What We Do

SwitchOn (Abee Research Labs Private Limited) is a Bengaluru-based AI software company founded in 2017, helping manufacturers eliminate defects through AI-powered visual quality inspection. At the core of SwitchOn's offering is DeepInspect®, a SaaS-based AI visual inspection platform purpose-built for high-speed production environments. DeepInspect automates the detection of visual defects, performs dimensional checks and supports thermal inspection replacing slow, error-prone manual inspection processes and outdated rule-based vision systems. What sets DeepInspect apart is its unique training approach: it requires only ~200 good product images to get started no defect samples needed.

Once live, DeepInspect delivers 99.5% real-world inspection accuracy at throughputs of 1,100+ units per minute, making it viable for even the most demanding production lines. SwitchOn serves manufacturers across Automotive, Pharma, Electronics and FMCG industries, with deployments spanning 50+ plants across India, North America, Europe and Southeast Asia. To date, DeepInspect has inspected over 1 billion products globally, saving thousands of manual inspection hours and supporting customers' zero-defect manufacturing goals.
