State-of-the-art Edge AI platform to accelerate UKs AI adoption – The Manufacturer

UK deep tech AI company, T-DAB.AI, has closed its funding round of 495,000 to accelerate the development of its Edge AI platform.

Funding has been sourced from private angel investors, including Growceanu, and non-equity funding from Innovate UK as part of an industry collaboration with Domin and the University of Bath.

This rounds funds will bring forward more advanced Federated Learning capabilities, automated Edge ML-Ops, and accelerated deployment mechanisms. In addition, funds will support the evolution of the sales and marketing functions of T-DAB.AI.

T-DAB.AIs state-of-the-art Edge AI platform will revolutionise AI for IoT applications. It will enable Edge AI to be implemented across IoT infrastructure without the need to move vast volumes of data to the cloud. Hence increasing security and privacy, reducing expensive data and compute costs, and reducing the need for continuous network connectivity for connected device intelligence.

At the core of the platform is a new paradigm known as Federated Learning. T-DAB.AIs vision is to serve seamless and massively scalable Federated Learning to the full spectrum of Edge compute, all the way down to the chip.

Designed by data scientists, T-DAB.AIs platform enables teams to build or buy machine learning solutions, trained at the Edge, and push models into production and deploy them faster, more privately, and cost efficiently than ever before. Users of the platform can either build their own solutions, or adopt pre-packaged solutions developed by T-DAB.AI and use AI to solve high-value industrial machine intelligence use cases.

This rounds funds will bring forward more advanced Federated Learning capabilities, automated Edge ML-Ops, and accelerated deployment mechanisms. In addition, funds will support the evolution of the sales and marketing functions of T-DAB.AI.

We invested in T-DAB because it is a company made up of an excellent team, with people 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, HVAC and Smart Building. The solution is already validated, the current sales are excellent and have a very high traction.
