AI agents that help your factory teams do their best work

For Sri Lankan apparel and manufacturing. Our agents take the counting, reporting and chasing off your merchandisers, planners, supervisors and quality teams, so they can spend their time on the floor, with their people and on the decisions only they can make.

Built to support people, not replace them.

People make the factory. Agents make their day easier.

Sri Lankan manufacturing is known for skilled people and ethical production. Our AI is designed to strengthen that, not replace it.

People decide

Agents suggest and prepare. Supervisors, planners and managers approve every action that matters.

Explainable

Every suggestion shows the data behind it, so teams can trust it or overrule it.

Trained with your team

We design with the people on the floor and train them, in Sinhala, Tamil or English.

More skill, less paperwork

Time saved on reporting goes back into coaching, quality and improvement.

Apparel: an AI assistant for every role in the factory

Sri Lankan apparel runs on skilled people and tight buyer deadlines. Our agents take the repetitive data work off each role, so the people who know the floor can spend their time on it.

Today

What stays with peopleKeeps the buyer relationship, negotiates and makes the calls.

A day on the floor, with agents helping

The agent prepares, checks and chases. People approve and act. Every step below follows that pattern.

Beyond apparel: Sri Lanka’s other manufacturers

The same approach, people supported by agents and reliable data, adapted to each industry’s process.

From estate to auction and export, tea runs on daily data that is still largely on paper.

Green leaf intake

Weight and quality per supplier and collection point, recorded on mobile and reconciled automatically.

Factory processing

Withering, rolling, fermentation and drying data monitored, with alerts when a batch drifts.

Grading and stock

Made-tea stock by grade, ready for broker catalogues and sale planning.

Supplier payments

Smallholder payments calculated from intake and quality, with SMS slips.

Built on your data, running on your infrastructure

Agents are only as good as the data behind them. We connect what you already have, clean it in reliable pipelines and run task-specific models on your own servers or private cloud, so production data stays inside the company.

Questions factory leaders ask

Will AI agents replace our workers?

No. Our agents take over repetitive data work: counting, reconciling, reporting and chasing. Decisions, leadership and skilled work stay with your people. The goal is to give supervisors, planners and QC teams time back for the work only they can do.

Our factory still uses paper and Excel. Is that a problem?

No, that is where most factories start. We begin with simple tablet or mobile capture on the floor and connect the spreadsheets you already use, then improve step by step.

Does our production data leave the company?

It does not have to. We can run the data pipelines and task-specific AI models on your own servers or private cloud.

Can it work with our ERP?

Yes. We integrate with common ERPs and in-house systems through APIs or database connections, and we can modernise legacy systems where needed.

How do operators and supervisors use it?

Through simple mobile and tablet screens, dashboards on the floor, and alerts on WhatsApp or email. We design them with your team and train everyone who uses them.

How long until we see results?

A pilot on one line or one team typically runs for about four weeks, with the success measures agreed before we start.
