TiHive is reshaping quality and process inspection with its unique Terahertz-AI see-through solution that inspects all production in real-time. „TiHive addresses this with terahertz-AI products and end-to-end support that integrate into existing processes and remain engaged until KPIs are achieved“, said Hani Sherry, Founder & CEO of TiHive. The systems are integrated directly on production lines and connected to the machines and to the cloud, measuring the quality and the process stability of thousands of products every minute.

Its technology relies on proprietary semiconductor chips capable of generating and detecting terahertz waves at very high speed, paired with advanced THz optics and an AI-powered software platform. By integrating terahertz technology on CMOS chips, the company enables miniaturization, scalable mass production, low energy consumption, and high-speed performance. A multi-camera, multi-source systems designed to run at high speed in harsh industrial environments, enabling 100 percent inline, non-destructive inspection of every product, has already commercialized. After proving itself in absorbent hygiene industry, where several leaders has adopted the systems. New target markets are:

  • Textiles and leather: ensuring fiber and material quality, from technical fabrics to luxury goods.
  • Recycling: detecting impurities and analyzing raw materials-purity, essential for reuse.
  • Agriculture: quality inspection for seeds and crops during growth and after harvest.
  • Aerospace & Space: non-destructive verification of critical materials on earth or in Orbit.

„TiHive’s silicon and AI platform technology can easily adapt to diverse non-destructive inspection needs and quickly deliver value across industries, from hygiene and textiles to agriculture and aerospace. Our deep-tech is also opening space applications, including situational awareness (SSA), debris detection, and in the future, fast communications (6G), thanks to its form factor, energy efficiency and versatility“, added Carlos Prada Co-founder and CIO of TiHive. TiHive’s business model is built on an annual subscription that bundles equipment access with AI-powered analytics, monitoring services, and operational support.
