Deep Intelligence on Venture & Enterprise Strategy
India's manufacturing sector loses $50 billion annually to quality defects, rework, and rejections. Most shops still rely on human inspectors with clipboards. Computer vision + AI agents can cut defects by 80% at one-tenth the cost — but zero players have built for this market.
Every day, thousands of B2B manufacturers lose deals not because their products are inferior, but because they respond to quotes too slowly. The average RFQ response time in manufacturing is 24-72 hours. The winner? Usually whoever quotes first. AI agents can change this.
