In the winter season that has started, Fluent has signed a cooperation agreement with the Tampere-based technology company ScanwAi.
Fluent offers an operational management system for the maintenance of roads, streets and sports facilities as well as asset management, while ScanwAi offers digital solutions such as videography and artificial intelligence videography, for infrastructure maintenance and monitoring.
With the new cooperation agreement, municipalities, cities and contractors now get all the necessary tools to manage maintenance processes through the same operator.
“The requirement for the verification of maintenance actions by means of photo- and videography has become more common in both city and ely contracts recently. We can now also supply our customers with ScanwAi video imaging solutions, with which cities, municipalities and contractors can record their actions”, says Mikko Hassinen, Fluent’s Chief Commercial Officer.
Using ScanwAi’s artificial intelligence video recording, it is also possible to automate observations: the system automatically detects, for example, potholes and snowy traffic signs on the road, from which the necessary follow-up measures can be derived. ScanwAi’s video imaging system is already in use in several different projects around Finland, and artificial intelligence video recording is also predicted to increase in the future.
“ScanwAi is a new, agile startup with concrete experience in contracts, and whose staff has a customer-oriented way of thinking. The cooperation has already started very promisingly”, sums up Mikko Hassinen.
