The city's bet on becoming Europe's 'Silicon Valley of the South' has attracted billions in investment and created massive demand for software development services. - **Quality-Inspection Cameras**: AI on the line catches defects at 10-50x human throughput, with full image evidence logged. - **Production Scheduling**: Orders, material stock, energy cost and line capacity optimised together, hours vs. the days of manual Excel work. - **Supplier Invoice OCR**: Clean accounting entries into SAP/Dynamics/Odoo with 3-way match to POs and receipts. - **Incident Classification**: Free-text maintenance reports automatically classified by cause, severity and root-cause pattern. - **Bilingual Shift-Change Reports**: Our bilingual team ships English and Spanish content natively. Your AI agent speaks your customers' language without awkward translations. - **Production Cost per Batch**: Materials, machine time, scrap and labour assigned per batch, giving a real unit cost instead of a standard cost nobody trusts. - **Purchasing and Supplier Invoice Matching**: Purchase orders, delivery notes and supplier invoices matched three ways, so price and quantity differences are caught before payment. - **Shift Planning and Plant Payroll**: Shifts planned against the production programme, with clock-ins, bonuses and overtime prepared for payroll. - **Plant Management Dashboard**: Output, scrap, downtime and unit cost per line in one weekly view, with the deviations explained rather than just plotted. - **In-Line Quality Inspection**: Cameras check every unit against the reference instead of a sample, catching defects at the station where they happen rather than at the end. - **Safety and PPE on the Floor**: People in machine zones, missing protection and blocked exits detected live, with each event logged for the safety report. - **Your Own Chat, Not Only WhatsApp**: WhatsApp is one channel, not the plan. We build real-time chat straight into your own website or app, as we did for Boathous and ReservPark, and connect Instagram, web chat, email or the phone line to the same assistant, so the conversation lives where your customers already are. - **Fits the Tools You Already Run**: We plug into the software you already work with instead of asking you to migrate, your booking system, your ERP, your accounting, your spreadsheets if that is what you have. And when the piece you need does not exist in any product on the market, we build it to measure, because that is what we do the rest of the week. - **Prevention on the Shop Floor**: Our Spanish team is perfectly positioned to serve Malaga's international tech community, working fluently in both English and Spanish. ## How We Build Your AI for Manufacturing in Malaga - **Plant Walkthrough**: We walk the line in your Malaga plant, identify high-ROI automation points. - **Sensor / Camera Survey**: We audit available PLC data and where cameras can add value. - **Model Training**: Historical sensor data for predictive models; labeled defect images for vision models. - **Edge Deployment**: Industrial-grade hardware on the shop floor, no cloud dependency. - **MES/ERP Integration**: SAP, Dynamics, Odoo, custom MES.

Siemens S7, Allen-Bradley, Schneider, Mitsubishi, Omron; SCADA from Ignition, Wonderware, zenon and custom stacks. OPC-UA is our default integration. ### Does it work on non-connected machines? Yes, we retrofit low-cost IoT sensors (vibration, current, temperature) on legacy machines so the predictive layer works without replacing the PLC. ### How much? A single-line pilot and a multi-line plant are different scales of project. Payback often hits within one quarter at industrial volumes, and starting with one line is the cheapest way to prove it before committing the plant. ### On-prem mandatory? Usually yes, both for latency and data sovereignty. We deploy on industrial-grade Linux servers with local failover. ### ISA-95 compatible? Yes. Our integrations respect the ISA-95 hierarchy and push events to your MES at the appropriate level. ### Do you work with Malaga businesses remotely? We work with companies across Malaga's tech ecosystem, from the PTA technology park to the growing startup scene in Soho and the digital businesses along the Costa del Sol.
