# Plataine

> Plataine sells cloud software that turns live factory data into production decisions for complex manufacturers. Its Total Production Optimization platform coordinates schedules, tools, machines and time-sensitive materials, with particular depth in aerospace composites, and now packages that expertise as conversational AI agents. The pitch is practical: work alongside ERP, MES and shop-floor systems, then decide what should run, where, when and with which material.
