Almetra

Almetra (formerly Deltia) is a Berlin manufacturing-intelligence company that mounts AI cameras over production lines to turn shop-floor video into real-time operational data — cycle times, output, utilisation and micro-stoppages — processed at the edge with privacy-by-design anonymisation. Founded in 2022 by Maximilian Fischer and Silviu Homoceanu as a Merantix venture build, it pairs vision analytics with MES/PLC/ERP context and continuous-improvement engineers so factories can diagnose and fix productivity losses, not only see dashboards. Customers cited in press include Bosch, Siemens Energy and other European manufacturers; the company is expanding into the US and has joined programmes such as Google DeepMind’s Robotics Accelerator. In June 2026 Almetra raised a $19 million (€16.3 million) Series A led by blisce/, with NAP, Merantix Capital, Robin Capital, Underline, Critical Ventures and angels participating. Capital funds US expansion and product scale. Sources: Almetra 25 Jun 2026; Tech.eu; The Next Web.
