AI-native operations for manufacturers

Adaptiv AI helps manufacturers in Nigeria replace paper production logs, spreadsheet stock and manual reports with one connected system covering raw materials, production, finished goods, dispatch and finance. Supervisors record output where it happens, and management sees production against plan without waiting for the monthly pack.

What we hear from manufacturers

  • Daily output is written on paper or posted in a WhatsApp group.

  • Raw material usage and finished goods are reconciled by hand at month-end.

  • Purchase and reorder approvals wait on one person's signature.

  • Machine downtime and maintenance live in a spreadsheet, if anywhere.

What we hear from operators

“Whatever production they meet so they will send to the platform... she collected and put it in... form of Excel and display[ed] it on the PowerPoint during the... monthly performance.”

“There was a time that we... [had] to retrieve a particular batch of product because [there] were production error[s]... we don't know how many store[s] we... supply to.”

Questions

What people ask us

Do we need machine sensors to start?

No. Most manufacturers start with supervisors recording output on a tablet or phone. Sensors can be connected later where they pay for themselves.

Can it work alongside our existing ERP?

Yes. We connect to the ERP or accounting system you already run and fill the gaps around it, such as the production floor, depots and approvals.

What does a first project look like?

One workflow, chosen on a free discovery call, scoped in writing after a free scoping session, and built in weeks on your own data. When it works, we add the next piece.

What size of business do you work with?

Operations-intensive businesses of roughly 10 to 200 staff, where orders, stock and deliveries are real but the systems have not kept up. Low digital maturity is not a problem; it is usually where the biggest gains are.

Start with the workflow that costs you most.

A free discovery call, then a written scope and price band within 48 hours of the scoping session.
