Applied Visual Intelligence
We develop cutting edge computer vision products & services using deep learning
Products
We offer image and video recognition APIs which can be integrated into your systems.
Example APIs:
WASTE RECYCLING API
This API enables sorting of waste types including glass, cardboard, paper, plastic and trash (non-recyclable) to automate and improve recycling processes.
CAR/AUTO API
This API recognises 6,500+ car types, identifying make, model and year. It can be used to streamline insurance quotes, automatically tag images for e-commerce sites, inform brands through social listening and more.
Services
Drawing on the latest research, we provide turnkey computer vision solutions to companies looking to partner for their AI requirements involving image or video datasets.
DATA
We provide tools and processes for data collection and labelling.
MODEL
We select and apply the best approach to train deep learning models for your needs.
Deployment
We deploy on cloud, on device or on premise.
Maintenance
We track and optimise performance over time.
