## Summary

Saar Yoskovitz, Co-Founder and CEO of Augury, explains how his company provides a full-stack AI-based machine health solution to large manufacturers like Colgate and Hershey's. He details the decision to build proprietary sensors and diagnostics in-house to ensure rapid time-to-value and avoid the integration pitfalls that cause 82% of digital transformations to fail. Yoskovitz discusses Augury's recent $55 million Series D funding, the convergence of IT and OT in enterprise decision-making, and a new partnership with Munich Re to offer guaranteed diagnostics backed by insurance.
