About
Gradion EdgeAI is a specialized joint venture that combines the technical depth of an Edge AI specialist with the reliability of an established engineering organization.
Who We Are
Gradion EdgeAI was formed through the combination of Gradion (enterprise IT and engineering, part of the NFQ Group) and 100 DAYS (specialized AI consultancy with deep NVIDIA Jetson expertise). This structure is not a compromise -- it is the decisive advantage.
Most Edge AI specialists are small teams with deep expertise but without enterprise infrastructure. Most large engineering organizations have the infrastructure but lack hands-on Edge AI production experience. Gradion EdgeAI operates at the intersection: niche-deep technical expertise, backed by an organization with 600+ engineers.
For clients, this means a senior Edge AI architect leads the project from day one -- with the ability to scale to dedicated engineering teams when the project moves toward production. No vendor switch, no context loss.
What Sets Us Apart
Enterprise Trust
Gradion and the NFQ Group bring 600+ engineers, ISO 27001 certification, and established enterprise relationships. No key-person risk, no two-person consultancy. Contracts, processes, and escalation paths at enterprise level -- backed by a German legal entity.
Prototype-to-Production
The track record: a traffic monitoring system optimized from 50% to 95% detection accuracy, hundreds of units deployed in the field. This is not a lab result -- it is a production-hardened system delivering measurable results in real-world operation.
Vertical Depth
Gradion EdgeAI is not a horizontal "we do everything" consultancy. The deepest expertise lies in vision-based Edge AI for sensor platforms -- traffic monitoring, smart city, industrial inspection, and security. Clients benefit from accumulated domain knowledge, not a learning curve.
Team
Gaylord Aulke / 100 DAYS
Head of Technology
5+ years of dedicated NVIDIA Jetson deployment experience -- from initial hardware assessment through prototype development to production deployment with hundreds of units in the field. Hands-on architecture leadership in every engagement: clients work directly with the expert who has done the work, not a sales team that hands off to junior engineers.
Enterprise Backbone: Gradion and NFQ Group
Behind Gradion EdgeAI stands the NFQ Group -- with over 600 engineers, global delivery capacity, and an established presence in the European enterprise market. This foundation gives clients the assurance they need for technology-critical projects.
NVIDIA Jetson Ecosystem
Gradion EdgeAI operates within the NVIDIA Jetson ecosystem: hands-on experience with the complete Jetson platform, Deepstream inference pipelines, TensorRT model optimization, and the surrounding toolchain. Technical depth is demonstrated through production deployments -- a leading traffic monitoring system on Jetson hardware with hundreds of deployed units is more credible than any partner logo.
