Porolis Launches AI Gem Report in Networking Event with Ceylon Gem & Jewellery Traders Association

8-Oct-2026 | Sri Lanka / Singapore

Porolis Technologies (Singapore) together with Gemmological Institute of Colombo (GIC Gem Lab) hosted a networking conference with members of the Ceylon Gem & Jewellery Traders Association (CGJTA) at The Eden Beruwela. The Chairman of CGJTA, Mr Rizwan Nayeem graced the event, attended by top traders, lapidarist and miners of Sri Lanka. The occasion also celebrated the 1st anniversary of Porolis’ GemLUX® Xperience outlet in Beruwela, offering gemstone scanning service using its ground-breaking AI-powered KROMA™ device.

During the talk by Porolis CEO Vincent Wong, he highlighted that AI is a ‘once in a lifetime opportunity’ that Sri Lanka can take leadership in to transform the industry. Todate, the GemLUX® Xperience outlets in Sri Lanka have scanned more than 1,000 gemstones, and traders benefit from the transparency and scientific records (colour, inclusion, fingerprint) saved on the cloud. Porolis also announced that after 2 years of deep R&D collaboration with reputable gem labs, Porolis has now launched the world’s first AI Gem Report.

Participants also witnessed a demonstration of how a gemstone is scanned using the KROMA™ and LUXA™ devices, and the videos of its appearance & inclusion are uploaded to the cloud for AI analysis. Proprietary AI-models in turn generate the gemstone’s unique-ID fingerprint and AI Gem Report.

“Our team of engineers and gemmologists are extremely proud of the innovation and how AI can bring impactful change to the global gemstone industry,” added Vincent Wong. “We offer to traders, end-consumers and enthusiasts a cloud-based AI-as-a-Service (AIaaS) solution, where the convenience and low-cost will help democratize gemstone identification and authentication.”
