Samp (software company)

Samp is a European software company founded in 2020 in Paris.., France, that provides a SaaS product for the automatic generation, sharing and update of 3D digital twins of existing industrial sites.

History

The co-founders Laurent Bourgouin and Shivani Shah, met during an Entrepreneur First program cohort in Paris in 2019.

Both PhD discussed their respective experiences, with Laurent highlighting the challenges encountered by operators of aging industrial facilities in managing technical information, and Shivani addressing the development potential of the latest research in artificial intelligence and its possible application to this challenge.

In 2020, they co-founded Samp, from the Gujarati word સંપ meaning “unity”, with the aim of reconnecting technical information with the reality of the field.

Product

Shared Reality is an online workspace for automatically generating 3D reality models of industrial sites, streaming them to authorized users, and updating them as changes are made.

3D reality models are interactive 3D representations of a physical facility based on 3D scanning (via photogrammetry or lidar), where each 3D asset is independent from the others

A 3D reality model is not created by using CAD software, but by segmenting a raw 3D scan. In the case of Shared Reality, this segmentation is performed by AI.

Clients

The company primarily serves the utility, energy and heavy industry sectors. Among known clients of the solution are companies such as Engie, Veolia, Suez or Teréga

Shared Reality (software)

Shared Reality is a 3D digital twin generation software developed by the European company Samp.

It is primarily used in the utility, energy and heavy industries, to remodel existing industrial facilities.

As of 2025 the SaaS product was deployed over several hundreds of industrial sites.

Features

Unlike CAD software which requires human draftsmen to manually remodel existing industrial facilities from drawings or measurements, Shared Reality’s main feature is the automatic generation of interactive 3D reality models of existing sites from raw 3D scans .

Samp developed a proprietary 3D AI to automatically segment individual process equipment (such as piping, flanges, valves, pumps etc) from the source monolithic 3D scan. The result is a reality-based interactive model used by industrial operators and their supply chain.

Beyond this initial reverse-engineering capability, Shared Reality allows to rapidly update parts of the scene after local modifications have been performed. These updates can be performed by 3D surveying teams (primarily via lidar scanning) or directly by the field workers (primarily via mobile device photogrammetry).

Finally, Shared Reality offers the possibility to enrich any technical asset with data, either directly in the application (eg with a tag identifier or attributes), or by linking assets with external data, such as the one found in systems of record (ERP, EAM, CMMS, telemetry), or with functional data from flowsheets (PFD, P&ID, single line diagrams).

Users

Shared Reality is used by different teams such as QHSE, engineering, procurement, maintenance, operation, or inspection. Among public clients of the solution are companies such as Engie., Veolia, Suez or Teréga
