A key feature of Exiger’s AI technology is multi-tier supply chain visibility, enabling companies to trace components like aluminum or critical minerals from their source to the final product. The transparency delivered through Exiger’s platform analyzes supply chain tiers all the way to the hole-in-the-ground origin of materials. This level of clarity about item-level provenance is essential for informed decision-making and building resilience.

Tantalum, a metal used in the production of electronic components, has been flagged by Exiger’s platform for possible sourcing risks. As Daniels notes, “We can pinpoint not just where it’s coming from, but which industries are affected, what are the core products.” This intelligence is crucial in uncovering the origins of tantalum from areas with significant child labor concerns, like the Democratic Republic of Congo and Brazil. By identifying its applications in electronics and medical implants, Exiger’s AI empowers stakeholders to make informed actions against unethical supply chain practices.

Exiger’s Proactive Intelligence capabilities also assess macro-dynamics in supply chains to foresee potential shortages, helping industries prevent disruptions. It also analyzes supplier resilience, allowing stakeholders to evaluate suppliers’ capacities and financial health, among other third-party and supply chain risks. These features equip Hope for Justice — and Exiger customers — with the necessary tools to effectively combat modern slavery, leveraging powerful AI to drive significant change.
