America’s Situation

America is attempting to rapidly onshore manufacturing. However, many factories still rely on pen-and-paper processes, which hinder factory throughput, hide inefficiencies, and create unpredictable costs. While David was an aerospace manufacturing engineer, he uncovered missing compliance data hidden due to a data silo. It forced them to shut down the factory for a week until they fully resolved the issue. Oh… and this was in a state-of-the-art facility! The problem is that each factory is unique, but software solutions are one-size-fits all.

Enter Maive

Maive is the first AI-native manufacturing execution system (MES). They are starting with automating aerospace compliance paperwork for assemblers. Using a camera and AI, Maive detects process steps and tracks tool usage, boosting production by eliminating manual data entry and reducing compliance risks. Beyond paperwork, Maive will empower factory operators and industrial engineers—who best understand their firm’s unique needs—to customize their factory’s software without coding. Maive is modernizing domestic production and paving the way for the onshoring of manufacturing.
