What changed
Percepto launched Axion on October 27 as a software-as-a-service platform that can ingest inspection data from supported third-party drones, cameras and sensors, as well as from Percepto's own hardware. The change separates more of the company's analysis software from a requirement to adopt its collection equipment.
The product page lists RGB imagery, radiometric thermal data, video, geographic information and optical gas-imaging video among the supported data types. Percepto says Axion organizes those records around assets, applies specialized analysis models and produces reports reviewed by its inspection experts. CGH has not tested the models or independently measured the claimed accuracy gains.
Available, with important details still missing
Percepto's issuer announcement says Axion is available today and directs prospective customers to request a demonstration. It does not publish a price, standard contract terms, a country-by-country availability list or a complete catalog of compatible drones and sensors. The phrase hardware-agnostic therefore should not be read as support for every device or file format.
The product information says Axion provides GET APIs and customized integration options for enterprise systems. It also describes a language-model assistant for querying inspection history. Those functions may affect where operational data is stored and which users can retrieve it, questions the public pages do not resolve for a specific deployment.
What an evaluation should establish
Teams comparing Axion with an existing inspection workflow should start with a written compatibility matrix and a representative sample of their own data. The pilot should measure import failures, false positives, reviewer overrides and time from collection to an approved finding. Buyers should also confirm hosting location, retention controls, API limits, expert-review scope and how model changes are documented before relying on the platform for maintenance or safety decisions.
