Interview with Graeme McNay, CEO of AISUS.
What are the primary performance characteristics that distinguish your solution from competing offerings in your segment?
Graeme McNay: AISUS challenges the idea that access should define inspection. We believe technology should remove the need for personnel exposure, not adapt people to risk. Our approach focuses on delivering high-quality, decision-grade data without operational disruption. Performance is measured not just by speed or cost, but by consistency, simplicity, and the ability to generate reliable insight without complex intervention.
Which technological innovations or features provide your solution with a competitive advantage in industrial applications?
G.M.N: AISUS is built on the belief that data should drive decisions, not just document condition. By combining robotics with AI-driven analysis, we reduce subjectivity and enhance clarity. Our data management platform prioritises meaningful insight through automated interpretation, risk-based ranking, and predictive modelling enabling a shift from reactive inspection to forward planning.
How do your solutions address reliability, durability, and lifecycle performance compared to industry standards?
G.M.N: AISUS design inspection solutions for real-world complexity, not ideal conditions. Reliability comes from consistent data capture in challenging environments. AISUS views lifecycle performance as the ability to understand asset condition over time, by building structured datasets, we support long-term visibility and more confident asset integrity decisions.
What role do efficiency metrics (e.g., energy consumption, throughput, precision) play in differentiating your solution?
G.M.N: Efficiency at AISUS is about removing unnecessary steps from access to analysis. By simplifying execution and accelerating insight, we reduce time, cost, and operational impact. Precision remains central, ensuring that faster delivery enhances, rather than compromises, data quality.
How does your solution integrate with existing systems, platforms, or Industry 4.0 environments (e.g., IoT, automation, data analytics)?
G.M.N: AISUS treats inspection data as part of a wider digital ecosystem. Our platform is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing systems, enabling real-time access and collaboration. This ensures inspection outputs directly support broader data-driven strategies, from maintenance planning to digital asset management.
What customization or scalability options do you offer to meet diverse customer requirements across industries?
G.M.N: We recognise that no two assets are the same. Flexibility is embedded in our thinking. AISUS solutions adapt to different environments, asset types, and project scales supporting anything from individual inspections to full portfolio strategies. Our focus is on aligning with client needs, not applying fixed models.
How do safety, compliance, and certification standards influence your product design and market positioning?
G.M.N: Safety is our starting point, not an added feature.We aim to remove risk entirely by eliminating the need for personnel in hazardous environments. This approach naturally supports compliance while reinforcing our position as a partner focused on prevention, not mitigation.
In what ways do your after-sales services (technical support, maintenance, training) enhance the overall value proposition of your solution?
G.M.N: AISUS believes value comes from how data is used. We support clients in interpreting and applying insights, ensuring inspection results lead to informed action. Our focus is on delivering outcomes helping improve long-term performance, not just providing information.
How do total cost of ownership (TCO) and return on investment (ROI) compare with alternative solutions on the market?
G.M.N: AISUS delivers a strong return on investment by reducing the total cost compared to traditional inspection methods. Cost savings are achieved through reduced downtime, elimination of expensive traditional methods, and decreased reliance on multiple third-party vendors. Predictive maintenance capabilities further reduce unplanned failures and associated costs, delivering long-term financial benefits.
We take a long-term view of cost.
By reducing disruption, simplifying logistics, and enabling predictive planning, AISUS lowers overall asset management costs. The result is stronger ROI through fewer unplanned events and more efficient decision-making.
What feedback from customers or industry use cases best demonstrates the unique strengths of your solution?
G.M.N: AISUS solutions have been successfully deployed across offshore and energy infrastructure projects, where clients have benefited from safer operations, faster inspections, and enhanced data-driven decision-making.
Clients consistently value the clarity and confidence AISUS provides. Our ability to simplify complex inspections and deliver reliable insight supports safer operations and continuity.
”It is rare to work with a service provider that delivers such reliability at every stage of engagement and we greatly value the strong relationship we have built with AISUS. Your work directly supports our operational continunity and safety, and we look forward to continued collaboration.”
