AI/ML Engineers and Development Services

Developing effective AI models is more than just a one-step process. Experienced AI development engineers go beyond simply programming; they understand the nuances of various machine learning algorithms and can select the best fit for a specific task. Training data is the fuel for AI, and these engineers ensure the data is high-quality and free from biases that could skew the model's results.

The power of AI is undeniable, but it cannot function in a vacuum. AI engineers are the human bridge between raw data and intelligent AI solutions. By acknowledging the human factor and employing a rigorous approach to data selection and analysis, we can ensure AI remains a tool for progress. Two examples of effective AI building and implementation.

Projects That Prove The Future of AI is Team-Centered
CounteR - Anti-radicalization Tool
Projects That Prove The Future of AI is Team-Centered

ASSIST Software has already implemented AI successfully in projects such as CounteR. Funded by the European Commission's H2020 program, CounteR brings together 19 organizations from 11 EU member states, including SMEs, NGOs, and research institutions, alongside law enforcement agencies, such as SPP, Police of Latvia, Judiciary Police Portugal, and others, Their shared goal is to combat radicalization and prevent terrorist attacks. We lead the project and are pivotal in developing a powerful AI-powered tool.

CounteR utilizes state-of-the-art technologies and in-depth knowledge of radicalization psychology to create a comprehensive solution for LEAs. The platform gathers data from a wide range of online and offline sources, including public data and expert insights. This extensive data pool allows CounteR to identify potential "hotspots" of radicalization within communities.

Our expertise in information technology and data analysis is best demonstrated when integrating data from diverse sources into a unified platform that facilitates in-depth analysis and predictive modeling. LEAs can then understand the "when, where, and why" of radicalization within communities, empowering them to implement preventative programs and counter-narratives to combat extremism at its root.

As an acknowledgment of this teamwork, we have been invited to speak at the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) organized conference called "Cybersecurity and Military Artificial Intelligence: New Legal Challenges and Resilience Perspectives" on the 26th of January. The conference attracted numerous experts from national institutions, academic representatives from Romania, the Republic of Moldova, and Ukraine, and guests from various software development companies.

PARS - Autonomous Drone Technology

ASSIST Software is proud to be a part of the PARS project, a groundbreaking initiative funded by the European Regional Development Fund. This collaborative effort, alongside researchers from Ștefan cel Mare University of Suceava, aims to develop a revolutionary solution for public authorities facing critical situations.

Imagine a future where rapid response times and optimal resource allocation become the norm during emergencies. PARS envisions an "Autonomous Recognition and Support Platform" that makes this a reality.

These drones act as intelligent agents, capable of undertaking various missions – from reconnaissance and surveillance to issuing alerts and tracking targets. Their ability to adapt and respond dynamically to real-time situations is the key.

PARS breaks new ground by separating the Image Processing module from the ML Swarm Agent. This allows us to showcase the potential of training AI actors to recognize real-world entities using synthetic data. This approach can revolutionize object detection algorithms and pave the way for even more sophisticated applications.

Focus on choosing the right people for the job.
Projects That Prove The Future of AI is Team-Centered

The future is data-driven, and AI is the key to unlocking its potential while considering global sustainability objectives such as energy efficiency. To promote AI development and to ensure that software developers understand this phenomenon and are trained to respond, the company often organizes AI workshops, the most recent being AI/ML Days – an event dedicated exclusively to software engineers who haven't had the chance to explore the depths of machine learning and AI model training and who could potentially integrate AI in their projects or work.

ASSIST Academy has held several informal discussions for students to expand their views and knowledge on the subject. The company firmly believes that caring for the future of technology means elevating businesses and developers alike.

From responsible development and profound expertise to a focus on impactful solutions and knowledge sharing, ASSIST Software offers a comprehensive AI development partnership. We don't just build AI; we build the future together. Let's unlock the potential of AI for your business – contact us today.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is ASSIST Software's development process?  

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) we employ defines the following stages for a software project. Our SDLC phases include planning, requirement gathering, product design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance.

2. What software development methodology does ASSIST Software use?  

ASSIST Software primarily leverages Agile principles for flexibility and adaptability. This means we break down projects into smaller, manageable sprints, allowing continuous feedback and iteration throughout the development cycle. We also incorporate elements from other methodologies to increase efficiency as needed. For example, we use Scrum for project roles and collaboration, and Kanban boards to see workflow and manage tasks. As per the Waterfall approach, we emphasize precise planning and documentation during the initial stages.

3. I'm considering a custom application. Should I focus on a desktop, mobile or web app?  

We can offer software consultancy services to determine the type of software you need based on your specific requirements. Please explore what type of app development would suit your custom build product.   

  • A web application runs on a web browser and is accessible from any device with an internet connection. (e.g., online store, social media platform)   
  • Mobile app developers design applications mainly for smartphones and tablets, such as games and productivity tools. However, they can be extended to other devices, such as smartwatches.    
  • Desktop applications are installed directly on a computer (e.g., photo editing software, word processors).   
  • Enterprise software manages complex business functions within an organization (e.g., Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)).

4. My software product is complex. Are you familiar with the Scaled Agile methodology?

We have been in the software engineering industry for 30 years. During this time, we have worked on bespoke software that needed creative thinking, innovation, and customized solutions. 

Scaled Agile refers to frameworks and practices that help large organizations adopt Agile methodologies. Traditional Agile is designed for small, self-organizing teams. Scaled Agile addresses the challenges of implementing Agile across multiple teams working on complex projects.  

SAFe provides a structured approach for aligning teams, coordinating work, and delivering value at scale. It focuses on collaboration, communication, and continuous delivery for optimal custom software development services. 

5. How do I choose the best collaboration model with ASSIST Software?  

We offer flexible models. Think about your project and see which models would be right for you.   

  • Dedicated Team: Ideal for complex, long-term projects requiring high continuity and collaboration.   
  • Team Augmentation: Perfect for short-term projects or existing teams needing additional expertise.   
  • Project-Based Model: Best for well-defined projects with clear deliverables and a fixed budget.   

Contact us to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each model.
