The APEX LABS range

One suite, built around the vehicle.

Six tools that cover how a vehicle is designed: from lap time to the engine, the suspension, the battery, the wings and the wiring. APEX LAP is available today; the others are in development.

APEX LAP

Lap time simulation

The fastest lap a car or motorcycle can drive on any circuit, and exactly where time is gained or lost.

  • Race cars, Formula Student, road cars, EV, hybrid and motorcycles
  • Compare setups with live time difference, track maps and KPIs
  • Sensitivity studies that rank what is worth the most lap time

Why APEX LABS

Software you can trust with your design.

Official downloads only from this site and our GitHub release page, and engineering you can read.

Checksums for every installer

Each release lists the SHA-256 of its installer, so you can confirm your download is the file we published.

Verified updates

The apps find new versions themselves and install an update only after its size and checksum match.

Your work stays local

Projects, vehicles and results stay on your PC. No usage statistics, no tracking.

Documented engineering

Every equation is written up in a calculation handbook and checked by automated tests against reference results.

Find your lap time before you build.
