Inspection

Modernizing Inspection AI. Accuracy, Safety, and Speed.

Oil-Gas

Key challenges

Inspection-intensive industries—from telecom and utilities to manufacturing and infrastructure—use AI to detect defects, monitor assets, and reduce downtime. Key challenges include:

Visual complexity

AI must detect nuanced issues (e.g., corrosion, cracks, wear) in variable visual environments.

Incomplete data

Drones, sensors, and imagery data often contain noise or gaps.

Annotation bottlenecks

Precision labeling is labor-intensive and difficult to scale.

Compliance demands

Failures in inspection AI can have serious safety and regulatory consequences.

Key trends

AI is automating inspection workflows to improve accuracy, safety, and cost-efficiency:

Anomaly detection

Vision models identify defects in equipment and infrastructure.

Predictive maintenance

AI predicts failures before they happen, reducing downtime.

Remote inspections

Drones and robotics enable safer, more frequent asset checks.

Digital twins

AI integrates real-time data to simulate and monitor system performance.

What our Clients are Saying

The models we have in production today would’ve taken us much longer to build on our own and would’ve required more upfront costs,” says Lwowski. “I don’t think there was a faster way to get the data labeled with the quality we needed—and within the time we needed.
