New GenAI Platform Is Designed To Speed Decision-Making in Emergencies

The new platform is a collaborative effort between three companies.

A new generative AI platform is aimed at helping with rapid decision-making in emergency scenarios such as natural disasters, health care during a crisis like a pandemic, and urban environmental challenges like the recent onset of brush fires in the Northeast.

The platform springs from a partnership between three companies: Vantiq, IronYun, and Syllego and contains elements of each company’s offerings.

Vantiq lends its real-time intelligent platform to the new GenAI solution. With real-time intelligence, the platform can “integrate diverse data streams from IoT sensors, AL analytics, and other sources, enabling immediate, autonomous decision-making,” according to a news release.

A demo on Vantiq’s site shows the software in use in several ways -- alerting someone to evacuate their home under threat of a flood, at work in a “smart city” alerting authorities that a crash has happened at a specific intersection and notifying nursing staff about a patient’s declining ventilator status.

IronYun’s part of the new platform is its Vaidio Vision AI which offers GenAI-powered video analytics. IronYun’s solution is used for traffic management, urban security, and industrial safety, according to a news release.

Syllego, which the company describes itself as building “intelligent infrastructures to elevate urban environments into smarter, more efficient cities,” leant its system integration expertise to this collaboration.

This new GenAI platform is built to handle “critical operational needs” like managing natural disasters, optimizing health care systems during a major crisis, and to aid in decision-making for industries operating in “high-pressure” environments, according to a news release.

“Imagine a system that not only predicts a city-wide flood but reroutes traffic, alerts emergency responders and ensures resources are in place — all before the first drop hits the ground,” said Marty Sprinzen, co-founder and CEO of Vantiq, in a news release. “When we say this partnership and solution brings a new era of intelligent systems to life, we mean it. We are enabling a society where technology doesn't just monitor — it acts.”
