Written By Debbie Mckeegan

PicoNext is thrilled to announce the launch of the PicoNext AI Assistant, a groundbreaking generative artificial intelligence capability designed to streamline the creation of Digital Product Passports (DPPs).

As regulatory standards tighten globally, this industry-first innovation is poised to save companies significant time and cost by automating the summarization of raw product data into compliant, user-friendly DPPs.

Transforming DPP Workflows

Integrated seamlessly with the DPP Planner, the PicoNext AI Assistant enables organizations to upload raw, unstructured product data in various formats.

The AI quickly distills this data into summaries for sustainability attributes, such as materials origin, carbon footprint, environmental impact, and recycling, all aligned with regulatory standards.

This innovative tool not only accelerates DPP creation but also reduces the need for costly, bespoke integrations with enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems.

Real-World Impact

Weartek, a leading manufacturer of performance apparel for industries like mining, oil and gas, and emergency services, has already experienced the benefits of the PicoNext AI Assistant.

"Using the PicoNext AI Assistant, we quickly distilled complex, raw data for our Weartek 4836 line into customer-facing Digital Product Passports," said Nick Pearce, Founder and Managing Director of Weartek. "This AI-powered solution allowed us to differentiate Weartek with potential customers using our sustainability data, at a fraction of the time and cost."

Meeting Regulatory Compliance

Businesses are increasingly preparing Digital Product Passports not only to engage sustainability-focused customers but also to comply with new regulations in the European Union and other jurisdictions.

"With the new PicoNext AI Assistant, brands can dramatically reduce the cost and time it takes to prepare DPPs through generative AI that automatically summarizes key product data points into templates aligned with emerging regulatory standards," said Dave Dickson, Founder of PicoNext.

Key Features of the PicoNext AI Assistant
