A Convergence of Decades
We didn't start in a garage; we started on the blast furnace floor. Our story is written in molten metal and high-heat refractories. For over two decades, our founding team stood where the heat is most intense—navigating the volatile challenges of heavy industry.
In Refractories and Steel, 1% isn't just a number; it's a million-dollar shift in OPEX or a critical safety margin. We saw generic AI models fail because they didn't understand the chemistry of a kiln or the drift of a 50-year-old asset.
Veterans from the steel and refractories industry — bringing over 200 years of collective experience in operations, maintenance, and mission-critical systems — joined forces with experts in large-scale cloud deployments, media pipelines for advanced vision processing, and artificial intelligence. Together, we built the industry’s first ‘Mines to Metals’ predictive architecture.
