What We Do
C3 AI is the leading Enterprise AI software provider for accelerating digital transformation.
Digital transformation is about leveraging big data and the internet of things to improve performance of assets and predict shortfalls before they happen — all through artificial intelligence and machine learning. Get ahead of supply chain delays before they affect your delivery deadlines. Predict maintenance needs to increase asset uptime, replacing or repairing parts before failure. Reduce energy costs and track sustainability goals in real time, improving building operations and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Connect disparate health record systems to optimize patient visits and decrease waitlist time.
At the core of all C3 AI products is a proprietary, model-driven AI architecture that dramatically enhances data science and application development. The C3 AI Platform allows customers to develop, deploy, and operate large-scale AI, predictive analytics, and IoT applications. And a broad portfolio of turnkey AI applications allows for even faster development and deployment. From reliability and readiness to supply chain optimization and energy management, C3 AI has deep industry expertise to get your enterprise started on its digital transformation.
