Drishti Technologies

Drishti Technologies was a Mountain View, California company (founded 2016 by Prasad Akella, Krishnendu Chaudhury, and Ashish Gupta) that applied AI-powered computer vision and video analytics to manual assembly lines in manufacturing. Its platform digitized human actions on the production floor to enable time-and-motion studies at scale, quality traceability, and continuous improvement, with products including Drishti Trace (video capture and traceability) and Drishti Flow (line analytics). The company was acquired by Apple in September 2023 and no longer operates an independent public website, developer portal, or API surface — its domains (drishti.com, drishti.ai) no longer resolve to a live product.

Drishti Technologies is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Manufacturing, Computer Vision, Artificial Intelligence, and Video Analytics.
