We Develop Real-Life Solutions

While there are many researchers, institutions and companies working on artificial intelligence and big data topics all around the world, it is still not easy to come up with AI solutions that work in real life conditions. In theory, many products that give very good results in research environments or labs are far below the expected performance in the field. As DataBoss, our key ability is that we can produce AI based solutions that solve real life problems.

From Decision Support Systems to Decision-Making Systems

Most of our solutions target very challenging problems due to factors such as the density, complexity or poor quality of the inputs. On the other hand, as a result of the increasing expectations about Artificial Intelligence, we need to produce solutions that fully meet customer needs in the sense of making up the right decision on time, rather than just supporting the decision making process. With our solutions, we provide our customers with most reliable results at decision level despite all the  challenges.
