Kitov Systems

Kitov Systems is a visual inspection technology company founded in 2014 by CTO and Founder Dr. Yossi Rubner as a spin-off of RTC Vision, which had been developing advanced computer vision algorithms for over a decade. The company set out to build a universal system that can be intuitively trained by a non-expert to inspect almost any product and to effectively replace humans at the tedious task of finding and judging defects across production lines. Its tagline is "Boost Your Quality with Smart Visual Inspection."

The company is headquartered at 17 Ha-Mefalsim St., Intergreen Building 4th floor, Petah Tikva, Israel, with a second office at Kitov Systems Inc., 6937 Village Parkway, Dublin, California, USA. Kitov Systems employs under 49 people, and both its minimum budget and average hourly rate are listed as "on inquiry." The founding year is 2014.

Kitov Systems provides fully automated visual inspection solutions powered by 3D computer vision algorithms, artificial intelligence, deep learning, advanced robotics, and big data analytics. Its services span AI development, software development, and big data analytics, with systems designed for a broad range of production lines and markets. The solutions help manufacturers reduce costs, improve quality, and boost operational efficiency as they adopt digital transformation in the Industry 4.0 world.

The company serves manufacturers globally, with its systems deployed by Tier 1 customers in Europe, China, Malaysia, USA, Mexico, Japan, and Israel. Known clients include Flex, Mellanox, Rafael, and Jabil. The initial product offering, Kitov-CorePlus, was launched in mid-2016 as the first smart visual inspection product on the market.

Kitov-CorePlus received a platinum-level award for innovation by Vision Systems Design Magazine in 2018 in recognition of its breakthrough technology.
