AELZIA NEXO · AI platform for pig farming

About Aelzia

Aelzia develops NEXO, an AI platform for early detection and operational response on pig farms. We connect available water and environmental data and staff observations with alerts, responsible people, actions and reviews.

From information to action

From information to action

NEXO connects three functions: Detect, Act and Verify. The aim is to shorten the time between a signal and a check, and preserve continuity of follow-up across people, shifts and production stages.

NEXO Detect

Integrates readings and records and uses explainable rules and statistical methods to flag operational deviations in water and environmental conditions.

NEXO Act

Organises alerts and observations into cases with responsible people, actions and reviews, according to the farm’s protocols.

NEXO Verify

Keeps changes in readings, staff checks and the case history. Clinical assessment and animal health decisions remain with the veterinarian.

From a need to a tailored solution

From a need to a tailored solution

On selected projects, Paulo has advised clients on configurations, dimensions, materials, compatibility and installation requirements. He has also helped create new products developed around specific customer needs.

This experience brings technical advice into commercial work: understanding a need, translating it into requirements, comparing alternatives and coordinating the people who can turn it into a viable solution.

Over the years he has visited hundreds of trade fairs and exhibitions, meeting manufacturers and exploring technologies and applications across industrial settings. His executive and financial education complements this with an understanding of investment, risk, costs and business decisions.
