Manufacturing makes up half of the world's GDP. 20% of every dollar spent is wasted on things like scrap, rework, product returns, mistakes, experiments, and underutilized human resources – because simply: it's too hard to solve problems in manufacturing.

Our technology digitizes and aggregates product data, processing it with smart algorithms.
