Industrial AI SuitePlatform

Edge software suite for packaging, deploying, running and monitoring AI models on the factory floor, comprising an AI SDK, AI Inference Server and AI Asset Manager running on Siemens Industrial Edge and NVIDIA-accelerated industrial PCs.

Rapidminer AI StudioPlatform

Visual drag-and-drop and notebook-based platform in the Rapidminer portfolio for building, training and explaining machine learning and generative AI models, with AutoML tooling and deployment to cloud, on-premises or edge infrastructure.

Rapidminer Graph StudioPlatform

Enterprise knowledge-graph platform in the Rapidminer portfolio, built on open W3C standards (RDF, SPARQL, OWL, SHACL), that federates cross-domain data into a governed semantic layer and gives AI agents a queryable, traceable context for grounded answers.

Weights & Biases

Platform

W&B ModelsPlatform

Experiment tracking for model training runs, recording hyperparameters, metrics and artifacts so runs can be compared, swept and reproduced.

W&B RegistryPlatform

Curated central repository providing versioning, aliases, lineage tracking and governance for models and datasets across the ML lifecycle.

W&B Serverless RLPlatform

Managed reinforcement-learning fine-tuning service for LLMs on CoreWeave's managed GPU cluster, billed per-token for rollouts with automatic scale-to-zero.

W&B Serverless SFTPlatform
