Ekahau AI Pro (Perpetual License for Windows & macOS)
The industry-standard, desktop predictive 3D Wi-Fi design and capacity planning software for enterprise networks. Procured as a permanent capital expenditure (CapEx) software asset with offline workstation execution and full local data autonomy.
The Benchmark Desktop 3D Wireless Design Software on a Permanent License Model
Ekahau AI Pro is the flagship on-premise simulation and network planning engine trusted by enterprise network engineers, architects, and systems integrators worldwide. Built to run natively on high-performance Windows workstations (as well as macOS), AI Pro delivers unmatched calculation speed for complex multi-floor facilities, high-density venues, and industrial campuses.
Designed for organizations that prefer traditional perpetual software ownership over recurring operational software leases, it provides total control over your design files, security posture, and offline workflows.
- Native Desktop Performance: Engineered to leverage local workstation multi-core CPU/GPU hardware for ultra-fast calculation rendering.
- Predictive 3D Simulation: Model complex architectural structures, wall attenuation, floor height variations, and multi-floor signal bleed.
- 6 GHz and Wi-Fi 7 Ready: Complete simulation toolset for modern 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz enterprise standards including 320 MHz wide channels.
- Full Data Privacy & Air-Gap Ready: Work entirely offline on secure client projects without mandatory cloud uploads or continuous internet check-ins.
- AI Auto-Placement & Optimization: Let machine learning algorithms calculate optimal AP locations, channel allocations, and transmit power configurations.
- Seamless Connect Pairing: Easily pair with an annual Ekahau Connect Subscription whenever mobile surveys, Sidekick spectrum analysis, or cloud sync are required.
Advanced 3D RF Simulation Across 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz
Design enterprise-grade wireless environments before pulling a single cable. Ekahau AI Pro models complex structural realities—including drywall, concrete pillars, metal racks, and cubicle attenuation.
Simulate multi-floor signal propagation and directional down-tilts to prevent co-channel interference and ensure strict compliance with primary and secondary signal strength requirements across modern 6 GHz and Wi-Fi 7 channels.
Rapid CAD Conversion & Automated Wall Placement
Eliminate hours of tedious blueprint tracing. Ekahau AI Pro features intelligent CAD and vector PDF import engines that automatically detect architectural wall structures and assign calibrated material attenuation values.
Align multi-level building floor plans effortlessly, establish accurate drawing scales, and transform raw architectural blueprints into ready-to-simulate RF models in minutes.
Over 5,000 Manufacturer-Calibrated Antennas
Design with absolute vendor confidence.
AI Pro includes an industry-benchmark database of over 5,000 commercial enterprise access points and specialized external antennas from manufacturers including LANCOM Systems, Cisco, Aruba, Ruckus, and Extreme.
Model exact 3D radiation envelopes, simulate dual-5 GHz or tri-radio operation, and fine-tune directional external antennas with accurate azimuth and elevation angles.
High-Density Capacity Calculations & Airtime Modeling
Ensure your network design meets demanding real-world throughput SLAs.
AI Pro calculates airtime consumption and client capacity by factoring in expected device counts, client capabilities (such as 1×1 smartphones vs. 2×2 laptops), minimum basic data rates, and high-bandwidth application traffic (such as 4K video, VoIP, and mission-critical SaaS platforms).
On-Premise Execution & Strict Data Sovereignty
For defense, financial, healthcare, and high-security enterprise environments, Ekahau AI Pro offers full desktop independence.
All project calculations, architectural blueprints, and proprietary network topologies are processed locally on your Windows PC without requiring cloud synchronization or persistent internet connectivity, ensuring compliance with strict data governance mandates.
Professional Reporting & Procurement Schedules
Turn complex RF simulations into polished commercial deliverables with one click. AI Pro generates comprehensive, customized Microsoft Word and PDF reports illustrating predictive heatmaps, SNR criteria, and channel allocations.
Automatically generate complete Bills of Materials (BoMs) listing exact AP part numbers, external antenna models, and mounting accessories for seamless tendering and installer handover.
Extend Capabilities with Ekahau Connect & Sidekick 2
While the perpetual AI Pro license handles standalone desktop planning, it natively integrates with the broader Ekahau hardware ecosystem.
Adding an annual Ekahau Connect Subscription unlocks mobile walk-surveying on iOS/Android, real-time RF spectrum analysis with the Sidekick 2, automated Optimizer health plans, and continuous version assurance.
