# Making physical AI automation accessible.

The platform for building physical AI applications, on your own hardware. Connect cameras, sensors and machines to AI, and turn what it sees into real-world action.

## Trusted by manufacturers and partners across Thailand

In production since March 2021.

## Most AI stops at a prediction. Nara acts on it.

Nara reads cameras and sensors, decides with AI and rules, and drives real equipment: a reject signal to a PLC, a gate, a robot, an alert. Sense, decide and act happen in one system, on your own hardware.

## Sense. Decide. Act. All on your own hardware.

- **Sense**: Connect IP and industrial cameras, sensors, PLCs and web services to a Nara flow.
- **Decide**: Bundled or custom AI models, rules, zones, counters and timers decide what happens.
- **Act**: Drive PLCs, tower lights, gates and robots, send alerts and data, and show it all on live dashboards.

## Two options, and neither fits well

Businesses want AI to do real work on the factory floor, in the store and on the street, not just on a screen.

- **Build it yourself**: With developers, or now with LLMs and AI coding agents. Flexible, but a working pilot is far from a reliable system that runs every day. Camera streams, industrial protocols, model performance, safety, access control and maintenance all have to be engineered and owned.
- **Buy a narrow, pre-built app**: A PPE checker, a people counter, a plate reader. Quick to start, but each does one thing in one way. They rarely fit your exact process, they don’t talk to each other, and every new need means another vendor.

## The third way: proven building blocks, on your own hardware

People and AI agents build solutions from proven, tested building blocks. More adaptable than single-purpose apps, more reliable than AI agents alone.

## Three solutions built from the same blocks

Very different deployments, configured rather than coded, from the same Nara building blocks.

- [A shopping mall in Bangkok](https://nabrio.com/customers/shopping-mall-ai-vision.md) — 120+ cameras, 20+ AI capabilities: Multi-camera input, people detection, tracking and zones, ReID, demographics, MQTT to partner systems, dashboards.
- [UBE Group: fertiliser QC](https://nabrio.com/customers/ube-fertiliser-contamination-qc.md) — 455 tonnes inspected every day, since March 2021: Camera input, contamination detection, rules, operator alerts, image and event log.
- [PepsiCo: PPE access gate](https://nabrio.com/customers/pepsico-ppe-access-gate.md) — The gate opens only when PPE is verified: Camera input, PPE detection, if/switch logic, Modbus I/O to the metal detector and gate, alerts, database, dashboard.

## Nara runs it. Reva teaches it your products.

A model trained in Reva deploys to Nara in one step. New images from production go back to Reva to make the model better.

- [Nara](https://nabrio.com/nara.md) — Build and run AI applications: A visual, no-code platform that connects cameras, sensors and machines to AI and turns what it sees into action, in real time on your own hardware.
- [Reva](https://nabrio.com/reva.md) — Prepare data and train AI models: Your local, private ML lab. Label, train, export and manage datasets and models, all without code.

## Built for the places where work happens

- [Manufacturing](https://nabrio.com/industries/manufacturing.md) — Visual quality inspection · Foreign object detection · Item and pallet counting: Inspect every item, count everything, keep people safe, and connect the results to the line through PLCs, rejectors, tower lights and robots.
- [Retail](https://nabrio.com/industries/retail.md) — People counting · Heatmaps and dwell time · Visitor demographics: Turn existing cameras in malls, stores and restaurants into one system for visitor analytics, operations and security, processed on-site with privacy in mind.
- [Smart city](https://nabrio.com/industries/smart-city.md) — Traffic monitoring · Traffic violation detection · Licence plate recognition: City and roadside cameras that do more than record: they monitor traffic, detect violations, warn of floods and spot infrastructure problems, with processing at the edge so video does not have to be streamed to a central cloud.
- [Buildings and security](https://nabrio.com/industries/buildings-security.md) — Intrusion detection · Face recognition access control · Fire and smoke detection: Make existing CCTV act like an extra team of guards, and make buildings respond to the people in them, with everything processed on-site.
- [More sectors](https://nabrio.com/industries/more-sectors.md) — Sorting and grading · Fall detection · PPE detection: Sectors with fewer deployments so far, where the same platform applies: agriculture and food production, hospitality, healthcare and elderly care, environment, and transport.

## Use it as a solution, or build your product on it

- [Use it as a solution](https://nabrio.com/industries.md) — Manufacturers, retailers, operators of buildings and cities: Start from built-in nodes, bundled models and project templates, set up your zones, rules and I/O, and run it. A working AI system in days, without code.
- [Build on it](https://nabrio.com/partners.md) — System integrators, solution builders, OEMs, in-house teams: Build your own applications and products on Nara and Reva, then package, resell and support them across many customers or sites, co-branded “Powered by Nabrio”.

## AI agents build on proven blocks

Agents are far more dependable when they assemble tested building blocks than when they write a whole system from scratch.

- **Permission presets** (Upcoming)
- **Per-device policies** (Upcoming)
- **Confirmation before risky actions** (Upcoming)
- **Simulated I/O during tests** (Upcoming)
- **Sandbox, snapshots and rollback** (Upcoming)
- **Audit trail of every agent change** (Upcoming)

Today, Nara offers on-device AI decisions, promptable detection, Python scripting and a full HTTP API with scoped keys for scripts and agents. Coming next, the Nara agent interface (CLI and MCP server) will let AI agents build, validate, deploy and improve flows and dashboards from a plain-language request, using the same validated nodes a person uses.

## The flexibility of building your own, with the reliability of a finished product

- **Physical AI, not just analytics**: Nara doesn’t stop at detecting something. It acts on it: a reject signal to a PLC, a gate opening, a robot picking up a pallet.
- **Local-first and private**: Video and data are processed on your own hardware. Nothing has to leave the site, and systems keep running when the internet is down.
- **Built for performance**: A native C++ application with GPU acceleration and multi-threaded flows, so many camera streams run in parallel on one device.
- **Production-ready building blocks**: Tracking, zone logic, de-duplication, validation, role-based access and error reporting are built into every node.
- **A platform to build on**: Visual flows and dashboards for most work; a Python node, plugins and an HTTP API for the rest.
- **A lower, predictable cost**: No per-call cloud AI fees. You use your own compute, and capacity is licensed with simple slots.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does our data leave the site?

No. Nara and Reva run on your hardware, and images, video and results stay there. Data is sent elsewhere only if you build a flow that sends it. Nabrio’s cloud only handles accounts and licensing.

### Do we need internet?

No. Systems run fully on the local network. Eligible tiers support offline operation with licences locked to the hardware.

### Do we need programmers or data scientists?

No. Flows, dashboards, labelling and training are all done visually. Teams with developers can extend Nara with Python scripts and plugins.

### What hardware do we need?

Start small on an edge device next to the camera, such as a Raspberry Pi or an NVIDIA Jetson, and move up to an industrial PC or GPU server for many cameras. The same flows run on all of them.

### Why not just build it with an LLM or AI agent?

A demo is not a system. Running reliably every day needs stream handling, industrial protocols, GPU management, access control, logging and maintenance. Nabrio has already built and tested all of that, and agents are far more dependable assembling proven blocks.
