Alphamoon helped with projects that involved the classification of documents and broad data analysis. The solution was tailor-made for the customer needs and involved running 3 simultaneous PoCs with various teams in remote locations. The main goal for this project was to create software, that using Artificial Intelligence would handle client’s processes and fully automate them.

Besides this, there were a few measurable KPIs such as speed, accuracy, and efficiency that the Alphamoon had to achieve. AI software delivered by Alphamoon was based on Natural Language Processing and Computer Vision. In the end they deliver the solution as a Docker for easy implementation.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

The team was composed of a team of four experienced machine learning engineers guided by Alphamoon’s Chief Technology Officer. There was also a Business Development Manager who was a main point of contact and was coordinating a project.

The most impressive about Alphamoon is that they are professionals in what they do. Their knowledge about AI and ML is extraordinary, so the Alphamoon’s team was finding new and creative solutions for all problems in a project (i.e. IT limits stemming from legacy teechnology in the bank and security limitations).

They were very flexible and easy to work with. We have recommended them for the annual startup reward granted by the President of the Republic of Poland which they eventually won.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

In terms of technology all required actions were performed top notch. As an accelerator with worked with Alphamoon on business case development and together worked out new improved business model that is already being deployed.

We have selected Alphamoon since they were recommended to us. We have engaged with the team and discussed the project and problem and they understood immediately our challenge, as some of their team members had before experience with analogous problems.

Describe the project in detail.

Once we've agreed on the project's scope, Alphamoon started a series of experiments while our team has provided the necessary data and software. We had regular discussions and reviews of the experimentation results.

Alphamoon has always discussed upfront different methods and approaches before starting the experimentation with clear goals and outcomes. During the project execution, we have explored various AI/ML methods for data modeling, model prediction, and try different practical approaches only based on the results from experiments.

Within a few months, we have managed to run a lot of experiments and try various different approaches. All was done with a great deal of speed and flexibility. All resulted in the improved performance of the model in the upper single-digit range. Work done by Alpamoon was instrumental for us working with our early adopter's customers and officially launching this new product to the market

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The Alphamoon team was very flexible. We have been very impressed by the speed of how quickly they were able to understand very complex domain-specific concepts.
