Research-Grade AI That Works in the Field
We're not building another model or another cloud. We take the best available AI and make it work inside real operations — agriculture, manufacturing, infrastructure, and beyond.
Our 5-Step Methodology
Most AI projects fail not because the algorithm is wrong, but because the solution doesn't fit real operations
Diagnose
Understand the real operational problem — not just the stated one.
Design
Architect a solution using the best available AI, sensors, and systems.
Deliver Fast
Deploy a working version quickly using our internal tools and model library.
Transfer
Co-develop with your engineers, document everything, train the team to operate.
Evolve
Provide ongoing model improvement, maintenance, and support as needs change.
Capability Transfer Is the Product
We work with your staff throughout the project. By the time the system launches, your people understand how it works and can handle daily operations. They don't need IoA-8Lab to keep the lights on.
But AI systems are not static. Models degrade, environments change, new requirements appear. When the hard problems come — retraining, major upgrades, new capabilities — you come back to IoA-8Lab. This creates a natural, honest long-term relationship.
"We sell understanding first. Implementation follows naturally."
Internal Acceleration Tools
These are not products we sell — they're what make our service exceptional
Why Not a Big Consultancy?
Large consultancies can do AI consulting. But they lack:
A Decade of Field Research
10 years of domain-specific field research that can't be replicated in 6 months.
Proven Model Library
An internal library of validated models ready to deploy, not build from scratch.
Willingness to Embed
The commitment to work alongside a 10-person farm team or factory floor crew.
Patent-Backed Technology
7 Japanese patents in perception, automation, and grading systems.
IoA-8Lab occupies the space between "too academic to ship" and "too corporate to understand the problem."
