Cognite was recently named a leader in the Industrial AI Analytics Green Quadrant from Verdantix, following a dominant position in their Industrial Data Management Quadrant.
Proud Leaders in Two Key Industrial Quadrants
While industrial AI continues to be top of mind for digital and operations leadership to predict and prevent asset failures, optimize yield, quality, and energy use, and support enterprise-wide performance improvement and sustainability goals, the vendor landscape is becoming increasingly complicated to navigate. Today, many executives turn to independent analyst firms for their perspective on how the latest Data & AI capabilities stack up across different vendors.
This year, Cognite is particularly proud to be named a leader in both the latest Industrial AI Analytics Green Quadrant (Sept 2025) and the Industrial Data Management Green Quadrant (January 2025) from Verdantix. The recognition highlights Cognite’s unique ability to bridge the gap between world-class data management and cutting-edge industrial AI solutions, enabling the adoption of industrial AI at a faster pace and broader scale than ever before.
Agentic AI to transform traditional AI Analytics
In the recent Industrial AI Analytics Green Quadrant, Verdantix provides a detailed, fact-based benchmark of the most prominent industrial AI analytics software providers in the market. Their study found that “the industrial AI analytics market is evolving, as organizations prioritize platforms that can scale beyond pilots, unify and contextualize diverse data sources, and embed AI-driven insights directly into operational workflows.” While most of the analysis focused on traditional machine learning and ML ops capabilities, Cognite secured its leadership position with innovative Agentic AI capabilities that we view as the future in industrial AI analytics and automation.
Guided by the market and our diverse customer base, we believe that Agentic AI will eventually displace the need for hundreds of individual ML-based applications, in favor of easily-configurable AI agents capable of advanced analytics and reasoning. This future is already being realized by customers who are already adopting the technology, including Aker BP, ADNOC Offshore, Celanese, Hess Corporation, HMH, Idemitsu, and Tokuyama, and by partners such as SLB, Radix, Omny, Tridiagonal.ai, and ReVisionz.
Data Management Still More Important Than Ever
But as many operators are discovering, deploying AI in a successful, scalable way for production environments depends on their approach to industrial data management. Complex industrial data must be accessible, contextualized, governed, and AI-ready for use with any AI approach, including physics-based machine learning, predictive algorithms, and/or today’s LLMs. Joe Lamming, Senior Analyst, Industrial Transformation at Verdantix, noted “Industrial data management solutions play a critical role in enabling organizations to effectively integrate and leverage their data, particularly as AI becomes increasingly central to industrial operations.”
Verdantix’s Industrial Data Management Green Quadrant explored these concepts in depth, with Cognite receiving perfect scores in data modeling, indirect industrial data acquisition, platform APIs, and platform development environment.
A smarter path forward with Cognite Atlas AI
Operators looking to jump-start or accelerate their AI program can capitalize on Cognite’s strengths in industrial AI Analytics and data management, through Cognite Atlas AI, the only low-code industrial AI agent workbench to power agents with real-time, AI-ready operational technology (OT), information technology (IT), and engineering data. With newly-released features that empower organizations to implement AI solutions faster and with greater confidence, Atlas AI enables operators to accelerate their digital transformation with trustworthy AI agents.
"Cognite’s latest release for Cognite Atlas AI is a leap toward narrowing the pilot‑to‑production gap," said Joe Lamming, Senior Analyst, Technical Lead, AI Applied, at Verdantix. "Our research shows scalable agents depend on extremely precise context engineering – domain models that faithfully represent what matters, machine‑traversable semantic connections, massive concurrency, governed tool access, and drill‑down observability – well beyond what a chat interface alone provides. Atlas AI natively extends Cognite's DataOps platform to automate common operational tasks in a user-configurable, domain-specific low-code workbench. We see such product suites as there to enable scoped, production‑grade automations with human oversight – not just early-adopter demos – for more organizations."
Cognite Atlas AI is available today with off-the-shelf Industrial AI agents for Root Cause Analysis, Work Package Generation, Time Series analysis and more.
The Partner of Choice for Industrial Transformation
A defining aspect of Cognite’s strategy is its openness to partner with any vendor of choice, rather than forcing customers into a closed-stack ecosystem. Its industrial data foundation and APIs are designed for interoperability. This openness ensures that industrial firms get the best of both worlds: a trusted data backbone and the flexibility to innovate with the partners and tools that best fit their needs.
For industrial firms navigating digital transformation, this translates into faster time-to-value, lower integration risks, and measurable performance improvements in uptime, efficiency, and sustainability. By uniting industrial DataOps leadership with industrial AI leadership, Cognite is uniquely positioned to help asset-intensive industries overcome their biggest digital challenges: scaling AI beyond pilots, unlocking trapped data, and embedding intelligence into day-to-day operations.
