Synthetaic provides automated detection and analysis services using artificial intelligence. Its main product, RAIC, is an AI pipeline that processes large, unstructured datasets, such as security camera footage and geospatial imagery, through cloud-hosted APIs. Unlike traditional methods that require labeled data and can take a long time, RAIC can analyze data in minutes, making it particularly useful for industries that need quick insights, like emergency response. Clients include organizations like the World Food Programme and Carbon Yield, who use RAIC for tasks such as search and rescue operations and identifying methane emissions from livestock facilities. Synthetaic's business model allows clients to integrate its AI technology into their existing systems, enabling them to benefit from AI without needing in-house expertise.
