- Searis’ Clarify is a software-as-a-service data collection and analysis platform that combines streaming data, AI/ML tools and observations from people working in the operation. It can connect to SCADA, IoT devices, Industry 4.0 systems, software and other data sources; it organises raw data, metadata and context for human and machine analysis.
- The article argues that relying only on external experts or retrospective analytics misses context from workers closest to the process. Clarify lets field staff add real-time notes to data; the platform can combine those records to help teams recognise recurring situations, share operational knowledge and make small process changes. The intended use is sustainability improvement across economic, environmental and social dimensions.
- The company says Clarify is used by companies in agriculture, aquaculture, manufacturing and maritime industries. Other target markets named include food production, energy, natural resources, process industries and transportation. The article identifies wider use of IoT, mobile/cloud computing, Industry 4.0 and AI as demand drivers; those statements are market outlook, not quantified adoption evidence.
