An algorithm-based assembly line design application helps optimize workstations and inventory costs through automated workstation design and redesign. It addresses inefficient assembly lines, especially for small businesses. After an alpha test resulted in over $30 million in savings, the software is seeking additional manufacturer data, funding, and an experienced CEO for further development and validation of its beta version.
