Cerebri AI solves problems – we solve your problems by using state-of-the-art data engineering and AI modeling to provide you with insights that will help you crush your competitors. Better decisions start with better data that drive deeper insights into your business. We use our ATQ data engineering platform to provide our reporting and modeling engines with the highest quality data possible. What data quality level do we have to get to? Certainly, a higher quality level than what everyone else uses – especially your competitors! And we do it in near real-time. What is the use of having better data to work with in making decisions if it arrives after it is needed? Our data engineering platform does not simply pass the data along; we have dozens of data transformers that can be deployed to QA and reconcile data from as many datasets as are required to get the job done. The goal of our data engineering is to get to one source of truth that includes the engineered features selected by our data scientists that drive the best possible results. Our one source of truth drives all of our reporting, business intelligence modeling, and our AI modeling. No more second guessing if the data matches up one report to another, including AI-based metrics. High-quality data drives the very best results when coupled with a wealth of data science experience. Our team has done over 100 installations in the largest corporate users in the world over the past two decades. We love solving the most complex analytical problems. We love corporate travel because most of the corporate travel datasets in this $1 trillion spend category reside outside of the enterprise, thus requiring serious levels of data engineering to make them useful. We love sustainability problems, including the challenges of calculating CO2 emissions. If you think we can help, please contact us; we would love to hear from you.
