C3 Platform Proven at Enterprise Scale

The C3 Platform is a cohesive development environment for enterprise-scale big data‚ predictive analytics‚ AI‚ and IoT applications. The platform enables the integration and analysis of unprecedented volumes of disparate data—including telemetry from industrial and commercial devices‚ enterprise operational systems‚ and extraprise data such as weather‚ traffic‚ and social media—into a unified cloud-based data image‚ and employs machine learning at scale‚ in near-real time‚ to deliver predictive insights that improve operational efficiencies‚ enhance customer engagement‚ and differentiate products and services.

C3.ai also provides pre-built SaaS applications‚ including predictive maintenance‚ fraud detection‚ energy management‚ and sensor network health‚ for organizations in manufacturing‚ oil and gas‚ healthcare‚ financial services‚ aerospace‚ transportation‚ telecommunications‚ and the public sector. Enterprise customers and system integrators also use the C3 Platform as a service (PaaS) to rapidly build and deploy custom applications.

With more than 20 industrial-scale deployments and 100 million sensors and devices under management‚ C3.ai provides the only development environment for next-generation enterprise AI and IoT applications that is proven at scale to deliver tangible business value.
