AFI launches AI tool

UK based AFI Rentals has launched an artificial intelligence tool called SitesurvAI which helps customers select appropriate powered access equipment by analysing site photographs.

The system, developed by the company's information technology team, allows users to upload images of their work site. The artificial intelligence then analyses the environment and suggests suitable work platforms for the application.

Once the system has identified suitable equipment, users can request a quote directly through AFI's website, the technology eliminates manual equipment selection processes while ensuring machines match specific site requirements.

Information technology director Chris Jowett said: "Our AI assistant is a game changer for the powered access industry. It simplifies the hire process by using smart image analysis to identify the exact machine required for the job. By making it freely available for use, we’re ensuring that businesses across the sector can benefit, improving accessibility and efficiency for everyone."
