Cogna‘s AI Factory builds custom apps that solve specific business problems for utilities, logistics, manufacturing, and infrastructure companies. Customers include global beverage company Tropicana, Caden Gas, the UK’s largest gas distribution network, and Ocado, a technology business focused on e-commerce, fulfillment and logistics in online grocery and distribution industries.
“Instead of configuring pre-built software, our customers describe their processes, and our system builds the tool,” says CEO and founder Ben Peters. “The result is custom applications that integrate with existing systems that can handle specific workflows.”
The key is capturing information from workers about how they do their jobs. Software consultancies like Wipro or Capgemini take over six months to do this kind of stakeholder mapping and charge north of a million dollars, says Peters. The UK-based startup can do the job much faster, at a lower cost, and once the startup’s AI platform is put into play, progressively add more automation, he says.
