolio of NI test and measurement software. NI LabVIEW and NI TestStand are both included in Emerson's NI LabVIEW+ Suite, which also includes other purpose-built software tools that work together to help engineers automate measurements, analysis and tests.
Emerson plans to further integrate Nigel into its other test software products to help engineers save time and resources for higher-level tasks. As large language models advance and Emerson continues to refine for test and measurement specific tasks, Nigel AI Advisor will accelerate in intelligence and advance even greater possibilities within the field.
