GrayCyan

Nishkam Batta is the Founder and CEO of GrayCyan, an applied AI company focused on manufacturing operations and enterprise workflow automation. He also serves as the Editor-in-Chief of HonestAI Magazine, a publication dedicated to responsible and accountable enterprise AI. GrayCyan builds human-in-the-loop AI systems designed specifically for manufacturing environments.

The company integrates AI directly into ERP, MES, WMS, and other production systems to streamline administrative coordination, scheduling, quality reporting, and multi-step operational workflows. Its approach emphasizes explainable AI, audit trails, defined approval paths, and clear accountability so that AI supports production teams without disrupting governance.

GrayCyan develops agentic ERP systems capable of executing structured tasks within approved guardrails, escalating exceptions to human operators when required. The company focuses on measurable operational outcomes, traceability, and structured deployment models that align with existing manufacturing infrastructure rather than replacing it.
