01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
Flutura Decision Sciences and Analytics, founded in 2012 in Bangalore, India, built industrial AI software for manufacturers and asset-intensive companies. Its flagship Cerebra platform used machine learning on sensor and plant data to predict equipment failures, improve asset uptime and cut energy use across energy, chemicals, metals, mining and pharmaceutical plants. The company raised about $8.5 million and employed roughly 110 data-science specialists before Accenture acquired it in 2023.
