Latent AI focuses on enhancing artificial intelligence for edge computing, which involves processing data close to where it is generated, like on smartphones and IoT devices. Their main product is an edge MLOps workflow that automates the optimization of AI models, making them efficient and ready for deployment on these devices. This process ensures that the models are compressed, secure, and perform well without needing much maintenance. Latent AI serves various clients, including government agencies and businesses, who need effective AI solutions for real-time data processing in areas like autonomous vehicles and smart cities. Unlike competitors, Latent AI offers a software development kit (SDK) called Latent LEIP, which aids developers in creating and deploying efficient AI models. The company's goal is to make AI more accessible and efficient for edge applications, meeting the increasing demand for real-time processing.
