"This has been good for AFRY because then AFRY's customer don't need to pay for redrawing and with that conversion is so much easier to start when existing diagrams are in intelligent form already!"

Verified Client

"A newly assigned team member, with just one month on the job, successfully extracted approximately 5,000 tags from around 150 P&IDs with 99% accuracy. Compared to traditional manual methods, this led to a 30–40% reduction in workload."

Verified Client

"Over the course of one year using Model Broker, there was a case where work time for a single job was reduced from 250 hours to 50 hours. In a job involving around 100 P&IDs and 3,000 instruments, the highlight feature on the Model Broker screen was especially praised for reducing confirmation workload. We're going to expand the use of Model Broker to more jobs going forward."
