# Atomizer-Field Integration Plan

## Executive Summary

This plan outlines the integration of Atomizer-Field (neural network surrogate) with Atomizer (FEA optimization framework) to achieve 600x speedup in optimization workflows by replacing expensive FEA evaluations (30 min) with fast neural network predictions (50 ms).
