MINTO.AI · WORLDVIEW · THE CONNECTED PLATE
The equipment the world runs on.
Thirteen classes of equipment, on one plate. None of them touches the product. All of them decide whether there is one. spiderAI™ is the contextual intelligence layer across them — a plant is instrumented at the level of parts and loses its money at the level of the whole.

WHY WE ARE HERE

We believe that the world we live in must be,

Sustainable
Reliable
Productive and Efficient

So, We develop accurate and reliable technology systems to ensure that the machines, equipment, and infrastructure powering our world make it sustainable, reliable, and efficient.

WHAT WE DO
PRODUCT

We design hardware that accurately captures essential data, and we enhance it with software and machine learning to provide real-time insights into the machinery that drives our world. We build AI to empower industrial engineers and technicians to operate these systems with world-class efficiency and reliability.

OUR MISSION

We Build accurate & Reliable systems

Businesses and organizations managing large fleets of equipment and machinery bear the critical responsibility of keeping the world running on schedule. This is an immense challenge, requiring technology systems that ensure peak performance and efficiency, day in and day out, for years.

Such systems are rare because they must be both highly accurate and reliable. How many technologies in your experience truly meet these standards? This underscores the magnitude of the challenge.

For an IoT system to meet these demands (accurate & reliable), it must be robust, scalable, and capable of gathering high-fidelity data. The system must also be intelligent; without this, scaling becomes inefficient and eventually a major burden.

We partner with these businesses and organizations to deliver reliable and accurate technology systems, enabling them to operate their machinery at peak performance and efficiency with world-class reliability for years.

OUR STORY

Finding truth is essential to manage entropy and keep the world running smoothly. The quest for finding the truth in the machines that runs our world : The minto.ai Story

From accurate MCSA Innovation to reliable IoT systems and on to the future with AI-Powered Co-Intelligence

NOVEMBER 2017

Genesis & Market Research

Drawing from diverse experiences in manufacturing, data science, and engineering, we began exploring solutions for industrial challenges. We visited nearly 10 manufacturing plants across various companies to gain insights into their operations and challenges.

Solution Development

We identified Motor Current Signature Analysis (MCSA) as a groundbreaking approach to diagnose both electrical and mechanical faults in rotating machines. We developed an IoT device that can be installed inside the motor control cabinet — a central location where power is supplied to all machines in the plant.
