Managed AI visual inspection for manufacturing

Overview

Shelfmark provides an AI-powered computer vision platform that automates inline visual inspections for manufacturers, improving quality control and reducing waste.

The platform targets 100% product inspection, helping clients cut waste by up to 90% and achieve about 50% labor savings, with a clear ROI.
