Target: The transformation of Internet of Things (IoT) powered industrial businesses through AI
T-DAB.AI aims to use decentralized artificial intelligence to change the developing way of industrial companies based on the Internet of Things (IoT).
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning can deliver high ROI and new revenue sources across many applications in the industry. Still, its widespread adoption is hampered by a lack of suitable machine learning infrastructure and the need to centralize data, leading to privacy risks, high costs, overdependence on cloud platforms and network availability.
OctaiPipe, the product developed by T.DAB.AI, is a paradigm shift for the artificial intelligence solutions used by industrial businesses. It reduces operating costs maintenance through Predictive Maintenance PreM@OctiaPipe, as well as privacy risks, network costs and dependence on the Cloud. Customers can buy pre-built solutions or develop their own to deploy and scale on OctaiPipe.
"We invested in T-DAB.AI because it is a company created by an excellent team, by people who are very well-trained in business, technology and sales. They have also developed a solid set of innovative products and services in a technical field applicable in many industries, including production, energy, automotive, smart buildings, heating and ventilation systems. The solution is already validated, the current sales are excellent and have very high traction", says Ciprian Man, one of the investors and founders of Growceanu.
T-DAB.AI plans to develop new products this year, add customers and develop new business verticals such as smart energy or predictive maintenance solutions.
“T-DAB.AI aims to reduce the operating expenses for the industrial, energy, and IoT segments through a combination of innovative AI and ML assets and efficient processes and automation. T-DAB.AI has a great team and very ambitious plans that checked my boxes. And for these reasons, I decided to invest in the company”, says Sebastian Ivan, one of the investors.
