It used to simply be called artificial insemination. In cows, the vet gets the precious flown in frozen premium semen and hand injects it in the cow’s vagina and straight into her uterus.
With people, you will need more equipment as hands and arms won’t fit into the vagina to do the same thing a cow vet does.
There’s injecting into the vagina, there’s injecting into the uterus past the cervix, there’s injecting into the fallopian tubes. All in very technical sounding names.

Why would you want to do this?
It is possible that some people have incompetent or damaged reproductive organs that may be preventing them from conceiving. This bypasses the usually efficient biological procedure of the cervix picking up semen in the vaginal canal, cleaning the sperm and filtering / allowing only the competent sperm inside up to the fallopian tubes for possible conception.
Note that have sperm and egg meet does not necessarily guarantee conception. There may not be enough sperm. Or the quality of the sperms’ head chemicals are inadequate to penetrate the egg.
Note that conception is one part of the process. The other part is implantation.
This is where the health of our woman is important. As an unhealthy uterus or woman as a whole will reject a pregnancy her body is not capable of bringing to term.
Making babies is more than just having egg and sperm meet.
