IN2 Digital Innovations GmbH

IN2 designs, builds and operates AI-powered web-based and scalable solutions that simplify how businesses and people collect, organise, discover and present digital content. The company covers the full spectrum of application development and provisioning from human-centered-design, user interaction, software development and deployment from its own private cloud. The core technology consists of an in-house AI-based content indexing, analysis, automatic annotation, management and publishing platform for all types of media (photos, videos, documents, audio files), on top of which we build customised solutions for vertical markets such as broadcasting, tourism, events, cultural heritage and education.

IN2 has a strong experience in R&D activities and the transfer of this knowledge to the market. IN2 works closely with top universities and actively shapes European-funded research in the fields of digital content and digital transformation, AI and Big Data.
