Plato Systems is on a mission to supercharge manufacturing operations by using spatial activity data and AI to improve capacity, productivity, and safety. Spun out of Stanford in 2019, we have built an intelligent analytics platform fueled by our revolutionary device which uses machine perception and sensor fusion to provide an operations digital twin that combines factory operator activity with machine data for the first time. We’re funded by NEA, and have a strong team from industry (Uber, Apple, Amazon, Google) and academia (Stanford). You can find out more about us by
