The submission presents a discrepancy between a professional-sounding project description and highly questionable data fields. While the described solution (industrial predictive maintenance) addresses a real problem, the claims of 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people have used my product' are demonstrably false for a niche B2B tool. No verifiable web presence exists for 'Aitheon Ltd' in Cork or the domain 'aitheon.ie', and the email format suggests a student or test submission. The lack of evidence and unrealistic claims severely impact the score.

Description
Aitheon is an Irish engineering company that designs and deploys AI-driven predictive maintenance for mission-critical industrial assets. We combine condition monitoring, statistical modelling, and domain expertise to reduce unplanned downtime, extend asset life, and raise OEE—without disrupting production. What we deliver • End-to-end systems: sensors, edge gateways, data pipelines, and dashboards. • Anomaly detection on historical data (InfluxDB) with trend-aware features. • Condition-based and predictive work orders via CMMS integration (IBM Maximo, SAP PM, PEMAC). • Vendor-agnostic coverage: CNC machines, industrial robots, lasers, pumps, compressors, fans, HVAC, and rotating equipment. • Maritime options for merchant fleets and shore facilities. How we work • Rapid pilots with measurable KPIs (downtime, MTBF/MTTR, energy, yield). • Clean implementation—minimal footprint, clear documentation, and handover. • Security-first data architecture and GxP-friendly practices for regulated environments. Sectors served Pharma & MedTech, Food & Beverage, Advanced Manufacturing, Maritime & Ports, Energy & Utilities. Headquartered in Cork, Ireland, Aitheon partners with maintenance and operations teams to turn plant data into reliable, actionable decisions.
