Product Overview
Overview
Flutura, an Industrial AI company tuned for IIoT focuses on core business objectives of "Asset Uptime" and "Operational Efficiency" with Cerebra.
Flutura provides suite of product technologies for Oil & Gas, Process Manufacturing, and Heavy Machinery industries.
- Cerebra Digital Assistants has diagnostics & prognostics modules for processes & assets for drilling & completion, production, gathering system, transmission, storage, and processing.
- Cerebra Vision Intelligence, based on video analytics, has modules for quality inspection, safety violations, and other event detections.
- Engineer’s WorkBench equips industrial engineers with Operational and Engineering insights using data science without having to code. Cerebra is ranked #1 in Gartner Peer Insights Voice of Customer (4.8/5)
Business Model
Flutura works with their customer on the Subscription based pricing model for their deployments. Subscription is either based on per asset model or per manufacturing line based on the type of operations of the customer.
Along with subscription revenue for our product, we also charge for product implementation services for our product.
We follow a unique Scale-as-you-Go pricing model to help the customer start small with valuable pilots and rapidly scale for enterprise wide impact.

Applications
To address the massive inefficiencies in the industry, Cerebra focuses on improving the core - "Asset Uptime Reliability" and " Operational Excellence" with AI and ML.
Cerebra drives actions on the field through use case specific “Digital Assistant” which combines Sensor Intelligence, Video intelligence and Edge Intelligence.
Cerebra integrates physics, heuristics, and machine learning to drive business outcomes such as Reduced Production Deferment, #field visits, Maintenance Costs, time for RCA, #Safety incidents and Enhanced Uptime.
Cerebra solves the inefficiencies present at 3 levels, namely:
Equipment Level: Equipment Health, Equipment Failure Prediction, Well Surveillance, PPE Non-compliance, etc
Process unit Level: Set-point Recommendation, RVP Prediction, Automated Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Production Assurance, etc
System Level: Gathering system optimization, Manufacturing Quality optimization, etc
Functional core of the software is focused on condition based monitoring for failure prediction and prognosis applies to a number of connected assets: sensors, pumps, valves, meters, engines, top drives, chillers, boilers, transformers, circuit breakers, batteries, etc.
