Alcemy offers an AI-powered software platform that provides quality predictions across clinker production and at ready-mix concrete plants, delivering real-time insights along the entire value chain. Its algorithms enable producers to reduce clinker content step by step, with reported emissions reductions of up to 65 percent, while improving quality and lowering production costs. The company has demonstrated its solution in commercial settings, including a partnership with Spenner to produce a low-clinker, low-carbon cement mixture. Alcemy has also secured TITAN America as a customer and will deploy its quality-control software at a Titan cement plant in Florida. Founded in 2018 and based in Berlin, the startup plans to use new funding to continue research and development and to enter multiple new markets in 2024, including the United States. alcemy builds machine-learning and control-technology software that provides precise quality predictions for cement and concrete mixtures and their ingredients before shipping. The product enables manufacturers to counterbalance limestone and cement fluctuations, incorporate recycled ingredients safely, and produce higher-quality material at lower cost. The company says its solution can save up to 50% CO2 during production and that the startup and customers reduced 80,000 tonnes of CO2 in 2021. Founded in 2018 by Leopold Spenner and Dr. Robert Meyer, alcemy targets decarbonisation and regulatory compliance challenges in the cement and concrete industry. The startup will use the Series A proceeds to accelerate growth of its software development team and to build a sales team. alcemy positions its offering as a way to scale more sustainable cement and concrete production in a historically high-emission sector.
