What ST-One does

ST-One is a Brazilian industrial data science company founded in 2020 by Guilherme Cittolin and Tiago Machado, headquartered in Curitiba. The company sells an integrated Industrial IoT and Big Data platform that combines proprietary plug-and-play hardware (ST-One Hardware®) capable of connecting to over 86% of PLCs and supporting 50+ communication protocols, with intelligent algorithms that classify and structure manufacturing data, and a visualization platform (Stash Platform™) that delivers real-time dashboards segmented by area, process, or indicator. The hardware-software combination is designed to integrate factory machinery from different manufacturers and varying technological maturities into a single data layer without requiring replacement of existing equipment.

The platform targets enterprise manufacturers across multiple verticals — Food & Beverage, Automotive, Pharmaceutical, Chemical, Pulp & Paper, Hygiene & Cleaning, Health & Beauty, Steel & Mining, and Textile — with use cases spanning ESG compliance, OEE/performance monitoring, quality control, predictive maintenance, and R&D analytics. ST-One operates in 24 countries across 3 continents and reports processing 300B+ data points with 25M+ platform accesses; named customers include AB InBev, PepsiCo, Henkel, Bosch, Audi, Novo Nordisk, Klabin, and M Dias Branco.

Revenue is generated through three streams: subscription/recurring revenue from the Stash Platform software, one-time hardware sales of the proprietary ST-One Hardware devices, and professional services for implementation and integration. GTM is consultative enterprise field sales with quote-based pricing via a "Talk to an expert" contact model and case-study-led demand generation; the company invests in content marketing, events, video, and social channels. The business is privately held with a single disclosed seed/early-stage round from F3 Ventures in April 2020.

Core offering

ST-One develops and sells the ST-One Solution™, an Industrial IoT and Big Data analytics platform for manufacturing. It combines proprietary ST-One Hardware® devices (plug-and-play, compatible with 86%+ of PLCs and 50+ protocols) that capture and transform machine data, intelligent algorithms that classify and structure that data, and the Stash Platform™ for real-time visualization, dashboards, and analytics used to improve production efficiency, OEE, quality, ESG compliance, and yield on the factory floor.

Product overview

ST-One offers a unified industrial data science platform combining three core components: the ST-One Hardware® (proprietary plug-and-play data collection devices compatible with over 86% of PLCs and 50+ protocols), the ST-One Solution™ (the main analytics engine using intelligent algorithms to classify and structure manufacturing data), and the Stash Platform™ (real-time visualization dashboards for monitoring factory floor operations). The platform aims to integrate all factory machinery into a single system, processing over 300 billion data points across 25 million+ platform accesses in 24 countries.

Broad incumbents

• Honeywell Forge: Honeywell Forge Connected Plant and Process Simulation offer industrial analytics and process optimization software at enterprise scale. Competes with ST-One for plant-level OEE, reliability, and ESG use cases, but from a far larger installed base.
• Schneider Electric EcoStruxure: Schneider Electric's EcoStruxure platform delivers industrial IoT, analytics, and operations management across discrete and process industries. Overlaps with ST-One's factory-floor monitoring, energy/utilities optimization, and ESG reporting use cases.
• Siemens Digital Industries: Siemens' MindSphere and Opcenter provide industrial cloud analytics and manufacturing operations management, tightly integrated with Siemens' automation installed base. A broad incumbent with overlapping IIoT analytics capabilities for large manufacturers.
• PTC: PTC offers ThingWorx and Kepware as a broader IIoT and industrial connectivity platform with analytics, serving a much wider customer base. Overlaps with ST-One's hardware-to-dashboard stack but at much larger scale and across multiple product lines.
• C3.ai: C3.ai provides an enterprise AI platform with manufacturing-specific applications for predictive maintenance, yield optimization, and ESG. Comparable in applying AI to industrial data but at a broader enterprise software scale.

Emerging players

• UptimeAI: UptimeAI offers AI-based predictive maintenance and uptime optimization for process manufacturing, combining sensor data with ML for plant reliability. An emerging peer whose use cases and target verticals intersect with ST-One's predictive and OEE offerings.
• SparkCognition: SparkCognition delivers industrial AI solutions including predictive maintenance, asset monitoring, and NLP for asset-heavy operators. A comparable AI-for-industry peer, although broader in scope than ST-One's manufacturing focus.

Direct peers

• Augury: Augury delivers AI-driven asset health and process monitoring for manufacturing, combining sensor/edge hardware with SaaS analytics. Comparable to ST-One in combining proprietary edge hardware with industrial AI software targeting factory operators.
• Sight Machine: Sight Machine is a manufacturing analytics platform that combines factory-floor data collection, AI, and dashboards for production optimization. It is a direct peer to ST-One in industrial data science for discrete and process manufacturers across similar verticals like F&B and automotive.
