Tacit

Tacit delivers the first platform to accelerate tacit knowledge transfer, discovery and access - superpowering people in complex industrial operations. As valuable front‐line employees leave the workforce, loss of “tacit knowledge,” will cost industrial enterprises materially in productivity losses, expense leverage as well as new revenue opportunities due to capacity limitations. Over 85% of baby boomers are projected to retire within the next five years. Tacit enables industrial workers with “superpowers” through a compelling UX and uses AI technologies (Voice Recognition, Natural Language Understanding, Computer Vision). Tacit supports iOS/Android/Windows smartphones and tablets, head-worn wearable devices (RealWear HMT-1, others), Samsung Gear S-3 watch and Apple Watch. Enabling Cross-device compatibility. TacitHub is an open ecosystem of third-party solutions creating value by bringing disparate back-end & front-end solutions together, then provide unique integrations so that disparate solutions actually talk to each other. Initial target markets encompass verticals where loss of tacit knowledge poses significant risk, including: Oil & Gas, Power & Utilities, Manufacturing, Transportation, Telecom Field Service and Construction.
