We help businesses use their data to tackle complex real-life challenges

Yves De Meersman

Manufacturing Intelligence Data Engineer, Barry Callebaut Belgium

We have been using DataStories as our main tool for in-depth data analysis within our manufacturing intelligence landscape. We are strongly impressed by its ability to translate the data science methodology to a user-friendly platform that can be used by multiple expertise levels within the organization. The platform makes use of easy-to-understand visuals to give us more insight into the data we put in. The model that results from our dataset is not treated as a black box but is made interactive and transparent with the what-if graphs. These graphs are often used as a conversation starter with the business, enabling us to directly improve our processes.

Molecular Scientist, Averis Seeds (Avebe)

The advanced machine learning algorithms of DataStories allow us to do association analysis in polyploids with a wide range of genomic input and quantitative traits. DataStories’ package automatically generates a number of useful data visualizations, such as pair-wise plots, to quickly view the relation between dosage scores of genetic markers and trait values. A truly great feature is the SDK, which allows us to loop through segments of big datasets. In-house comparisons between DataStories’ package and other association tools have clearly shown DataStories’ added value. A must-have tool for every polyploid breeding company!

Manager Engineering & Quality, BORIT

We produce bipolar plates for the emerging hydrogen economy and our customers are not only interested in obtaining the product, but also in the underlying process conditions under which these products are made. This information is crucial to include in a next design iteration, so that the future production process better matches the product, becomes easier and cheaper or less risk-sensitive.

Besides measurement results, BORIT therefore massively collects machine parameters at every production step and for every product. The mass of data generated by this must be processed as efficiently as possible, and since 2018 BORIT has been using the AI ​​big data software package from DataStories for this purpose.

With DataStories we are able to make connections between data in a matter of hours and provide an initial pareto of possible levers for improvement to our own people or to customers. Using a classic methodology, this would cost us a multitude of time and resources. Not only do we gain time, but we also build credibility.

I cannot imagine that without this tool we would get the same added value from our operational data!

Former Vice President, Head of Operational Excellence of ArcelorMittal. Current Chairman of the Board of Ondernemers voor Ondernemers.

With DataStories, evaluating your data quality & modeling are extremely fast. Unreliable data are easily detected and can be filtered out.

The DataStories prediction model allows to model a blast furnace process and to identify the main process parameters for optimizing the process, beyond merely statistical correlations. The model is very versatile, ergonomical (easy to use) and gives deep insights into the process parameter dependencies.

The results matched metallurgical balance models, literature and other Advanced Analytics models for given operating points, and easily allow simulations for different operating points without additional runs which would otherwise require time intensive calculations.

The greatest value of the model will be obtained when it is used by a blast furnace process expert.

Malte Lohan

Orgalim Director General, Europe's Technology Industries

DataStories had the experience and expertise to show us the possibilities of deploying AI in a policy context, as we experimented with generating fresh forward-looking insights, forecasts and predictive models. The aim was to explore how socio-economic indicators are related to each other and to important industrial KPIs – for example understanding the impact of R&D investments on productivity. We look forward to building on this work as we continue to champion smarter policy.

Uwe Combüchen

Director General at CEEMET - European Employer organisation of the metal, engineering and technology-based industries

DataStories has tremendously helped Ceemet, the European tech employers. DataStories comprehend this highly complex matter and have the talent to communicate AI and the potential it holds in a transparent and understandable way. More people with the skills and the attitude of the CEO Katya Vladislavleva and the team would certainly help to increase trust in AI so it can fully unleash its human centric potential in a Europe, that has chosen to underscore the ethical approach to AI, and beyond.

Prof. Dr. Manu MALBRAIN

ICU Director | Dept. of Critical Care Medicine | Brussels University Hospital (UZB)

DataStories allowed us to analyze many parameters together in hemodynamically unstable patients admitted to the intensive care unit in such a way that we receive meaningful output regarding therapeutic decisions. This can make a real change at the bedside. Not to replace the doctors but rather as a decision support system. In case of therapeutic dilemma, the advice nicely summarizes and “weighs” the different treatment options against each other like increasing or decreasing IV fluids, starting, increasing or stopping vasopressors and/or inotropes. This is exactly what happens in real life as medicine is not an exact science. The platform and interface to upload the data moreover are very user friendly.

An innovation breakthrough to deliver analytics

Sanjoy Bhose

Director Business Development at Mirus Partnership

..Completely committed to disrupting and ‘game changing’ predictive analytics. After a detailed conversation with one of their Fortune 500 customers I understand that they have genuinely delivered what all software companies truly love to claim, outstanding ROI and ‘too good to be true’ results that are revolutionising project timelines and their associated costs.

Stu Miller

Co-founder, COO/CTO SmartInsights.com

Working with Katya and the rest of the Data Stories team is a fascinating experience. We thought we had a pretty good handle on what drives our visitors to convert, but the detail provided should help us be much more focused and optimise who we nudge, and who we allow to convert naturally. A pleasure to work with, and very well recommended!

Dan Levy

Content Strategist at Unbounce.com

…DataStories team are wizards at taking large, complex data sets and turning them into actionable insights. We asked them to analyze our blog content based on both internal and external metrics and they quickly came back with data-driven recommendations that empowered our content marketing team to focus on what was working, discard what was syphoning resources without producing results, and identify key areas of opportunity. All while being a pleasure to work with!

Working with DataStories is like seeing the future. Anything you put up on the web can be tracked. You can gather thousands of data points. All that information is useless unless it TELLS you something.

This is exactly what DataStories can do.

Give the computer a bunch of data, and it will find what’s actually important.

Kouris Kalligas

CEO, Addapp Corp

I’ve had the privilege of working with Katya and her team in Addapp and we have benefited from true science combined with hands-on attitude. This combination is rare so when I think of predictive analytics I look no further

Ivan Glinkin

Operations Development Director, Sveza-Les Ltd

Besides the professional ability to solve complex problems, the company is genuinely customer oriented and ready to maximize the flexibility to accommodate our changing needs. The specifics of the problems we are solving together is such that the final decision is not always obvious. In Evolved Analytics, we have got a partner who does not only develop according to our explicit requests, but is willing to work with us to design a variety of options to help us choose the most appropriate for our business and implement it in the form of a software product in the most effective way to guarantee the optimal balance of costs and results.

Katya Zvereva

Director of Planning, Sveza-Les Ltd

I want to thank DataStories for professionalism and flexibility in solving the problem of plywood production planning optimization on one of our plants. The project turned out to be difficult, but interesting. The scheduling algorithm production had to include several objective functions to reduce production time of shipments, meet the planned volume requirements with planned profitability, and if necessary, form a balancing portfolio of orders from frequent SKUs for load balancing of production equipment. I appreciate the loyalty of the developer and orientation on results,- we had to rebuild the algorithm several times to incorporate emerging additional requirements. I wish the company success, new interesting projects, and recommend you as a solution provider for complex mathematical problems in optimization!
