About
Plotlogic builds AI-driven sensors for mining sites. Their hardware scans rocks and ore in open-pit and underground mines and uses computer vision plus hyperspectral imaging to characterise the material in under 15 minutes, where traditional lab-based methods can take an hour or more. The pitch to mining operators is straightforward: faster decisions about what to dig, what to leave, and what to send to the mill, which means higher yield, less dilution, and less waste. The company claims more than 95 percent system availability across deployments. Brisbane-headquartered, founded in 2017 by Andrew Job. Named to CB Insights' AI 100 list in 2023. Mining is one of the harder industries to actually deploy AI in: the environments are punishing, the operators are conservative, and the value has to be proven in dollars per tonne. Plotlogic is one of the few Australian AI companies with field-deployed hardware running in commercial mines on multiple continents.
