Built by People Who
Understand Factories

CountAI was founded by IIT Madras engineers with deep experience at Philips Healthcare, Toyota Autonomous Cars, and global textile machinery. We build AI that works on the factory floor — not just in the lab.

Our Mission

We deploy AI vision inside factories to eliminate defects, recover lost production time, and protect worker safety — at 20 milliseconds.

Powered by Intel Edge Compute

CountAI runs on Intel-based edge hardware deployed on-premise inside each factory. Our hardware partnership with Intel ensures every system delivers industrial-grade performance — without cloud dependency.

On-Premise Processing

All AI inference runs locally on Intel edge devices. No data leaves the factory.

20ms Latency

Intel compute enables real-time defect detection faster than human reaction time.

Industrial Grade

Ruggedized hardware built for 24/7 factory operation in harsh conditions.

Global Presence

Deployed in factories across three continents and expanding fast.
