ProcessMiner Raises Seed Funding to Scale AI-Powered Optimization Platform for Manufacturing
ProcessMiner, an Atlanta-based artificial intelligence company focused on industrial process optimization, has secured seed funding to expand its AI-powered platform for manufacturers and critical infrastructure industries. The investment marks the company’s first external funding round and will support product expansion, hiring, and efforts to bring autonomous process optimization technology to a broader range of industrial customers.
The seed round was led by Titanium Innovation Investments, an early-stage venture capital firm focused on digitally driven industrial and energy technology companies. The financing will help ProcessMiner accelerate adoption of its platform across manufacturing sectors while expanding into additional industries that rely on complex production processes.
Founded to help manufacturers improve productivity, sustainability, and operational efficiency, ProcessMiner develops AI-based solutions that transform real-time industrial data into actionable insights and automated process improvements. The company’s technology combines machine learning, advanced analytics, and industry expertise to help operators optimize production processes and make faster decisions.
ProcessMiner’s platform is designed for continuous manufacturing environments where small improvements in production efficiency can have significant financial and environmental impacts. The company provides AI-driven optimization tools that analyze operational data, identify opportunities for improvement, and enable predictive and autonomous adjustments to manufacturing processes.
The newly raised capital will allow ProcessMiner to deepen investment in its technology platform, accelerate hiring, and expand its reach among manufacturers seeking AI-powered solutions. The company plans to further develop applications for industries including pulp and paper, food and beverage, nonwoven materials, chemicals, and wastewater treatment.
ProcessMiner’s approach addresses growing demand for artificial intelligence applications in industrial environments. Manufacturers are increasingly looking for ways to improve operational efficiency, reduce waste, lower energy consumption, and maintain consistent product quality. Traditional manufacturing systems often generate large volumes of data that can be difficult to analyze in real time, creating opportunities for AI platforms that can identify patterns and recommend improvements.
The company’s technology focuses on moving industrial operations from reactive decision-making toward predictive and autonomous optimization. By using AI models to analyze production conditions and recommend or implement adjustments, ProcessMiner aims to help manufacturers achieve greater control over complex processes.
ProcessMiner has previously demonstrated its technology across several industrial sectors, including plastics, pulp and paper, and water treatment. The company has highlighted results from customer deployments, including improvements in quality consistency, reductions in material usage, and lower operational costs.
The investment from Titanium Innovation Investments reflects increasing investor interest in industrial artificial intelligence companies that combine software innovation with measurable operational outcomes. Titanium Innovation Investments focuses on companies applying software, machine learning, and automation technologies to challenges in industrial and energy markets.
ProcessMiner was founded by a team with expertise in manufacturing, data science, and industrial engineering. Chief Executive Officer Karim Pourak has emphasized the company’s goal of helping manufacturers use real-time data and AI technology to improve efficiency and sustainability. The company’s founders include Kamran Paynabar and Markku Mustonen, who have worked to develop solutions that bridge industrial operations and advanced analytics.
The company has also participated in technology and entrepreneurship programs to support its growth. ProcessMiner was previously accepted into the Georgia Tech Advanced Technology Development Center accelerator program, which supports technology startups and entrepreneurs developing scalable businesses.
The manufacturing sector has experienced growing pressure to modernize operations as companies face rising costs, supply chain challenges, and increased expectations around sustainability. Artificial intelligence is becoming an important tool for industrial companies seeking to improve decision-making and automate complex processes. ProcessMiner’s platform is positioned within this broader shift toward smart manufacturing and Industry 4.0 technologies.
With funding from Titanium Innovation Investments, ProcessMiner plans to expand its AI-powered optimization solutions and support more manufacturers in improving performance through automation and data-driven decision-making. The company aims to continue developing technology that helps industrial organizations increase efficiency, reduce waste, and create more sustainable production systems.
