Sama Unveils Multimodal AI Platform to Drive Intelligent Automation Across Industrial Landscapes
SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / June 4, 2025 / Sama, a leading provider of purpose-built, responsible enterprise AI solutions for model training and validation, today announced the launch of Sama Multimodal—a groundbreaking platform designed to accelerate intelligent automation by integrating diverse data types (images, video, text, audio, LiDAR, radar) with human-in-the-loop (HITL) validation. Engineered to address the evolving demands of industrial automation and automation equipment sectors, the solution enhances AI model accuracy, reduces bias, and streamlines deployment across retail, automotive, and manufacturing. Early deployments highlight a 35% boost in model accuracy and a 10% reduction in product returns for a major retail client, underscoring its impact on operational excellence.
Sama Multimodal’s widget-based architecture enables seamless integration of multi-modal data streams and pre-annotated models (open-source, client-generated, or Sama-trained), while strategic HITL validation ensures precision. For automation equipment industries, this means harmonizing sensor data from cameras, LiDAR, and radar—critical for autonomous vehicles and industrial robotics—to build robust environmental perception models. In retail, the platform elevates product discovery and search relevance through unified image, text, and video annotations, driving smarter inventory management and personalized customer interactions.
“Modern AI systems thrive on diverse data, yet many underutilize its full potential,” said Duncan Curtis, SVP of AI Product and Technology at Sama. “Sama Multimodal breaks this barrier by enabling enterprises to leverage multimodal data—from sensor-driven industrial automation workflows to multimedia retail datasets—while embedding human expertise for contextual accuracy. Its flexible design future-proofs AI strategies, allowing seamless scaling from pre-trained models to custom solutions without rebuilding infrastructure.”
The platform’s adaptability extends to emerging applications, such as voice-assisted retail search, vision-enhanced robotics, and real-time behavioral analytics. Backed by SamaHub™ (collaborative workspace) and SamaAssure™ (98% first-batch acceptance rate), Sama Multimodal delivers enterprise-grade quality and scalability for AI-driven operations.
