Artificial intelligence applied to industry

Anticipate failures.
Decide intelligently.

Akatá develops intelligent decision-support and predictive maintenance systems that turn your equipment data into early, explainable alerts.

Portfolio

Solutions

Artificial intelligence built on real operational data, so teams can act before problems happen.

Predictive maintenance

Models that learn the normal behavior of each asset and identify deviations that precede failures, so interventions can be planned at the right time.

Decision support

Intelligent systems that organize signals, context and explanations so managers and operators can decide more safely and quickly.

Intelligent equipment monitoring

Our main product: Akatá Marandu monitors sensors in real time and issues early anomaly alerts, each one with its explanation.

Product

Akatá Marandu

An equipment monitoring platform that combines sensor data and machine learning models to detect anomalies and warn operations in advance.

In Old Tupi, Marandu means news, notice: information that arrives before the event.

Equipment A Warning

Top contributions to the alert

  • Lube oil temperature
  • Winding temperature
  • Jacket temperature
Conceptual illustration of the interface. It does not show real data.
  • Continuous monitoring

    Tracks dozens of sensors per piece of equipment, such as temperatures, pressures, electrical quantities and vibration, even when they arrive at different sampling rates.

  • One model per asset

    Each piece of equipment has its own data processing, feature engineering and a model trained on its real operating history.

  • Reliable alerts

    Score smoothing, a dynamic threshold, a persistence requirement and a re-arm period prevent alarms triggered by isolated spikes.

  • Explainable alerts

    Every alert shows the variables that contributed most to it, with the observed value and the weight of each one, to guide inspection.

  • Operations dashboard

    Equipment status, sensor history, anomalies by period, event reports, notifications and history export.

  • Extensible, secure architecture

    New equipment is added as independent modules. Models are delivered compiled, and access is protected by signed-token authentication.

How it works

  1. Signal integration

    Sensors with different sampling rates are unified on a common time base, preserving the information from each source.

  2. Processing and features

    Operating-regime filtering, data cleaning and consistency checks, and statistical features over rolling windows.

  3. Modeling and validation

    Training on the equipment's history and rigorous time-based validation that never mixes past and future.

  4. Operational decision

    An alert is issued only when the risk pattern persists, and it reaches the team together with its explanation.

About

The fire of the mind

Akatá is a name built from Brazilian Indigenous roots of the Tupi-Guarani family.

Akã
mind, head, intelligence
Tatá
fire, flame, energy

Together, they evoke a brilliant mind: an active intelligence, driven by the warmth of creativity and a passion for knowledge. That is what we seek in every project, combining ancestral wisdom, innovation and the energy to get things done. Hence our motto: energized intelligence.

Origin

Born from applied research

Akatá is a spin-off of a partnership between science and technology institutions and CENPES, Petrobras' research center. The research that gave rise to the company was developed and validated in real industrial operations.
