DataProphet is excited to be a part of AI Expo Africa and is proud to take part in the inaugural event.

In recent years, DataProphet has emerged as an industry leader in AI for the manufacturing industry.  The company has provided significant ROI for clients in the casting and automotive industries by helping these companies cut down on their scrap and rework rates.  Venture Capital firm Knife Capital recently invested in DataProphet, enabling the scale-up to extend its reach into the USA and Europe, giving companies in these regions access to DataProphet’s cutting-edge OMNI process control optimization solution for Industry 4.0.

 

OMNI is a powerful machine learning technology that eliminates the production of defects through dynamically prescribing optimal control parameters to the manufacturing process. OMNI has realised significant results for clients, including the reduction of defects by 75% in one automotive assembly plant and the complete elimination of defects at another.

On the success of OMNI, DataProphet has gone on to lead several Industry 4.0 transformation projects, both locally and abroad.  Vision – an advanced machine vision solution for quality control applications – is among OMNI’s constituent machine learning models. Clients who implement Vision in their manufacturing processes enjoy numerous benefits including early detection of defects during batch processes, improved quality control, and simplified collection of data for customer documentation and reporting.

OMNI embeds 4 years of DataProphet’s learnt experience in implementing AI. This is evident in OMNI’s modular build which allows it to be configured to optimize any data-intensive manufacturing process. This reflects DataProphet’s philosophy toward AI: it’s a tool that should readily adapt to existing IT and data infrastructure.

DataProphet will be in the startup booth at AI Expo Africa. Alongside Knife Capital Co-founder, Keet Van Zyl, DataProphet CEO, Frans Cronje will reveal how indigenous venture capital and local innovation have come together to produce OMNI – a cutting-edge AI manufacturing solution for Industry 4.0.
