Research & Development · Industrial AI
NexDM.ai is an Italian Research and Development startup specialized in the creation of AI applications for the industrial world.
We develop solutions for PLCs, HMIs, SCADA, robots, Computer Vision, Edge AI, Digital Twins and Machine Learning, turning research and technical expertise into practical applications.
NexDM.ai was created at the intersection of industrial automation, robotics and Artificial Intelligence. It is not based on a single application: it builds an evolving ecosystem of projects, prototypes and solutions.
Our work starts from real challenges involving machines, plants, laboratories and production processes, transforming them into smarter, more accessible and useful digital tools.

NexDM.ai was founded by Eng. Domenico Madeo, Automation/Robotics/AI Trainer, teacher and technical consultant specialising in the integration of industrial automation, robotics, Computer Vision and Artificial Intelligence.
Activities include prototype development, technical demonstrations, advanced training and collaborations with companies, schools, technical institutes, universities and professionals.
View the professional profile →We explore different technologies with one common goal: bringing AI into industrial processes in a practical, safe and understandable way.
Assistants, data analysis, diagnostics and new human-machine interactions integrated into automation systems.
AI applications supporting programming, supervision, vision, learning and human-robot collaboration.
Recognition, quality control, safety, tracking and video analysis for industrial environments.
Local processing on industrial devices and NVIDIA Jetson platforms for fast applications independent of the cloud.
Digital models, simulation, virtual commissioning and connections between physical behaviour and process data.
Experimentation with models and pipelines for classification, prediction, optimisation and predictive maintenance.
Each project validates a technology and turns it into a demonstrable, integrable solution ready to evolve.
Industrial AI Assistant
A voice and text AI assistant for machines, plants and training environments. It can interpret requests, consult technical information, read process states and support operators and technicians.
Discover Michai →Computer Vision applications for safety, PPE, quality control, recognition and monitoring.
AI prototypes on edge systems and NVIDIA Jetson for local processing in industrial environments.
Integration of simulation, PLCs, digital models and intelligent process analysis.

Michai is the AI assistant developed by NexDM.ai for industrial automation. It does not replace NexDM.ai: today it represents its most mature and recognisable project.
It can be configured as a general assistant or specialised for a specific machine, line, technology or training activity.
NexDM.ai technologies can be adapted to different production, educational and experimental contexts.
More natural access to states, parameters, procedures and technical documentation.
Interpretation of alarms and anomalies with guided checks.
Image analysis for inspections, recognition and operational monitoring.
Data and AI models supporting productivity, energy use and maintenance.
NexDM.ai develops technical training for companies, schools, technical institutes, universities and academies, connecting theory, laboratory work and real applications.
We collaborate with companies, system integrators, machine builders, training organisations and universities to develop proofs of concept, demonstrators, experiments and innovation programmes.
