## Industry Pages

### Energy and Electric Power
HopAI applies AI to smart metering, loss detection, predictive maintenance of assets, load forecasting, field-team dispatch, quality and continuity analysis, operational assistants and regulatory-process automation. The company is executing an ANEEL-regulated R&D project with machine learning on smart-metering data.

For electric-power distributors, HopAI offers a co-developed intelligent-inspection prioritization solution. It converts smart-metering, events, registration and inspection-history data into explainable risk scores and regional inspection rankings, helping teams focus field capacity on the most relevant orders. The solution is adapted to each distributor's data, operation and governance context; it does not promise a fixed accuracy, timeline, client result or named-product deployment.

### Manufacturing and Industry
HopAI applies AI to production-mix optimization, PCP planning and sequencing, predictive maintenance, intelligent material reclassification, anomaly detection, demand forecasting and technical assistants. Results include 100% feasibility in material reclassification and industrial mix optimization with direct EBITDA impact.

### Textile and Apparel
HopAI applies AI to demand forecasting by SKU, size, color and channel; new-product forecasting; optimal store inventory, purchase and replenishment planning; store allocation; and collection-behavior forecasting.

### Automotive
HopAI applies AI to production sequencing, component demand forecasting, quality-anomaly detection, predictive maintenance, intelligent material reclassification, line-feeding optimization and technical assistance. Automotive applications are informed by HopAI's published industrial work in production and material decision-making.

### Aviation Operations, Fleet and MRO
HopAI applies AI to flight-operation planning, fleet maintenance, aircraft allocation between routes and bases, MRO parts inventory, operational-reliability patterns and scenario simulation. The company has a published aviation case on AI-based aircraft distribution and maintenance planning. Passenger experience, customer service and commercial personalization are outside this operational scope.

### Healthcare
HopAI applies AI to healthcare-cost forecasting, capacity planning, administrative-flow prioritization, anomaly detection, management assistants and model governance. The company has a published healthcare cost-prediction case for medical guides.
