Divergent

Divergent Technologies, founded in 2014 by Kevin Czinger and headquartered in Torrance, California, is the creator of the Divergent Adaptive Production System (DAPS) — the world's first end-to-end software-hardware production system for industrial digital manufacturing. DAPS uses AI-enabled engineering software to optimize structures for performance and manufacturing constraints, then additively manufactures individual Nodes using application-specific alloys, and assembles them via fully software-defined universal robotics — eliminating the need for design-specific tooling. Divergent operates three business lines: Tier 1 automotive supplier, aerospace prime supplier, and Czinger Vehicles (maker of the 21C hypercar). The company has filed 700+ patents and serves customers in automotive, aerospace, and defense sectors. In 2025, Divergent secured a $2.3 billion valuation in a Series E funding round.
