I would be interested on how they do that - do they drill down into the processes mixing efficiency, temperatures pressures etc

Yes, they gather data from all possible sensors. This data is aready there though. Their product just visualizes it and their consultants/forward deployed engineers (or w/e they are called) basically create pipelines and transformations to feed it into their visualization service.

I don't remember exactly, but one example improvement was that they detected temperature fluctuations inside the reaction tank (e.g. upper side hotter than bottom) during bad production batches.

This was detected by visualizing the temperature across the reaction time on good vs bad batches.

It's an interesting find, but personally I think the work they have to do to get there is super boring.

Cool at my first job I worked on some experiments that looked at mixing efficiency.
