What if AI could slash compliance risks, cut operational downtime by 20%, and accelerate innovation in one of the world’s most regulated industries?
In 2025, nuclear operators face exploding demand—from powering AI data centers to deploying small modular reactors (SMRs)—yet struggle with fragmented processes, outdated IT, and manual workflows that drive up costs and delays. Strict NRC and IAEA regulations add layers of complexity, making innovation feel risky and slow.
We seized this moment to create NucleusForge: an AI-powered fleet management toolkit that integrates seamlessly with existing systems, automates compliance, and unlocks efficiency without compromising safety.
The Mission
Modernize nuclear IT starting with the screening module. Deliver an MVP that uses AI to:
- Support emerging trends like AI-accelerated licensing and SMR integration
- Automate regulatory checks and form generation
- Orchestrate workflows with natural language interfaces
- Enable predictive maintenance and digital twin simulations
Core Team:
- Dane Wesolko – Lead Product Designer
- Regulatory Compliance Specialists
- Subject Matter Experts – Nuclear Screeners
The Journey: Fast, Compliant, User-Centered
We moved quickly but responsibly:
- Deep regulatory gap analysis against 2025 NRC AI frameworks and IAEA guidelines
- Competitive research revealing gaps in automation for licensing and compliance
- Rapid iteration: low-fi wireframes → user flow diagrams → high-fidelity Figma prototypes
Breakthrough insight: Generative AI could parse complex regulatory prompts and auto-generate compliant documents—slashing manual errors by up to 30%.
We built intuitive AI Toolkits for customizable, reproducible outputs (e.g., SOW requests), agentic workflows, and blockchain-backed audit trails. Everything designed minimalist, AA-compliant, and ready to integrate with legacy systems.
Key deliverables:
- High-fidelity compositions
- Fully interactive Figma prototype simulating real AI-driven efficiencies
A phased rollout plan ensured regulatory alignment from day one, minimizing risk while maximizing speed.
The Impact
NucleusForge MVP transforms fragmented operations into an orchestrated, AI-enhanced platform that:
- Reduces downtime and overhead through automation
- Speeds innovation for SMRs and AI-energy synergies
- Delivers consistent, compliant outputs via natural language interfaces
- Positions operators as leaders in 2025’s high-demand nuclear renaissance
Decision-makers gain relief from regulatory complexity, confidence in secure innovation, and pride in adopting a forward-thinking solution that enhances safety, efficiency, and competitive edge.
