The Perceive Platform is a cloud software service (SaaS) implemented by the Perceive project. It connects all the Perceive tools in a scalable system. Designed with cultural heritage professionals, curators, educators, and enthusiasts in mind, it brings groundbreaking technologies within easy reach to transform how we engage with historical collections.

The platform has three components: The Backend (called PerceiveAPI), the Worker and the Frontend (called Perceive Portal). The Backend handles all user management, user transactions and delegates job orders to the Workers. The Workers execute resource heavy jobs such as image processing and GenAI tasks (Light Damage Estimation, Degreening, etc) on specialized h/w. Finally, the Frontend handles user interactions through an intuitive web interface.

Behind the scenes, the Perceive platform seamlessly manages complex computational tasks, intelligently distributing work across its robust infrastructure, ensuring quick turnaround and smooth performance even at high demand. Its features allow teams and institutions to work efficiently together, enhancing research, exhibitions, and educational activities. With the Perceive Platform, users can spend less time navigating technical complexities and more time exploring, sharing, and preserving cultural heritage.
