  • Datamint

    Participated · Seed · Jun 2026

    Datamint builds a platform that integrates data from industrial systems, ERPs, sensors and operational histories to produce auditable, real-time operational recommendations for maintenance and operations teams. The company combines generative and other AI models with deterministic systems, operational rules and mathematical optimization to prioritize maintenance actions while preserving traceability and regulatory compliance. Datamint targets sectors including oil & gas, energy, sanitation and heavy industry and intends to expand into pharmaceuticals, steel and cement. The startup emphasizes augmenting human decision-making rather than replacing professionals in high-risk industrial environments. Datamint was founded in 2021 and raised US$5 million in a seed round led by Headline with participation from Opus Investimentos, Valutia and Kittyhawk to fund platform expansion, engineering hires and commercial growth.
