L IS FOR LOGISTICS


Explore how software keep things moving

Have you ever found a needle in a haystack? Impossible, you say? Well, when it comes to logistics, we do that every day!


Are the things you use every day so commonplace that you don't even notice them anymore? What about a dishwasher or your washing machine? You probably only notice them when they stop working!

Manufacturers of these devices face the same internal logistics challenge.

For example, a washing machine consists of thousands of individual parts. For it to be assembled, each part must be in the right place on the production line at the right time. If even one part is missing, production could come to a standstill.

Preventing this is one of our core competencies. With our AI-based software, we ensure that the flow of materials in the factory runs smoothly — from delivery to internal transport. Specifically, this means:

Preventing this is one of our core competencies. With our AI-based software, we ensure that the flow of materials in the factory runs smoothly — from delivery to internal transport. Specifically, this means:

  • Planning external deliveries: We allocate truck time slots so that ramps, personnel, and traffic areas are utilized optimally. If delays occur, the AI calculates a new handling plan within seconds.
  • Optimizing internal transport: Material arrives on time from the warehouse to the conveyor belt; distances remain short; and empty runs are avoided. Self-learning algorithms recognize patterns and prevent bottlenecks before they occur.
Good logistics is like a washing machine. It's there. It works. In the best-case, you don't even notice it.

L IS ALSO FOR LARGE LANGUAGE MODELS

These days, ChatGPT and similar tools have become an integral part of our daily lives, both personal and professional. This is also true for INFORM.

Whether we’re writing code or drafting texts, AI supports our work. If you’d like to learn more about us, you can ask our chatbot, Ally, anything you’ve always wanted to know on our homepage.

Our applications are highly complex beneath the surface. That is precisely why they must be as intuitive as possible to operate. Language makes them more accessible and lowers the barriers to entry.

At the same time, we are developing AI agents—modules that can perceive and process states, prepare decisions, initiate actions, and learn from feedback. However, one thing remains unchanged: responsibility lies with humans. AI agents are meant to provide support, not make automated decisions.
