Kioti Tractor, a division of Daedong-USA Inc., introduced Kioti Connect, a connected vehicle technology app designed to enhance connectivity, efficiency and peace of mind for Kioti equipment owners.
Kioti Connect provides users with real-time insights into equipment performance and location, enabling data-driven decisions that optimize operations. With advanced AI-powered predictive analytics, the system anticipates and prevents potential maintenance issues, reducing downtime and boosting overall productivity. Easy to use, the app provides seamless access to essential data and support, ensuring machine owners are connected and informed as they work.
“We’re excited to introduce this AI-powered predictive analytics tool to help machine owners anticipate and prevent maintenance issues before they occur, increasing uptime and overall efficiency,” said Youngjin Son, senior vice president and chief product technology officer of Daedong-USA, Inc., Kioti Tractor Division. “Designed with customer needs in mind, Kioti Connect takes control of managing equipment location and operational status, simplifying machine ownership, so operators can focus on the job at hand.”
The Kioti Connect app transforms the way operators work by keeping them better connected to machine status in real time. A key feature of Kioti Connect is real-time monitoring, providing immediate visibility to machine health, which in turn optimizes machine usage. Proactive alerts remind operators about scheduled maintenance tasks, like oil changes or air filter replacements, enhancing the health and lifespan of the machine. Soon, smart remote diagnostics will enable users to troubleshoot and identify issues remotely, reducing downtime by resolving issues quickly.
Additional services provided in the first phase of the app include the OpenAI AI language model. The GPT-based solution is tailored for the agricultural sector, providing customers with an efficient way to access a wide range of information related to agriculture practices and tractors.
Operators can track the machine location through their device, set up custom geofences and remotely enable restart inhibitors.
To further unlock the potential of their machines, owners will soon be able to utilize Kioti Connect to discover compatible attachments or access essential resources, like maintenance schedules, manuals and troubleshooting guides.
Currently, Kioti Connect is compatible with RX Series, HX Series, and compact construction models free of charge for the first three years, giving users the opportunity to experience its full range of features. After the initial period, customers will have the option to continue with a subscription or discontinue the service.
