Production planning at the speed of your plant

Traditional planning tools can’t keep up with your plant. akeno uses real-time shop floor data to create adaptable production plans—maximizing OTIF, cutting costs, and responding to disruptions in seconds.

See How It Works

Trusted by Industry Giants, Loved by Planners

Is your planning out of sync with your factories’ reality?

Your planning tools rely on outdated information and can't adjust to the constant changes in your plant.

Your planning teams deal with disruptions and edit spreadsheets based on gut feelings, not facts.

Expensive solutions promise “optimization,” but force you into their priorities.

Then experience the akeno way

Use real-time shop floor data and automation to create production plans that reflect your plant’s reality.

Effortlessly replan entire factories and keep your team focused, thanks to AI and machine learning.

Optimize for the outcomes you want. Maximizing OTIF rates? Inventory reduction? Improving cash flow flexibility? It’s up to you.

Real-Time, Automated Production Planning

Make decisions based on what s happening now, not last week

No more waiting for production updates to see the impact of changes. PlAI automatically adjusts your production plan in under 5 seconds, reflecting live data from your shop floor. You stay agile and responsive to changing demands, production disruptions, unexpected events–always.

Multi-Objective Optimization

Decide what you want to optimize for

Prioritize for your most urgent goals–reducing inventory, increasing on-time in full delivery, maximizing asset use, you name it. akeno creates the best production plan to achieve them, plant by plant, for specific products, or at a full-site level. This way, your production plans always support your business objectives.

Exception-Based Management

Let planners do their job instead of putting out fires

akeno even handles day-to-day scheduling tasks and proactively alerts your planners to critical exceptions that need their expertise–so planners can focus on what matters most.

And that’s not all

Automated process modeling

With a live model of your factory, manual data maintenance is a thing of the past.

AI-Powered optimization

akeno learns from your data, continuously improving its planning accuracy and efficiency.

Intuitive user dashboards

Get insights into production performance and prevent potential bottlenecks with intuitive dashboards.

We’re with you until you’re 100% operational

Our team works with yours, from initial data connection to ongoing optimization.

Here’s how it works

01

Proof of Concept

See if akeno is right for you

We start with a focused, short-term project using a sample of your data to show you akeno’s core capabilities – without a full system integration.

Pilot Project

Test akeno in your real environment

After a successful PoC, we work with your team to fully integrate akeno into one of your plants, creating a scalable model for other sites. We configure the system for your planning processes and train the AI model on your historical data.

Please note

Every implementation is different. Our experts work with your team to securely and efficiently integrate with your existing systems – adapting to your specific data landscape.

BASF Coatings is excited to be working with akeno on an innovative project to enhance its production planning and scheduling. Their product promises to bring a new level of optimization and comprehensiveness to our processes.

With akeno, we were able to increase the efficiency of our production and significantly improve transparency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does akeno require years of historical data?

Not necessarily. If no historical data is available, we can handle your data as-is. In such cases, we adapt in real-time and base our activities on continuous learning.
