The Product of the Year competition will include a live seven-minute pitch and a real-time audience vote of this year’s top product. POY celebrates the innovative products developed within the past twelve months and provides a platform for entrepreneurs and companies to receive free advice, major product promotion and podium time in front of thousands of viewers. In 2024, the live stream reached a global audience of more than 1,500 viewers.
Finalists are:
- BioAssembly™ Platform with BAB Intelligence™ from Advanced Solutions Life Sciences (ASLS) – The BioAssembly™ Platform with BAB Intelligence™ is the latest release of the BioAssemblyBot® (BAB), a biofabrication/biomanufacturing robot used in the rapidly growing regenerative medicine industry to help repair or replace damaged or diseased tissues and organs. The BioAssembly™ Platform with BAB Intelligence™ involves the integration of tissue incubation and imaging with BAB to perform GMP-level tissue manufacturing at the point-of-care enabling local and regional hospitals to manufacture patient-specific therapeutic tissues for regenerative medicine applications. New innovations entail an “agentic AI” interface accompanied by digital twin modeling that eliminates any programming requirements. Users simply explain to BAB the tissue manufacturing steps and parameters. BAB then assembles the automation workflow producing a tissue. With these innovations, the BAB Platform acts with intention by seeing, planning, and building the therapeutic biology from design to function.
- CrewHero from CrewHero Inc – CrewHero is a frontline operations/crew management software platform designed specifically for service-based businesses. It simplifies daily operations by streamlining dispatch, fleet maintenance, communication, and time-off requests, people and asset databasing. The product replaces the inefficiencies of whiteboards, group texts, and inaccurate excel databases. Frontline team members log in with only a cell phone number, receive assignments in their native language, and stay directly connected to managers, their crew and company updates. The software is designed to assist growing service-based businesses who are scaling revenue with the ability to scale their operations at the same rate. The focus is to assist with the daily coordination, communication, fleet maintenance and culture support of what it takes to operate the complexities of a growing field service business. Although CrewHero was born from landscaping, its applicability extends into any service-based fleet business.
- Laser Marking Tool from Lase-X – Our flagship product, the Laser Marking Tool (LMT) enables manufacturers to embed compliant, machine-readable identifiers (e.g., MIL-STD-130) directly onto mission-critical components during production. By automating serialization and eliminating paper record-keeping within existing processes, Lase-X aims to enhance traceability and strengthen supply chain transparency across regulated industries such as aerospace, defense, and medical devices.
- PredictX and PredictLung from Bio-AI Health Inc – PredictLung is a novel AI-powered digital biomarker test that can analyze digital pathology H&E and IHC stained tissue biopsy images and predict a range of biomarkers. We have successfully developed prototype applications for a range of biomarkers in Lung Cancer NSCLC including RET, ROS-1, EGFR, IB6, CD3, B7H4. We developed this powerful application using our PredictX Platform, which is software that was initially developed on a local server based in BioAI office in Goffstown, NH. We expanded our R&D and services to develop applications now on hosted cloud environment. Our data sciences team, Pathology team, translational scientists, and Project management team can all work remotely to develop these applications. The goal of PredictLung is to rapidly identify biomarkers for patient tumor tissue at time of diagnosis, to guide them to the right drug therapy quicker.
- YULLR from YULLR Inc. – YULLR is an AI-powered video automation platform for skiing and mountain sports. Using in-house trained computer vision models built from tens of thousands of labeled frames, YULLR identifies, tracks, and tags athletes across multiple cameras in real time. Through edge computing, video is processed directly on the mountain for sub-second clip creation, synchronized with live timing for instant viewing. Proprietary tools include FrostLines, which visualize each skier’s path; Overlaps, which compare runs side-by-side; and TimeSync, which aligns footage frame-by-frame for precise analysis. Designed for simplicity and engagement, YULLR connects cameras, timing, and analytics through an intuitive dashboard. Its technology scales beyond ski racing to mountain biking, trail running, and snowboarding, providing real-time video and engagement year-round.
“Through the Product of the Year competition, we continue to see extraordinary talent and innovation thriving across New Hampshire,” said Julie Demers, executive director of the NH Tech Alliance. “Each entry demonstrates what’s possible when creativity meets technology, and we’re proud to present that work to audiences throughout the U.S. and beyond.”
