The reliable spine
The reliable spine is non-AI workflow, arithmetic, integrations, approvals and reporting for Document and report extraction.
Metals, Foundries & Steel
Document and report extraction
Half the plant's real data never reaches a system. It sits in weighbridge tickets, paper heat-cards and charge sheets, printed spectrometer and chemistry-lab reports, PDF scrap and ferro-alloy invoices, lorry receipts and GRNs, re-keyed by hand or never captured, which is why the energy, yield, leak and reconciliation solutions run short of data to work on.
Who has it
Across all segments, and sharpest for scrap and metal traders (weighbridge and grading slips) and for foundries and forging and heat-treatment units (heat-cards and lab and spectro reports).
What we build
Read the data trapped in tickets, scans, emails and printed reports (weighbridge tickets, heat-cards, charge sheets, lab/spectro reports, vendor invoices, GRNs, lorry receipts) into clean structured rows in the data layer.
What is automated, where AI helps, who signs off
Automation for the routine. A person on every decision that matters.
Where AI helps
AI is limited to bounded reading, extraction, matching, clustering or drafting from the firm's own data for Document and report extraction; it never owns the number, the approval, the promise or the decision.
Who signs off
A named person signs off anything touching money, stock, a customer promise, a regulated filing, a payment, a price, a credit decision or a people decision.
What changes day to day
Documents become data automatically, feeding energy monitoring, leak detection, reconciliation and dashboards instead of choking them; re-keying hours disappear. Often the quiet prerequisite that makes the rest of the pillar work in a paper-heavy plant. Illustrative; final numbers come from your own data.
