MathWorks announced the launch of MATLAB Copilot, a generative AI assistant that enhances productivity and accelerates development for engineers, scientists, and researchers. Released in MATLAB and Simulink 2025b (R2025b), the tool streamlines coding, debugging, and learning within the MATLAB environment.
“MATLAB Copilot lets users focus on engineering and science rather than programming,” said Roy Lurie, VP of Engineering at MathWorks. “By integrating generative AI into MATLAB workflows, it strengthens MATLAB and Simulink as platforms for engineering innovation.”
Key Features of MATLAB Copilot
- Chat and Learn: Users ask questions in Copilot Chat and receive answers from MathWorks documentation and real-world code examples. This provides context-aware guidance without leaving MATLAB.
- Code Smarter: Copilot offers autocompletions, code predictions, and can generate code from natural language descriptions. It enables faster development and efficient prototyping.
- Understand and Improve: The assistant explains unfamiliar code, adds comments, clarifies errors, and generates tests with MATLAB Test. These capabilities reduce debugging time, improve code quality, and support collaboration across teams.
“MATLAB Copilot meets engineers, scientists, and researchers where they already work inside the trusted MATLAB environment,” said Seth DeLand, Principal Product Marketing Manager for Gener ative AI at MathWorks. “ It’s not only about writing code faster, but making development more intuitive, collaborative, and empowering. We look forward to seeing users maximize MATLAB Copilot in th eir workflows.”
