Kilsar x TechStars “23

Kilsar offers an AI-driven predictive maintenance software platform for aviation, aerospace, manufacturing, and heavy equipment industries. Kilsar's platform addresses the challenges of high attrition rates among technicians and maintainers, combined with increased demands in passenger and cargo travel, which have led to frequent and costly maintenance mishaps and system downtime, which can often cost airlines and companies between $10,000 to $100,000 per hour. Moreover, our case studies have shown that maintainers waste an average 70% of their daily time manually troubleshooting problems, contributing to significant maintenance delays and supply chain vulnerabilities.

Kilsar's platform revolutionizes maintenance operations by reducing shop turnover time and automating the integration of both legacy and digital processes. By leveraging proprietary deep learning infrastructure and maintainer human-in-the-loop feedback, the platform fuses data from historical flight records, institutional knowledge, and sensor data to provide accurate diagnostics and guided troubleshooting workflows. This results in a reduction of mean-time-to-repair and offers predictive insights for supply chain needs and maintenance recommendations. Key features include custom AI-generated workflows, real-time video-teleconferencing and chat capabilities, and data analytics accessed through a simple conversational query to the AI engine. The platform enhances maintenance capabilities, improves workflow efficiency, reduces operational costs, and increases system readiness and safety.
