Advanced manufacturing processes are challenging to use, with enterprises suffering from high scrap rates, excessive downtime, and unrealised opportunities. Matta creates AI copilots that mirror and even surpass the best human operators at scale. These copilots understand how parts are made, automate machines, and communicate across the factory. The outcome: improved part quality, heightened yield, and new design and manufacturing possibilities.

Team: Matta is the result of years of AI & manufacturing research at the University of Cambridge. Its founding team has experience from institutions like Cambridge, MIT, Imperial, Google X, Microsoft and includes the PhD and Professor inventors.

Market: Advanced manufacturing is a $280B industry with a huge problem: more than 20% of every dollar spent is wasted on inefficiencies like scrap and downtime. Manufacturing AI adoption is solving this with >50% CAGR.

Traction: Built and deployed AI MVP, secured initial pilots with large enterprises in negotiations, raised £2M in VC and grant funding. Viral AI demo with over 2M views, 300+ waitlist signups, filed patent, peer-reviewed papers in top journals.
