Scalable AI and Blockchain Solutions

SKALA stands for scalable AI and blockchain solutions for automation and autonomization in value creation networks. Everything revolves around the synergetic interaction of artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain technology. We create a federated and decentralized (platform) ecosystem for companies for secure and trustworthy process automation and autonomization in production, logistics and supply chain management.

 

Open Source

We develop AI and blockchain components in the form of software modules, AI models, smart contracts and adapters for connecting third-party systems in order to connect processes in production, logistics and supply chain management throughout Germany and Europe and to leverage the decisive potential of digital networking.
