prenode’s AssetCore Monitoring live at SmartFactory-KL

In a comprehensive analysis of over 1000 AI startups, carried out by appliedAI Institute for Europe gGmbH in collaboration with Deutsche Telekom, NVIDIA, Intel, UnternehmerTUM and eleven renowned venture capital companies, prenode was named one of the 687 most promising AI startups in Germany.

Since February 2024, Factory-X has been driving forward the digitization of German industry. Based as part of the Manufacturing-X Initiative, which is funded by industry, politics and science under the umbrella of the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK), Factory-X aims at the secure and efficient exchange of data throughout the production and supply chain.

We proudly announce that it has again secured a spot in The German AI Startup Landscape for the third time. This recognition places prenode as one of the 508 most promising AI startups in Germany for the current year.

prenode, in partnership with TRUMPF Werkzeugmaschinen SE & Co. KG, has unveiled an innovative technology that empowers live monitoring and remote troubleshooting for Equipment-as-a-Service (EaaS) in the sheet metal industry.

We are very happy to announce that prenode has been listed for the second time on the AI Startup Landscape 2022 (in the section platform) as one of the 304 most promising AI startups in Germany.

The German AI Association connects the most innovative AI and deep tech companies with industry partners and politics. It is the largest AI network in Germany with more than 350 members.

We are honored to be part of the Industry 4.0 map once again in the area of "Analytics/Efficiency".

In episode #25 of the Tech + Founder Podcast of the Technologiefabrik Karlsruhe, prenode CEO Dr.-Ing. Robin Hirt talks about AI in mechanical engineering.

Our CEO Robin Hirt participated in the digital event START-UP THE FUTURE of the VDMA.

We are very proud to be recognized as an AI Champion in the category of small and medium-sized enterprises by the Ministry of Economics of Baden-Württemberg!

In a joint effort with researchers from the ZEISS Group and the Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, we applied our decentralized approach to carry out anomaly detection in OCT images taken of eyes.

prenode is actively involved in academic lectures at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). Among others, prenode co-CEOs Robin Hirt and Ronny Schüritz are contributing know-how and practical insights to lectures at the Institute of Information Systems and Marketing (IISM) and the Karlsruhe Service Research Institute (KSRI).

With the support of prenode, manufacturing companies can use services based on artificial intelligence (AI) without compromising data protection. Thus predictive maintenance, automatic anomaly detection, or automatic quality control become feasible.

We are proud to announce that our proposal was accepted as part of the innovation contest by the Ministry of Economics BW. Together with WEISSER Group and the Hahn-Schickard Gesellschaft, we are developing a predictive maintenance solution for WEISSER precision turning machines.

In the recently published Proceedings of the 54th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS), prenode’s co-CEO Robin Hirt explored the possibilities of reusing neural nets on distributed data sets.

Our CEO Robin Hirt gave a keynote speech at the Innovation Festival Karlsruhe on the topic of "Data protection and artificial intelligence: Is that even possible?"

We are proud to have won first place at the CyberChampions Award 2020!Our idea convinced the jury in the final so that we succeeded in winning the INIT Innovation Award and a prize of €5000.

In his master’s thesis with the Karlsruhe Service Research Institute (KSRI), prenode team member Michael Jahns explores techniques for overcoming data abundance. He researches how companies can implement machine learning for use with small and sensitive data sets.

We believe that new approaches and technologies explored in academia enable new opportunities in the field of AI and machine learning.

prenode actively contributes know-how on machine learning and AI development in various research projects. Through our position on the advisory boards of two collaborative projects, we can exchange cross-domain knowledge. This enables us to provide expertise on tech topics and learn about the needs and requirements of the involved partners.

prenode is proud to be among the selected projects of the StartUpSecure program. The initiative aims to support research teams that focus on cybersecurity topics. StartUpSecure was launched as part of the national IT security strategy and is led by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
