According to McKinsey, poor data quality is a consistent roadblock for the highest-value AI (Artificial Intelligence) use cases in industrial customers with asset-intensive operations. Legacy system architecture and weak data governance also contribute to data quality challenges.
APERIO offers an AI-driven SaaS platform called APERIO DataWise that automates the validation of real-time operational data in industrial organizations. It addresses data completeness, content, and metadata context, using AI and machine learning (ML) to scale, prioritize, and remediate data quality issues. The platform enables monitoring and validating millions of tags with actionable insights for data quality improvement. Their solution fills a gap that non-scalable in-house solutions cannot address and provides clear category leadership. It helps industrial companies make smarter data-driven decisions, improve profitability and sustainability, and mitigate risks associated with poor data quality.
“APERIO offers us a strategic opportunity to capitalize on an inflection point in the current market landscape. With their leading Data Quality platform, they provide an essential solution for top-tier industrial players facing significant data challenges.” Michael Dolbec, Momenta’s Managing Partner, expresses his excitement for APERIO’s future as they fulfill a universal need within asset-intensive industrial businesses.
“We are strategically allocating the raised funds to fuel the expansion of our software solution and bolster our global sales network,” explained Jonas Hellgren, CEO of APERIO, adding, “We are thrilled to have Momenta at the helm of this investment series, given their well-established reputation and extensive connections within the industrial sector.”
Jerry O’Gorman, VP at Advantech IIOT division, stated, “We are pleased to support this investment in APERIO. Our leading role in edge computing gives us a deep appreciation for the value of data integrity and, thus, the need for sound industrial data operations. We look forward to collaborating with APERIO, co-creating to help them scale in this critical space.”
