Optimization Infrastructure to Transform Your Business
About us
AMPL: Optimization Infrastructure to Transform Your Business AMPL is more than a modeling language — it’s an optimization platform purpose-built to power large-scale, business-critical applications in some of the world’s most complex industries. We provide the infrastructure to seamlessly integrate optimization into your existing workflows — enabling organizations to move from prototype to production with ease, speed, and scalability. Whether you're solving problems in energy, finance, supply chain, transportation, or tech, AMPL offers the modeling power, solver flexibility, and deployment tools you need to deliver real-world results. Originally developed at Bell Labs, AMPL remains the gold standard in algebraic modeling languages for optimization. It enables you to describe models in natural, readable notation while maintaining full control over data, solvers, and performance. AMPL’s intuitive syntax supports both linear and nonlinear optimization, in discrete or continuous variables. Used by industry leaders, researchers, and government agencies worldwide, AMPL is trusted for: - Fast and flexible model development - Solver-agnostic integration with dozens of commercial and open-source solvers - APIs for Python, MATLAB, R, C++, and other languages - Cloud and on-prem deployment - A stable foundation for long-term optimization infrastructure We also proudly support the academic and open-source optimization communities. AMPL offers free licenses for students and discounted licenses for researchers, as well as extensive documentation, examples, and teaching resources.

Just wrapped up a great few days at EURO 2025 in Leeds! It’s always energizing to connect with the operations research community, share what we’re building at AMPL, and see the breadth of applications emerging across academia and industry. Next stop: Edinburgh for the HiGHS Workshop. Looking forward to diving deeper into solver development and performance with the HiGHS team and broader community. If you're attending, let’s connect! #EURO2025 #AMPL #HiGHS #Optimization #OperationsResearch #orms

Thank you INFORMS for hosting such an insightful webinar. I learned about effective prompting, model deployment, and most importantly, cost savings. It was a great reminder of how these skills can drive massive impact, helping businesses save not just millions, but potentially billions. Excited to finally apply some of those insights to a new optimization project I’m working on using AMPL Optimization Inc. Curious to hear from others: what tools or approaches are you using at your business to optimize performance or processes? #optimization #analytics
