ABI Research’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) market intelligence service horizontally assesses the opportunities created by AI-related technology, linking the hardware and software technology stacks across the entire value chain - from embedded to data center.
AI & Machine Learning Coverage Areas
Our extensive coverage of AI/ML includes data, qualitative trend analysis, forecasts, and benchmark and analysis reports. We consult tech vendors (across the supply chain) and end users on the key technical and business factors that are essential for shaping AI and ML market activity, business models, and GTM strategies. From embedded compute to AI data centers, this includes semiconductor innovations, technologies, and platforms as-a-Service, software licensing, and end applications. We also provide technology implementers with authoritative advisory services on their GTM, accounting for various AI/ML applications and use cases to leverage for streamlined industrial and business processes as AI technology becomes democratized.
Our approach to AI/ML market research is use case-centric and tightly coupled with technology implementation. Aside from verticals with existing AI implementations, such as consumer electronics and robotics, we also track AI/ML deployments in retail, manufacturing, energy, automotive, public safety, and telecommunications. Special attention is dedicated to edge AI solutions.
