Together, the C3 Agentic AI Platform, the C3 AI Reliability application, and Univation’s deep expertise will provide an enterprise-scale AI solution that identifies equipment issues proactively, maximizes uptime, and augments operational performance for steam cracker operations.

Our work with Dow sets the standard for how industrial companies can use AI to drive efficiency, reduce costs, and optimize performance. And this collaboration with Univation will accelerate adoption of this proven, domain-specific AI application across the broader petrochemical industry and support modernization across the market by delivering real, measurable benefits of AI at scale.” -Ed Abbo, Chief Technology Officer, C3 AI.
