Aixia Agrees on Strategic AI Cooperation with 3stepIT for AI-Based Quality Assessment of IT Equipment
Mölndal April 17, 2024
Aixia is pleased to announce the launch of a groundbreaking AI solution for the quality assessment of used IT devices, developed in collaboration with 3stepIT, a leading player in circular technology solutions. This innovative solution, which will be put into production in Sweden in May, represents a significant advance in sustainable management of IT equipment.
The solution is based on Aixia's proprietary software, AiQu, and has been meticulously trained by experts from both Aixia and 3stepIT over 18 months using data from over 35,000 devices. It utilizes advanced artificial intelligence to provide unbiased and accurate evaluations of used laptops. The implementation is the first in a larger rollout and marks the launch of AI-based solutions at 3stepIT's centers. The goal is a complete implementation by the end of the year at all 3stepIT's operational facilities for automated lifecycle management of devices and IT equipment to the secondary market.
This collaboration underscores Aixia's commitment to improving sustainability within the tech industry by supporting circular economy methods. The AI tool not only identifies specific damages but also assesses the overall wear and tear, providing a standardized quality assessment that offers businesses a reliable assessment and valuation of the device's condition.
"Our partnership with 3stepIT is based on a shared vision of reducing e-waste and promoting the reuse of IT equipment," says Mattias Bergkvist, CEO of Aixia. "Solutions like this that manage quality will transform the way companies handle automated production."
Jakob Lagander, CEO of 3stepIT, says, “By integrating Aixia's AI expertise with our circular technology model, we can offer even greater value to our customers, ensuring that devices have a longer and more sustainable lifecycle. This is an important step towards more sustainable IT management globally.”
