In computer vision and predictive analytics, Buzz Solutions has emerged as an industry leader with an established track record of working with major power utilities globally for T&D infrastructure inspections and substation security. 

Buzz Solutions became a clear choice for DRIFT because of the platform’s ease and speed of integration. Buzz Solutions’ highly flexible platform integrated seamlessly with DRIFT’s pre-established workflow requirements.
