Natural Language Understanding, Strategic Decision-Making, Image and
Video Understanding, Anomaly Detection, Recommender Systems, Prediction
Systems and Automated Machine Learning, Kepler by Stradigi AI allows for
the rapid input and layering of said technologies within the platform
for transformative results.
