About the Product – Process Intelligence
Process Intelligence is an AI-enabled process monitoring platform that uses wireless or IP-based cameras to observe plant-floor activities. It anonymizes individuals in the video feed using image pre-processing, then streams footage to a cloud-based large language model (LLM) for intelligent analysis. At its core, a dedicated data and integration layer connects factory and enterprise systems, providing consistent data for monitoring and insights.

Users define use cases via natural language prompts and can provide reference materials (documents, videos, or images) to help the system detect process deviations. The result: improved compliance, efficiency, and visibility on the plant floor.
