How Ubiqedge Is Giving Old Industrial Machines An AIoT Upgrade
Nobody on a factory floor wakes up wanting AI, Internet of Things (IoT) systems or a smarter dashboard. Their job…
Ubiqedge, a Mumbai-based startup founded in 2024, is revolutionizing industrial IoT by giving old machines an AIoT upgrade. The company's mission is to help factories keep their machines running smoothly, monitor metrics like groundwater extraction and air quality, and comply with regulatory requirements. Ubiqedge's founders, Visat Patel, Archit Khandelwal, Akhilesh Thorat, and Hetvi Shah, recognized that existing OEMs lacked the expertise in IoT, AI, and software to meet these demands.
To address the issue, Ubiqedge developed a full-stack AIoT platform consisting of hardware and software layers. Their hardware device, KLEON, integrates with industrial equipment to capture data, while SAMASTH, the software layer, converts this raw information into a usable operating and compliance system. Ubiqedge's distribution strategy involves selling directly to OEMs and system integrators, who then bundle the technology with their existing equipment.
This plug-and-play approach enables factories to upgrade their legacy machinery without disrupting operations. With their AI-driven configuration layer, Ubiqedge aims to make its platform more adaptable for OEMs. So far, Ubiqedge has successfully catered to four use cases: smart water management, solar photovoltaic remote monitoring and control, smart concrete management, and air-quality monitoring.
