Distributed Manufacturing Intelligence

Know what happened on your line, why it happened, and what to do next.

DMI is an industrial AI platform that unifies data from your equipment, plant systems and technical documents into one intelligence layer. It runs inside your plant, alongside the systems you already have.

The problem

Manufacturers have plenty of data. Getting answers from it is slow.

The information needed to explain a quality issue or an unplanned stop usually exists. It's spread across systems that don't connect, so investigations take days of manual work.

Fragmented systems

Process data, batch context, quality records, maintenance history and documents each sit in a different system with different names.

Slow root-cause analysis

Engineers spend hours pulling exports and building spreadsheets, and the problem often recurs before the investigation is finished.

Reacting to noise

Trends show that a value moved, not whether the process changed. Teams end up adjusting stable processes and missing real signals.

Tribal knowledge

Troubleshooting know-how lives in manuals nobody can find and in the heads of experienced staff who are approaching retirement.

Cloud constraints

Sending every tag to the cloud is costly and slow, and it's often prohibited by IP, regulatory or security requirements.

Rip-and-replace fatigue

New platforms often require replacing systems that work fine. Plants need intelligence on top of what they already run.

How we solve it

One intelligence layer across your whole operation

DMI connects to your existing systems, builds a process-aware model of your plant, and applies statistics and AI on top of it. Your data stays in the plant.

  • Works with what you have: MES, QMS, LIMS, CMMS, ERP, historians, SCADA, PLCs, OPC UA and MQTT.
  • Process-aware: a single ISA-95-aligned map of your plant lets analysis follow cause and effect upstream and downstream.
  • Plant-local AI: core intelligence runs on site, so it keeps working without Internet access and your data stays under your control.
  • Human in the loop: DMI shows its evidence and recommends actions. Your engineers make the decisions.

Connect

Discover equipment, tags and systems across sites without moving the data.

Contextualize

Build a unified namespace and process graph of your operation.

Analyze

Run SPC, root-cause analysis, OEE and anomaly detection along the process.

Act

Ask questions in plain language and get evidence-backed recommendations.

Product direction

From process discovery to approved action

DMI doesn't just automate predefined workflows. It understands manufacturing conditions, investigates problems, recommends responses and orchestrates the actions your team approves.
