MathWorks deployed Polyspace Copilot, a generative AI assistant for the Polyspace embedded code analysis product, as part of Release 2026a in April 2026. It helps software engineers understand and fix coding defects and standards violations detected in C and C++ code.
Details
Polyspace Copilot operates as a plugin within the Visual Studio Code IDE via the Polyspace as You Code extension. It provides tailored explanations of detected coding issues — including violations of MISRA C:2023, MISRA C++:2023, and CERT C/C++ standards — and suggests code fixes in natural language. Users can also ask questions about Polyspace capabilities and receive documentation-grounded answers. The tool supports multilingual interaction.

Data AnalysisMathWorks offers AI-assisted image and video labeling tools in its Computer Vision Toolbox, using the Segment Anything Model (SAM 2) and Grounding DINO to automatically generate pixel-level labels for training deep learning models. These tools are available to licensed users of the toolbox.Data AnalysisMathWorks offers the Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox, a product that allows users to build, train, and deploy predictive machine learning models using interactive apps and programmatic tools directly in MATLAB. It has been available for many years and is continuously updated.ProductivityMathWorks offers the MATLAB Agentic Toolkit and Simulink Agentic Toolkit, free open-source tools that connect third-party AI coding agents to a live MATLAB or Simulink session so agents can autonomously write, run, test, and debug code without manual copy-pasting. These were released in April 2026.
