Working at
IPercept Technology AB

At IPercept we provide AI-based software and services that can best be described as a fitness tracker for complex industrial machines. At the push of a button you can learn about your machines' health, down to micrometer changes for each critical component. You can get insights into what maintenance activities you should apply and when. You can monitor how your machines are operated, how to optimize their utilization and much more. All of this is achieved through a plug-n-play installation - for old machines as well as new - all securely provided without requiring access to any machine controllers or IT-systems. The services reduce maintenance costs, downtime and increase productivity - a solid ROI. IPercept has been around since 2019 but we really started selling commercially early 2021. Our first large industrial customers have gone through their trials and tests and now we need to help them ramp up and accelerate their roll out (in Sweden and abroad) - this is where you come into the picture.
