1 hour 3 minutes

In our latest episode of the AI in Manufacturing Podcast, I sat down with Zeeshan Zia, co-founder and CEO of Retrocausal, to dive deep into how AI co-pilots are transforming the manufacturing sector. Here are three key takeaways:

1️⃣ Labor Challenges Meet Smart Solutions

Manufacturers face critical labor shortages, resulting in significant costs. Zeeshan shared how AI-powered Assembly Co-Pilots are slashing error rates and scrap costs by up to 90% while empowering workers with real-time guidance.

2️⃣ Merging Lean Principles with AI

Traditional lean manufacturing focuses on quality, productivity, and safety. RetroCausal’s tools like Kaizen Co-Pilot and Ergo Co-Pilot seamlessly integrate lean methodologies with advanced AI, accelerating time studies and ergonomic assessments in hours instead of weeks.

3️⃣ Scalability Across Diverse Workflows

From discrete manufacturing to medical devices, AI co-pilots are not just for single processes—they scale efficiently across multiple sites, even in highly regulated industries.
