Poka, an IFS company, has announced it is adding four new AI capabilities to its Connected Worker platform. The new AI features are designed to drive new workforce efficiencies and performance optimization by empowering workers on the shop floor with capabilities and insights to work better, safer, and with greater accuracy and confidence than ever before.
This major tech innovation within the Poka Connected Worker platform follows the recent announcement that the Poka app is fully available for Apple Vision Pro via the Apple App store. It is designed to empower frontline workers operating in factory settings by allowing them to work smarter, not harder in four key areas:
- AI-powered content transformation: The ability to convert documents in a matter of minutes into Digital Work Instructions from lengthy, written standard operating procedures, reducing deployment times, and allowing for faster time to value.
- AI-powered search: Optimizes intelligent search capabilities that not only grasps their inquirer's intent, but also adapts to human nuances including typos or vague terms.
- Intelligent Multilingual Transcription: Unlocks global collaboration as it breaks down global language barriers, automatically translate audios, and encourages worker inclusion.
- AI-powered Text Enhancement: Smooths grammar and improves vocabulary and punctuation to both save time and ensure readability.
“Given the current industry labor challenges to attract, train, retain, upskill, and capture retiring knowledge, connected worker platforms are becoming essential across the entire manufacturing industry. At Poka, staying at the cutting edge of AI integration is not just about keeping up with competitors, but about our goal of helping our customers set new standards for operational excellence and worker empowerment,” said Antoine Bisson, CTO of Poka.
"We believe humans will remain indispensable in manufacturing due to their decision-making, creativity, and adaptability. We believe it’s our job to provide them with the tools and training for humans to work alongside and be augmented by AI to ensure a productive synergy between human ingenuity and machine efficiency.”Poka provides manufacturers with tools across knowledge management, training and skills management, communication, forms and checklists, issues management and analytics that help boost worker productivity in one single connected worker platform.
