Acerta turns complex manufacturing data into actionable insights
Acerta helps manufacturers optimize production, improve quality, and make the right decisions fast using their manufacturing data and our machine learning expertise.
We build our flagship product, LinePulse, to operationalize machine learning on the shop floor.
Our long-term vision is to connect the threads of data from the shop floor all the way to the field, so that manufacturers can make even more robust data-based decisions that ensure product quality and customer satisfaction.
The origins of Acerta Analytics
It all began with machine learning algorithms developed by our co-founders – Greta Cutulenco, Sebastian Fischmeister, and Jean-Christophe Petkovich – in the world-renowned engineering laboratories at the University of Waterloo. Their collaboration resulted in Acerta LinePulse, a suite of SaaS solutions for precision manufacturing to enhance in-process and end-of-line testing, accelerate root cause analysis, and improve first-time through yield.
