What is aPriori?

aPriori is a software platform focused on product cost management (PCM). It provides manufacturers and product innovators with the ability to analyze and optimize the cost of parts, products, and tooling throughout the product lifecycle. This helps companies make more informed decisions related to design, sourcing, and manufacturing, ultimately reducing costs and improving profitability. It does this by leveraging virtual production environments and detailed manufacturing process simulations. It is commonly used for cost estimation, should-costing analysis, design for manufacturability (DFM), and supplier negotiation.
