Potassco provides AI-driven decision support using Answer Set Programming (ASP) to solve complex combinatorial problems such as production planning, shift scheduling, route optimization, and system configuration. Their platform separates business rules from a high‑performance solver, delivering provably optimal, transparent solutions that can be updated without code changes, and includes consulting, integration, and support services for enterprises in manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, and mobility.

Problem
Many organizations face complex combinatorial decision problems—such as production planning, shift scheduling, route optimization, and configuration design—that require balancing numerous constraints and criteria. Traditional optimization tools are often opaque, hard to adapt, and demand extensive custom coding, leading to slow implementation and limited transparency.
Solution
Potassco Solutions offers AI-driven decision support built on Answer Set Programming (ASP), an open-source knowledge representation and reasoning framework. By encoding business rules and constraints as logical programs, the system can compute mathematically optimal solutions that are provably correct and fully traceable. The approach separates the rule set from the solver, allowing users to modify requirements without rewriting code while preserving solution stability. Results are delivered quickly, enabling real-time or near‑real‑time decision making across domains such as manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, and mobility. Potassco also provides consulting, custom development, and ongoing support to integrate these AI solutions into existing IT environments.
Target Audience
Primary customers are enterprises in manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, and mobility sectors that need automated, optimal planning and configuration, as well as engineering teams seeking a transparent, maintainable AI optimization platform.
