Optimize language applications with human feedback
Scale’s Smart Port Lab will serve as an incubator, bringing together leading technology firms that specialize in fields including autonomy, 3D mapping, and networking to develop AI-enabled ship-to-shore operations, digital tracking of assets in and around the port, and equipping terminal operators with complete visibility of their shipping logistics and supply chain networks from the comfort of a command center.For more details, read the official partnership announcement.
What is Scale doing for the Port of Ponce?
Scale is building a Smart Port Lab where AI-enabled infrastructure will be researched, built, and exported to shipping ports globally. The Smart Port Lab will feature autonomous inspection systems, container identification and tracking, AI-powered document processing, drive-by-wire cranes and bomb carts, and advanced surveillance.
Why the Port of Ponce?
The Port of Ponce was recently hit by a series of natural disasters, including the 2020 earthquakes, Hurricane Maria, and, most recently, Hurricane Fiona. Scale’s investment to establish a Smart Port Lab at Port Ponce is an opportunity to bring global shipping and logistics customers to the local area, increase port activity, and aid in the economic revitalization of the city of Ponce.
How will Scale build the Smart Port?
Scale is partnering with the Ponce Port Authority and investing more than $2 million to transform the Port of Ponce from a FEMA designated disaster site to a Smart Port Lab. AI-enabled Smart Port infrastructure and technology augments workers’ capabilities, enhances operational processes at the port, and modernizes shipping and transportation equipment where innovation has traditionally been stagnant.
AI to Automate and Augment Your Operations
Scale’s Smart Port Lab at the Port of Ponce will include AI-enabled technology to improve every facet of port operations. Aerial drones and other sensors will identify new containers and track them as they progress through the port, while drive-by-wire cranes and bomb carts improve operational efficiency, and containers are stacked efficiently with Scale’s AI-assisted logic
How Scale is Building the Smart Port Lab in Ponce
Legacy ports are inefficient, expensive to run, and can be challenging work environments for employees. With Scale’s Smart Port solutions, we bring the power of AI to help you reduce your costs, increase your throughput, and improve the working environment.
Autonomous Inspection System
Scale’s autonomous inspection system automatically deploys and operates, minimizing hardware downtime and accelerating container inspection. Scales advanced computer vision models ensure fast and accurate inspections.
Digital Receipt Registry
Every stage of container movements is documented using camera systems and computer vision, OCR, and custom logic. The Digital Receipt Registry confirms and verifies container movements, allowing ports to improve throughput, cut down on inventory discrepancies, and reduce insurance costs.
Level 1 Hardware Autonomy Kit
Scale’s level 1 autonomy kits enable operators so they can maneuver STS, gantry cranes, and bomb carts from remote locations with the assistance of additional sensors, cameras, and augmented reality annotations to safely increase productivity.
Computer Vision (CV)-Assisted Surveillance
Scale’s CV-assisted surveillance provides automated detection and tracking of every person, vehicle, and piece of equipment on your port.

Scale Combines Model-based and Human-in-the-loop Techniques to Ensure High-quality Data
Multimodal Intelligence
Leverage all available data from drones, stationary cameras, and other sensors to have a 360-degree view of the entire port. Advanced 3D sensor fusion technology allows you to combine camera, video, LiDAR, and RADAR data into a single view.
Human + Machine Synthesis
We augment human capabilities with drive-by-wire cranes and carts make your workforce more efficient, while providing a more comfortable working environment.
Autonomous Tracking & Inspection
Scale’s autonomous tracking system uses drones with advanced computer vision capabilities to navigate your port, identify and track containers, and scan equipment on your port for damage. Your workforce no longer has to manually track containers or climb cranes to perform damage inspections.
