ST. LOUIS — Emerson announced it has acquired Glue Inc., an innovator in advancing intelligent validation and test through its AI-enabled software product Glue Studio. Glue Studio features specialized AI-centric capabilities for test generation and planning. The acquisition strengthens Emerson’s strategy to deliver more software-defined, data-centric capabilities across Test & Measurement’s NI portfolio.
Glue Studio’s technology accelerates the continued investment in Emerson’s NI Nigel™ AI, the industry’s first AI specifically optimized for test and measurement workflows.
