Optiant

Optiant, Inc. was a Boston-area supply chain optimization software company founded in 2000 on multi-echelon inventory optimization technology developed by researchers at MIT. Its flagship PowerChain suite (Network Design, Inventory, and Planner) let global manufacturers and distributors model multidimensional supply chains and free up working capital trapped across multi-echelon networks. Optiant was acquired by Logility, Inc. in 2010 (~$3.3M) and its technology was folded into Logility's Voyager Solutions suite as Voyager Inventory Optimization. The company no longer operates independently and publishes no public API surface; the optiant.com domain no longer resolves. This profile was surfaced as a Battery Ventures portfolio company and enriched as a historical/defunct lead.

Optiant is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Supply Chain, Inventory Optimization, Supply Chain Optimization, and Manufacturing.
