DeepHow bridges skills gap in manufacturing and field service with AI-powered video training
By applying AI to reduce the cost and time associated with video production and management, DeepHow enables companies to create skills training that is rich, easy to consume, multi-lingual, and simple to distribute.
DETROIT, March 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- DeepHow, the AI company that turns know-how into smart, how-to training videos, has officially launched its AI-powered training platform for manufacturers and field-service teams. After extensive pilots and deployment with several Fortune 100 companies, DeepHow is now making its comprehensive training system widely available. Businesses looking to bridge their skills gap can use DeepHow to efficiently capture, manage, and disseminate skills, knowledge and know-how — at a scale unheard of until now.
"This new platform, developed by DeepHow, will help us retain organizational knowledge and accelerate our industry 4.0 initiatives," said Kevin Lemke, VP of strategy for Stanley Black & Decker's innovation group, Stanley X. "Through more efficient training, we will strengthen our production capabilities and increase our responsiveness to customers."
Stanley Black & Decker is a strategic investor in DeepHow and partners with DeepHow's innovative AI platform in its workforce readiness and up-skilling programs.
Video has emerged as the preferred medium for capturing crucial skills such as machine set-up and operation, safety procedures, diagnostics, and maintenance. It is also readily disseminated as training content that can easily be consumed by other team members and trainees on a wide range of devices. But creating and managing engaging video training is expensive, so its use has been limited.
Recent advances in AI, NLP (natural language processing), computer vision, and the knowledge graph are revolutionizing how knowledge is captured, digitized, and organized. DeepHow combines these AI technologies with the latest skills learning theory from psychology to deliver a solution that eliminates the cost and time issues associated with producing training videos, and more importantly improves the effectiveness of learning and know-how transfer.
