About Atoptima

The supply chain is the leading source of CO2 emissions and the second largest cost driver for companies. Yet the most critical decisions are still made manually. Everywhere, the same paradox: businesses have access to more data than ever, but still struggle to turn it into optimal decisions. A real complexity that market solutions only partially address. And a growing pressure — on costs, on carbon, on lead times — that cannot wait.

It is to meet this challenge that Atoptima has created a new generation of optimization solvers, capable of automating the most complex supply chain decisions — where traditional software reaches its limits.

Who are we?

Founded in Bordeaux in 2019, Atoptima brings together the excellence of operations research and real-world supply chain expertise. With over 30 years of experience in mathematical optimization and AI, Atoptima's mission is to do more and better with less — by bringing decision intelligence into operations planning.

"Millions invested in digitalisation. And yet, the most critical supply chain decisions are still made by hand. That observation is what gave rise to Atoptima." Adrien Duruisseau, COO, Atoptima
