Based in Santander, Spain, Uktena, founded in 2020, operates as a technology firm specializing in artificial intelligence and mixed reality for the industrial sector. The company has developed an intelligent industrial assistant delivered through a Software as a Service (SaaS) model, designed to streamline and democratize knowledge transfer within industrial settings. Uktena targets a diverse range of clients in industries such as automotive, energy, pharmaceuticals, robotics, and machine tools.
The core of Uktena's offering is a platform that captures the expertise of veteran workers and transforms it into accessible, step-by-step guidance for others. This is achieved by recording tasks, which the system's AI then processes into structured, didactic instructions. The service facilitates hands-free operation for field workers through the use of mixed reality smart glasses, providing real-time data, tutorials, and remote expert assistance. This functionality aims to reduce training periods, preserve practical company knowledge, and enhance operational productivity. The platform can be integrated with existing management software and is accessible on multiple devices, including computers, tablets, and smartphones.
The company was established by CEO Rafael Wanderley, whose background includes experience in telecommunications, gaming, history, and archaeology. Uktena secured $267K in a Seed funding round on February 17, 2023, with participation from investors including Lanzadera, Enisa, and Nero Family. A notable milestone includes a collaboration with Roca Group to implement a proof-of-concept using mixed reality to train their after-sales team on equipment maintenance and assembly.
