The recipe already exists.We find it.

Color Brain turns your factory's dye history into a searchable memory: one new target in, one proven recipe out — or calibrated silence.

Live inference · one target

Watch history become a decision.

No generated formula. No black-box guess. Color Brain searches what your factory has already proven.

01Index
Your production memory, mapped.
Historical batch records become a living CIELAB map. Substrate, process, recipe, and measured outcome remain connected as evidence.
02Search
A new target enters the map.
Retrieval propagates only through compatible history, finding the closest proven recipe on the same substrate and production context.
03Recommend
Evidence clears the confidence gate.
You receive a recipe your factory actually ran, with its batch number, measured result, neighborhood evidence, and win probability.
04Abstain
Not enough evidence? It stays silent.
The same gate that makes a recommendation useful also knows when not to make one. Calibrated silence is part of the product.

The cost of guessing

Guessing is expensive. Repeating it is worse.

Most color-matching tools start from a generic model and spend months correcting toward your factory — after you've paid for new hardware. Color Brain starts from the recipes your factory already proved, on day one.

4–6: attempts on average to approve a new color
50%: of first attempts miss the target
$500–2K: typical cost per failed attempt

Validated holdout · first_attempt_v1

Tested on jobs it had never seen.

Trained on 12,398 real production records, then evaluated on 2,043 future holdout jobs. Color Brain never invents a recipe — it retrieves one your factory already ran, only on the same substrate, and only when confident.

Recommendation quality

86.7%

of recommendations beat the technician's first attempt.

Holdout protocol: 2,043 future jobs; 12,398 training records
Selective coverage: 20.3%; 414 recommendations
Median improvement: +0.2082; ΔE on recommended jobs
Calibrated silence: ~80%; withheld below confidence

On the ~80% of jobs where Color Brain abstains, it is saying the evidence isn't strong enough to beat your technician's first attempt. Selectivity is the point — a recommendation you can trust.

Case studies · validated holdout

Five real jobs. Five wins.

The plate is the job's actual target color. Rings measure ΔE distance from a perfect match — the spec gate sits at 1.0. See where the technician's first attempt landed, and where Color Brain's recipe did.

Who it's for

Every link in the color chain.

Brands

Fewer rejected batches. Faster color approvals.

You set the standard. Color Brain helps your supply chain hit your color spec on the first attempt — fewer lab-dip rounds, faster final approval.

Suppliers

Hit the brand's spec. Without the guesswork.

You win or lose contracts on consistency. Color Brain draws on your own production history to recommend recipes more likely to pass first time, cutting rejections before they cost you.

Factories

Less rework. More consistent output at scale.

At scale, every first-attempt failure multiplies. Color Brain works across your entire job volume, cutting the rework that eats into your margins.
